Missy you've been around this board for a long time. You can't tell me you haven't learned any of these things.
First off, choose one program and stick with it. As long as you keep doing it, it will work. Everytime someone on this board posts a different idea you change your program like its gonna be the magical pill you've been waiting for.
So in regards to cardio, anything you do will of course help. Just keep doing it when you can fit it in. If you run for 45 min. you probably won't lose muscle, but you won't gain any either. And no its not gonna burn your ab fat. You've been here long enough to know that you can't just spot reduce fat. But yes, it should lower your overall bodyfat percentage.
Yes, if you don't eat carbs you need to replace the calories with fat and protein.
Whether oatmeal is good in the morning for you or not depends on your diet and you. If you are doing low carb then no. If you are doing moderate carb then it is a good choice.
Plus, if your doing low carbs, low should be lower than 50 and high should be higher than 120. And when you do low carb again- replace the calories with fat and protein, but not just flax. Eat nuts, have olive oil, fish oils, steak, something with fat.
Plus, you have to realize that when you do low carb your muscles are not full so even if you had a chance at seeing your abs, you won't because they are flat from having done no carbs.
