| What are your' cereal choices??
I am one month out and now that i'm on regular foods... i dont like to eat things that are too heavy..sometimes at night i'd prefer cereal and milk... tonight i did raisin brand... 1 cup with 1/2 cup fat free milk....like the box suggests, not the usual 3 bowls of sugary sweet stuff i used to eat...and i felt satisfied...what i'm wondering is...what are some other cereal choices you all have tried..... i'm on a mission to eat good....but need a little help with the healthy!! thanks anyone who can respond.... Happy New Year!!

I like Kashi Go Lean Crunch or Kelloggs Smart Start with Bordens 2% Protein Milk. Typically I throw some blueberries or strawberries in as well.

I like plain Special K with skim milk. Also, the organic Rice Krispies are good too.

the special k chocolate is very good, it is still high in protien and low in calories, give you that little sweetness. also special k cinnamon/pecan is excellent!!!

I go for little to no sugar and HIGH fiber. I've been eating plain cheerios and also Weetabix biscuits. Due to the whole grain, they are naturally sweet to me. I'll try to mix them with higher protein soy milk.

All the Kashi cereals have more protein and fiber in them than other cereals. I eat that every day. I need my fiber. I like the Crunch and the one called "Good Friends"

I really enjoy the Special K Protein Plus. It has 10 g protein in 1 serving and keeps me full longer.
