I like All Bran. My husband gets a variety of high fiber or high flax cereals from Trader Joe's that he likes quite a bit (I haven't tried them since I like my All Bran).
Welcome to the forums. I like cereal, too. My diet allows me to eat a version of honey nut oats (kinda like Honey Nut Cherrios) and it won't adversely affect my diabetes or weight loss plan.
Ooohhh...good question! I love cereal too, but dont know which to eat...especially since I don't like boring cereal.
I like Banana Nut Crunch, Raisin Bran...stuff like that--but don't really know if any of it is actually any good for me.
frankly.. boxed cereal is all pretty similar with a few exceptions. the "boring" ones, lol. i eat life cereal. kelloggs raisin bran has 190 cal/cup and 1.3 grams of fat. 342 mg of sodium, and a whopping 17.2 grams of sugar. now look at lucky charms 122 cal/cup, 1.1 grams of fat, 204 mg of sodium, and 11 grams of sugar. not how you'd expect them to look right?
cereal is probably about 1/3 of what i eat. like i said, i eat life cereal which is only 6g of sugar and 150 mg of sodium/serving. as far as breakfast cereals go.. theyre all really pretty similar. unless you go with whole oats or hot cereals, you really can choose any one you like.
Welcome!
I like High Fibre Crisp. It's a product by Wheatties. It's got alot of different types of cereal in it and you can't eat it fast because it needs to soften a bit in some milk. It's also good in yogurt. I like Bran Buds in my yogurt too. they both need to be left for a bit before eating which is perfect for me because I can do my makeup in the morning while it sits.
I love Special K and Honey Nut Cheerios.
Stay away from Raisin Bran, it is a big no no.
It has the most sugar in it ! I think it's something like 2 whole cups in ever box. So along with their "two scoops" of raisins also comes the sugar
Wow thanks guys. Where do we find some best recipes on oatmeals? Planning to make out of cookies. You might say I am an addict on oatmeals. well, I AM.

Hi all! I usually eat cereal every morning...alternating cherrios, rice krispies and special k. I only eat 1/2 cup with 3 oz of milk and it seems to be really working with the weight loss. Lost 3 lbs since Tuesday....very excited and motivated! 41 lbs to meet goal!
I like the Kashi Autumn Wheat - basically shredded wheat. Put a little milk on and sweeten with Splenda - MMMMM! If I have a serving of that in the morning I don't feel like eating any lunch - it really fills me up for quite awhile and I push back lunch an hour or so.
Cereals craving
