Any cereal that has less than 5g of sugar per serving and atleast 2 g. of fiber per serving are your best bets!! Those nutrition labels.....should become your best friend!! (while honey nut cheerios, trix and fruit loops...shouldnt)

The cereal suggestions definitely come in handy since I'm going food shopping tomorrow.

I like Barbara's Grain Shop to mix in with plain yogurt, fruit, and a tablespoon of nuts.

I just tried Kashi Heart-to-Heart recently, and it was really good. I'd bought it for my son as a healthier alternative to Cheerios, but he didn't eat them.

I also like Weetabix.

A little bit of low sugar granola, mixed into plain ff yogurt, add some chopped walnuts, is a great snack or breakfast. Just measure the granola carefully--it can be a big source of fat calories depending on the brand and portion size.

I usually buy the "Old Fashioned" oatmeal in the big cylinder-shaped box - if they're out, I'll get the "Quick" oats in the same type of box but I like the old fashioned kind better - it's 'heartier' than the quick kind.

Either way, it's about 3 minutes in the microwave, start to finish.

I don't like anything in plain oatmeal except butter flavor (fat-free butter spray) and a little bit of equal sweetener.

But with the instant oatmeal, I like the fruit and cream varieties. I buy the "low sugar" instant.
