interesting observation

  • i noticed something today: i have been eating 2 c shredded wheat w berries but today i had 2 c of bran instead...both have 10 g fiber and yet only the bran ran directly through
  • I ate a cup and a quarter of shredded wheat and bran cold cereal with a cup of skim every day for breakfast the whole summer. I was at a plateau basically for all of July, August and part of September. I went back to oatmeal for breakfast last week and lost 3 pounds. I'm not sure what to think, but I think the shredded wheat doesn't metabolize great for me.
  • wow thats interesting.
  • Does anyone eat Kashi cereal? What cereals are best?
  • No I dont eat Kashi , is there one that is core?? I eat oatmeal most mornings cuz I find it fills me up till lunch. I tried shredded wheat last week thinking of a change but it was hard to get down....like eating straw. Andrea I dont have trouble *going* at the best of times so not going to touch the bran...haha (TMI SORRY)
  • lol pa!

    i actually like the bite sized wheat w strawb. n splenda. kashi isnt core

    bran
    shredded wheat
    fiber one
    puffed wheat/puffed rice
  • I really miss the spoon sized shredded wheat and bran. Sigh.
  • Vickie, I really like the Shredded Wheat and Bran too. Yum! It's too expensive for me to buy every week though.

  • Jewel/Albertson's has it on sale this week 4 boxes for $10.00. I have 4 boxes on my shelf right now. Since I'm only eating it once in a while now, I'm not buying any more.
  • trader joes has it too for a good price. i dont buy it that often bc i only eat a few bowls a week bc i eat eggs too. plus i started alt. the bran w the wheat like yest. i had bran tomm ill have wheat
  • Kashi puffed cereal is core. I sometimes sneak in Heart to Heart, even though it isn't core. My DH eats that like it's going out of style.
  • i read somewhere at 3fc where someone was nuking shredded wheat. well, i tried it. i nuked it 2 minutes in my ff milk. it was good!!
  • yea i read that too... thanks
