    For cold cereal, I like the Kashi cereals. Go Lean Crunch is very tasty as are some of their other varieties. They have quite a lot fiber and protein which is a good way to start the day! Saying that, I often have cold cereal and milk after a workout. My breakfast is typically high fiber cinnamon swirl oatmeal and cheese or other protein source.

    Oatmeal (not instant) is fantastic because it has so much fiber! Keeps you full forever. I usually have it with some protein.

    Kashi Go Lean (original) is also really good. 13g protein, 10g fiber, 1g fat. Hard to find a better cereal! http://www.kashi.com/products/golean_original

    I like Go Lean Honey Almond Flax--high fiber and protein, but it is higher in calories. Go Lean Original is also good and very high fiber and protein. I will also eat things like cheerios and add Fiber One to it. But, my favorite cereal is Cinnamon Toast Crunch :0

    I have been trying to follow the alli diet plan that is in their book ( without the pills) and they recommend whole grain cherrios I think it is like a cup and half with a peice of fruit and some fat free milk it also talks about raisin bran and grape but flakes. Hope this helps

    Strictly for taste, Cinnamon Burst Cheerios is the best. The calories aren't any worse than regular Cheerios.

    I like Post Raisin Bran. It's one of the cheapest and has a lot of fiber. The raisins take care of my sweet fix for the morning too.

    I like Cascadian Farms Hearty Morning Fiber. It tastes good, you get a nice 3/4 cup portion, and it's got a ton of fiber in it. It does have 10g sugar but that's not too bad for a cereal, it makes up for it with 9g fiber and 5g protein. It keeps me full and happy.

    I find that oatmeal by itself is not amazing, but when you add in a diced apple, some cinnamon and blueberries it becomes amazing :)

    Kashi GoLean Crunch for boxed cold cereals - But hands down - Oatmeal (from a can) mixed with fruit and vanilla protein powder is my favorite of all. Fills you up, keeps you warm - loaded with everything good and nothing bad.

    Fiber One Honey Clusters....

    Serving is 1 CUP (awesome), cal 160, fat 1.5, sodium 230, potassium 180, fiber 13, sugar 6 (but it is so sweet!), protein 3.

    Whole grain wheat, corn bran, corn starch, inulin?, sugar, whole grain oats......

    There are cereals with better stats, but not better stats and better taste IMO. :drinker:

    Im a Special K - Fruit and Yogurt type of gal myself. I need a lot of Iron and it gives me a great boost of it :) Plus, I enjoy the tasty dry or with milk. I never was a big cereal eater, but this stuff is great. Or, just plan old Cheerios is another great one :)

    I don't eat grains so what I do is slivered raw almonds, dried or fresh fruit, unsweetned coconut flakes and almond milk. YUMMY I would not change it at all. I do sometimes use other nuts like walnut, pecans, depends what I have. Just no peanuts I don't eat those either.

    I looove Kellogg's FiberPlus Antioxidants Berry Yogurt Crunch! One cup has 10 grams of fiber, about 40% of you daily needs. Also the Kashi Go Lean Crunch is another one that's high in fiber and tastes great. In fact, after this post I think I'm going to go have bowl of cereal for breakfast.:smile:
