Favorite Low Calorie Cereals

I am looking for some low calorie cereal (1 cup cereal= 120 calories or less without milk) options. I already love Special K cereal with strawberries and I tried the Kashi 7 whole grain cereal.

I particularly love cereals that go great with fruit.

What are some other good ones?

    Instead of Special K Redberries, I get Kashi Strawberry Fields. I like it better plus it doesn't have HFCS. :heart:

    My favorite is Multigrain Cheerios. Only 110 cal for a cup, no HFCS and lightly sweetened with only 6g of sugar. They'd go great with fruit!

    I prefer Kashi Honey Sunshine. Reminds me a little bit of captin crunch and it is only 100 calories for 3/4 cup. I like to add bannana to it.

    try the other special k cereals. im really liking the cinnamon pecan. the fruit and yogurt is pretty good too. i tried the blueberry.... not as great. if you crave a chocolate fix, the chocately delight is good. all are low-cal, and have the protein, low sodium etc we need too.
