    I love the post great grains cereals. It's higher in calories but it's 4g of fiber per serving. It's one of the very few cereals that actually makes me feel full after 1 serving.

    I go with 1 1/4 cup of kixs for 110calories! and 1/2 cup 1% milk. So good, a lot of food per serving and it gives me a sweet fix!

    try Optimum Nutrition's hydro whey mixed with ice + coffee + almond milk instead of carb-heavy cereal.

    Or pour that over some carb heavy cereal :)

    I once had a chocolate whey shake over cocoa rice krispies. it sort of blew my mind.

    I think a chocolate whey shake over peanut butter puffs would be something I would only eat naked.

    I don't do cereal very often, but when I do I like Banana nut multi-grain cheerios, plain cheerios, honey bunches of oats with almonds, cracklin oat bran, rice krispies, and on the rare occasion I will cook up my own granola! These are the only cereals I eat, other then the hot cereals.

    I have not found a cereal other than proper Scottish oats / porridge (not ready brek style) that stops me getting hungry till lunch.

    Weetabix contain sugar as do most cereals and they cause a 'sugar crash' - I can just about get till 11am on weetabix so they are the one I have in the cupboard but honestly don't eat them often. If I do it's a banana on top for me and cold milk.

    Some whole grain and fiber cereals are high in calories, the things we are counting. Grape Nuts have no sugar, just malted barley and wheat. Quaker Life is pretty good, but has sugar in it. I am currently eating low sugar instant oatmeal. I do not eat sugar substitutes like sacrulose or NutraSweet. NutraSweet is aspartame and is a really bad sweetener, stay away from theses sweeteners.

    This is making me hungry - and since I can't have milk or gluten - also quite sad.
    I guess I could go grab a spoon, some peanut butter, and some chocolate pea protein, but it doesn't sound quite the same.

    i love life cereal, but the milk that goes with it does not like me, so i gave it up

    kashi go lean is a good quality nutritious cereal and can be eaten without milk

    Since discovering Dorset Cereals I'd have to recommend them! The fruit based ones have 30-50% fruit, lots of fibre and the sugar is from the fruit (haven't got the details to hand right now though) they also do nut and seed types too. Gorgeous with milk, pouring yoghurt etc and you still get the sweet kick!
    Good luck finding one you like :smile:

    Just been on their website and for Simply Fruity Museli the nutritional values are:

    corn chex

    I used to love rice chex (I have celiac's, so most cereals aren't good)... and then I found out I was allergic to rice! CRUEL CRUEL WORLD. I'm such a cereal lover, too :(

    cinnamon life used to be my favorite.

    If you like the mini shredded wheats, try Kashi's Island Vanilla. Those Kellogg frosty wheats were my favorite until I tried Island Vanilla.

    I love Raisin Brand (store brand is great, but Costco has Post on sale all the time) with a handful of blueberries or strawberry halves and half cup of 1% milk. Makes for 60 grams of Carbs which my dietician has me on.
