Cereal makes me toot, so only on weekends. When I'm staying home. And feel like pissing off my wife.

Yes, absolutely love my cereal! I either eat a regular bowl of cheerios or any other flavor of cheerios(I like multi-grain the most). Or I also like eating bran flakes with frozen blueberries. YUM!

Don't really eat cold cereal, but I do have oatmeal for breakfast quite regularly.

for several years I avoided cereals, because I thought they were wasting my bowel (I was ill every mornings at this time and Cereals+Milk just made the whole worse).

I started MFP 20 days ago and I tried Corn Flakes again.... 0 problem (not even a fart! XD)

Since I eat cereals almost every morning (twice the "recommended serving", otherwise I couldn't stand until noon). I try to avoid the ones with sugar. I basically eat Corn Flakes, Rice Crispies or Wheatabix.

I love cereal, but I don't eat it often. You're on the right track with your cereal choices, though. The brands you chose are healthy and you can eat them daily. One thing you can do if you're worried about too much carbs or sugar is to adjust your MFP daily food intake tracker to show you how many carbs and grams of sugar you're consuming - it gives you an estimate of what you should be consuming daily. I found it to be very helpful!

I didn't eat cereal for a while because I'd rather have something else. But I'm pregnant and on the WIC program, so I get free cereal, and if I get it, I'm going to eat it. On the voucher I just used, I picked up Quaker Oatmeal Squares with Brown Sugar and Crispix. My cereals of choice though are Special K Vanilla Almond and Quaker Crunchy Corn Bran. Those, however, are not available on the WIC program.

I never have cereal for breakfast. It just doesn't stay with me. I also try to eat protein with every meal so that lets cereal out. BUT, I have to admit that I have craved it so what I did was for a couple days I got some Corn Flakes and some Cheerios and had them for my afternoon snack with nonfat milk. I did measure them out and made sure I didn't overindulge....I used eat an entire box of Captin Crunch with Crunch berries in one sitting.....(Note...that is not the cereal I bought to have now!)

I can't have cereal in the mornings for the life of me. When I do, I end up feeling odd, sometimes even sick. But if it's later in the day, even the afternoon I'm able to. I don't have cereal a lot though.. Maybe twice a month.. But I do like cereal when I feel like having some.

Cereal doesn't really fill me up so I tend to go with oatmeal, or yogurt with Natures Path Pumpkin Granola

I like Ezekiel brand cereal...the orange or blue box. I'm a big cereal fanatic though, doesn't matter what kind, so I try not to keep it in the house. I eat oatmeal every morning instead.

so much cereal. I love Kashi brands and right now, Boo Berry!

Before watching what I eat, I would eat cereal. But unfortunately, cereal is HUGE trigger for me. I absolutely will not stop at one huge bowl. Hi I'm Shelly and I am a cereal-holic! lol

For the cereal-oholics:
Q1. Have you tried porridge or oat bran? It's a great filler.
Q2. Have you got a digital food scale? Use weight, not volume, for calorie dense foods. It's quicker to weigh anyway.
