    Cheerios are very low sugar. Then you can add fruit -- bananas, blueberries, etc. - to make it sweeter, more filling, up the nutritional value.

    Fiber One 80 calorie! Comes in Honey Squares and a new chocolate flavor....3g sugar for 1 serving, 10g fiber, 1g fat, 1g protein, 25g carbs...I think they are nummy!
    Just bought the choc last week... gonna try this week. The NI looked fab and 'Fiber One' products (bars, browies, etc.) have never disappointed me yet!

    Homemade granola is crunchy.

    Fiber one is the cereal from hell and is nasty tree bark.

    I mean whatever floats your boat though people.. Crunchy 80 calorie tree bark? Yummo?

    Cereal's gross.

    Why not try to STOP eating it. It's a waste of calories and doesn't even fill you up or have the same nutrients as eggs and veggies do.

    weetabix sprinkled with aspartame

    aspartame is not a good sub for sugar. stick with the real deal and not the artifical subs as they tend to cause other health issues over the long haul.

    There is absolutely no scientific proof that aspartame causes any health issues.

    Fiber one :) I like stuff with high fiber because you can subtract fiber from carbohydrates. Being Pre-diabetic, its nice!

    not trying to troll, but assuming you aren't diabetic, does it really matter? I mean, no matter if your cereal tastes like cardboard or candy, it is all carbs. Some has more fiber, so I guess that is a plus but I have yet to come across a cereal that I would really consider healthy or remotely balanced.

    Your body will EASILY convert the carbs in cereal to... sugar.

    btw, not saying not to eat cereal, just trying to understand the mindset.

    I'll believe that when I get a report from a reputable and scholarly source or even something from a website that doesn't end in .COM.

    I love the new 80 calorie Fiber one chocolate cereal. I was very hesistant to try it since I can't stand the regular fiber one cereal. Much to my surprise it was good. 9 grams of fiber, low in sugar!

    If you are against artificial sugar you may want to stay away from it since it has sucraose in it.

    Oatmeal is very very easy on the Microwave. Just the big box of oatmeal. Not the quick cook kind.

    1/4 C oatmeal, 1/2 c water.

    50% power for 2.3 minutes.

    Add salt or pair with fruit. I usually do the fruit later in the morning.

    Incredible how full it makes you feel all morning. I have to force myself to eat the snack at 10 AM.

    My husband does 1/2 C oatmeal with blueberries(frozen or fresh) every morning. Same time in the microwave.

    Good luck.

    Three Eggs, over easy.... Yumm!

    This! Seriously, eggs are fast and easy. It takes me 3 minutes to fry 2 eggs in the morning. I use a cast iron skillet, so clean up is as easy as wiping it with a paper towel. Worst case, 5 minutes if I need to clean the pan with water and re-season. I sometimes eat the eggs while I'm getting dressed... multi-task, baby! Or, I make them, throw them into container and take them to work. They're still warm when I get there.

    And, eggs fill me up. I hated eating cereal in the morning. I would eat it, and seriously feel hungrier after. I never ever felt full, and was hungry for snacks an hour later. Eggs keep me happy until lunch and beyond.

    Cluck Cluck!
