    Rolled oats (real oatmeal, not the instant one). It keeps you full for a while. I dice one apple in mine + cinnamon + water = deliciousness!!!!

    Taste is subjective. I'm not a cereal eater, but in the summer I don't mind mixing raw oats with yogurt, berries, seeds, nuts etc once in a while.

    The one that you think tastes the best. I had a bowl of raisin bran last night and a bowl of Reese's Puffs a few nights ago. Delicious. I plan on eating like this for the rest of my life so I'm not going to introduce foods that I'll only ever eat while I'm losing weight.

    It really is all about how you plan your day and what your nutritional needs happen to be.
    There are members on here that eat Lucky Charms and then work the rest of the day to get what they need.

    I would recommend cereals that have fiber and low sugar: example - KASHI Go Lean Original or KASHI Berry Blossom.

    None really. Some non-flavored oatmeal would be good, other than that I would avoid cereal.

    Honey Bunches of Oats is surprisingly low in sugar... hmm, actually, its the generic brand. But two servings is quite filling, and only 260 calories and 12 grams of sugar. Throw in the protein from the milk and you're good to go

    I mix chocolate Cheerios with peanut butter Cheerios, but I have it as a snack at night. A serving size isn't enough to get me through the morning. Healthy? Meh - but I don't care as long as it fits into my calorie allotment.

    I don't know. I am @ Special K, Kellogg's, Cheerios person. I read the labels. Depending on what you are looking for.

    I like Special K with Protein. And I'll sometimes add some raisins to sweeten it up!

    The kind you like? Personally, I've been eating granola lately. I make sure to weight it though, cereal portions are tricky.

    none/all of them.

    I am a cereal junky and tend to overdo it, even on the healthiest, driest, most boring muesli-type stuff.

    For me cereal isn't a great meal option because I don't consume animal milk so really it's just some simple carbs that leave me hungry less than an hour later, so unless I'm mixing it with some protein and fat, I try to eat it as an occasional treat.

    French Toast Crunch is my :love:

    Fiber One original bran cereal helps me reach my daily fiber needs and I find it delicious! Also Kashi GoLean original :) It's got a bit of protein and some good fiber as well ^_^ It's not super delicious, but it's great!

    You can eat whatever cereal you want if you track the macros and calories and they fit into your daily goals.
