Hi, I am looking to add some breakfast cereal to my diet. Are there some healthy low carb options?

    Cereal = grain = carbs. Tampering is usually unhealthy. Decide if you want low carb or cereal.

    Oatmeal is a good option, not the instant or quick but old fashion rolled oats or steel cut.

    I agree with everyone above. Oatmeal is the best option if you want a 'cereal'.

    I tried Kashi Go Lean for awhile, thinking I was smart and doing things right. But if you look into the articles/research on it . . . sadly, no boxed cereal is good, regardless of how they market themselves. Which pains me to say, because I absolutely love cereal!

    Oatmeal, eggs, yogurt (separate or all three) are good choices for breakfast.

    I eat oatmeal with PB powder, chia seeds, and honey or agave. Keeps me full.

    Probably not. You can try those protein kasha cereals but I'm sure they have a lot of carbs as well. I eat fiber one, plain bran cereal. It has I think 50 g of carbs for a cup.

    i like kashi go lean, oatmeal and bare naked granola (as a once in a while treat, it's pricey!)

    whoops, the brand is totally "bear naked" not "bare naked" haha
    some of their flavors are healthier than others so you should check the labels

    Many cereals are good. They're just not low carb, including oatmeal.

    That's wonderful! And what I am really looking for is a yummy boxed cereal with least amount of sugar so that I would do as less damage as possible to my diet progress. I think K brand and Go Lean brand are two the most suitable options. :)
