I am looking for a filling cereal that tastes good and you get a lot for a little calories. Any suggestions?

    The new Fiber One 80 Calories cereal is pretty tasty. A serving is 3/4 cup and it has 10 g fiber and only 3 g sugar.

    Personally, I prefer Nature's Path Pumpkin Flax Granola every morning in my greek yogurt. It does have more calories but is also high in fiber and protein.

    I really like Kashi's Autumn Harvest shredded wheat cereal. 29 biscuits for 180 calories. You could eat 2/3s and still be pretty satisfied. It's so good, too.

    Try the unsweetened almond milk. 1 cup is only 35 calories :)

    My cereal picks
    Special K protein plus
    Cheerios (but they are high glycemic)
    Grape nuts (watch the portion size)

    Kix are 100 calories per 1 1/4 cup.

    "Great value toasted oats" are 100 calories per 1 cup. Cheerios are like 120 I think

    I heard puffed wheat is like 40-60 calories per 1 cup

    Kashi Go Lean (original) - massive protein & fiber numbers. Sprinkle this on your yogurt or eat it plain .... mmmm

    Kashi Heart to Heart Cinnamon (think cinnamon cheerios)

    Kashi Honey Sunshine (like a low sugar Cap'n Crunch)

    Special K ORIGINAL has really good protein numbers. Pair this with a piece of fruit .... for fiber

    Special K Fruit and Nut Medley is my favorite- it's SO good! I have it with skim milk. I actually have more than the suggested serving size, but it's working for me :)

    Hi, I like Kelloggs Special K Bliss. I have a sweet tooth and not really a cereal person but this fills me up with the yoghurt pieces for the sweetness and its only 175 calories with semi skimmed milk, good start to the day
