How does everyone eat Cereal?

I measure out a cup of cereal and 1/2 cup of almond milk unsweetened

It looked like a ton of cereal but it never made me full is that because its a "slider food"?

I love cereal and eat it often, however for me it's definitely a slider food. I have to be careful to always measure it because I could probably eat a lot if I wanted to,

You also have to remember cereal typically isn't real filling, anyway. I try to stick to high Fiber and whole grain. I stay away from the sugary varieties.

Most cereal lists one serving as 3/4 cup so that's usually what I measure out.

I always thought cereal did not keep me full because there wasn't enough Protein.< /p>

Any one else know if that's correct? Although, steel cut oatmeal, a little bran, a little cinnamon, truvia and fresh blueberries...mmmmm, maybe my fav Breakfast. Cold cereal... Not so much.

I add Special K Protein to my Greek yogurt in the morning. If I feel I need an extra boost of Protein, I add a scoop of unflavored Protein powder.

Try some of the newer cereals, like Kellogg's Special K High Protein. It is delicious and gives you 10 GM of Protein. You will see many new products that are specifically marked HIGH PROTEIN. I think they were made specifically for Me! ;). You will see they are measured out as "3/4 cup" to get your protein. Use your Fitness Pal to track everything you put in your mouth.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
