Special K has a Protein cereal (10 grams per serving) and kashi (that's probably spelled wrong) also has a couple. Just watch the carbs and serving size.

I am a dumper but with the Protein, Fiber, and complex carbs, the cereals have not bothered me. I do typically use 1/2 cup of milk in the cereal and drink it (I know I know) so it's a little more protein. I don't do the cereals often but sometimes it's a nice change.

I miss cereal real bad. Especially frosted flakes. I wasn't a huge kid cereal person but frosted flakes were a weakness. I would usually have Cheerios, Special K, or Crispex. I think in a few months I'll try Special K with protein.

I love cereal, I always mix it with my dannon strawberry yogurt.....*sniff*.....I will miss it!

I mix like 1/8 Special K protein or a dozen chopped up almonds in my Greek yogurt if I'm needing crunch. I get bored with it if I try to eat it plain day after day.
