true, even though it is non fat, if I don't use the energy, it will turn into fat...

anyone else like this? Though I have to admit, cereal is 0 or 1g of fat per serving...

well basically you are just ingesting lots of calories and lots of carbs, sometimes people don't realize how easy it is to go through a serving of cereal. a normal serving is rarely what people give themselves in the morning. what kind of cereal is it? look at what kinds of ingriedients are in it? regardless, that is the same reason I dont buy tortilla chips, they don't fill you up, and it is just a lot of unnecessary carbs/calories.
While I breathe, I hope.

Mindlessly snacking infront of TV is dangerous. You will way overeat without realising. Stop it.
The first rule of cheat club is you do not talk about cheat club. The second rule of cheat club is you DO NOT talk about cheat club. Third rule of cheat cub, someone yells stop!, goes limp, taps out, the cheat is over. Fourth rule, one cheat at a time, fellas. Fifth rule, cheats will go on as long as they have to. And the sixth and final rule, if this is your first night at cheat club, you have to cheat.

Oats oats oats, granola granola granola. If you going to eat stuff like that, eat natural granola or something (most stores carry it in bulk food section, really cheap). Also, carry around almonds, they fill you up FAST and theyre a BBers friend... at least my friend...

Just make sure to watch how much you eat. Even though it doesn't have much fat, it still has calories, and excess calories pile up.
I found a cereal that lists it being fairly high in protein on the side of the box, and I sometimes eat that as a midday snack. It's pretty good (a bit crunchy), and it's convenient. I just hope it has as much protein as it claims to have.Post hoc, ergo propter hoc.

I rather be getting my calories from fat than from carbs. Up to a limit of course. Carbs create insulin which when too high can cause fat storage, fat is the exact same energy, it just doesn't create insulin. People get so scared of fat now days.
Anyways, it really depends on the cereal. Obviously Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Lucky Charms, Fruit Loops and Frosted Flakes aren't what you're looking for. Go for All-Bran, get the flakes, the shredded wheat kind of All-Bran tastes terrible.
But yeah, All-Bran flakes with some Splenda on top and you could swear you are eating Frosted Flakes and it's one of the healthiest cereals out there. And it's around 100 cals a cup which is a fraction of most of the cereals out there.History: Mar, 2001: 135lbs @ ~14% | Nov, 2004: 245lbs @ ~40% | Dec, 2006: 168lbs @ 5.5%ish | Nov, 2008: 177lbs @ 5.5%ish | Dec, 2016: 179lbs

I'm in the same boat as you. I really like cereal, any kind. I'll eat 2 bowls of in in one sitting. It's probably one of my favorite things to eat. You have to watch it though because one serving of a cereal is like 1 cup and sometimes 3/4 cup. If you have a whole bowl of it, that probably 2 cups or so. So you have to double whatever it says on the side for nutrition facts or even triple depending on how big your bowl is. The **** is addicting. I'll eat a bowl and then want to go right back for another. It's become probably my favorite thing to eat after a night a drinking. When everyone wants to go out to eat after partying, I'll have cereal or just wait unitl I get home and have a bowl. I know I'm probably going to break down and have something, and there's much worse things to eat. I like it b/c it's airy and doesn't sit heavy in my stomach.
