Cereal

[bigmama 11]

When can I start eat Cereal? I know Special K Protein plus has a good amount of protein in it.

I don't eat grains at all. I eat a combination of leguime, annimal and whey protiens, and also spinnach, kale, etc.

I have not had surgery but when I consulted a nutritionist in the past, she said to make sure cereal and bread had more Fiber than sugar. I know the Fiber One Honey Clusters is tasty and has more fiber than sugar.

They told me not to eat cereal, period. Weight control oatmeal showed up on the list of OK foods, but then he crossed it off. My group pushes low carbs, and says why start if you don't have to. Lots of people do the shake in the morning instead. It's not just sugar, it's all non-fiber carbs. I do net-carbs, where you subtract the dietary fiber out, and stay away from anything with more than 6 g net carbs per serving. So I haven't had cereal in months and months. I put my carbs into wraps with my lunch/dinner versus Breakfast. Personal choice and surgeon suggestions, really. So no one can answer except your doctor.

My list from the NUT says that I can add cold cereal (less than 5gr sugar per serving, like fiber one, rice krispies, cheerios,and cornflakes on Day 28.
