Most cereals, hot or cold will be high in carbohydrates and made of wheat/contain starch. Very early on, I ate cream of wheat, because I wasn't counting carbs and I needed a few.

At a few months out up to a year out, unless it's something that's on your surgeon's list of foods you should eat, I would (personally) avoid it.

If your surgeon says it's no problem, I would ask him/your NUT for suggestions. All of them are going to be carb heavy. I at least try to look for some Protein and dietary Fiber. Study those labels and COUNT THE CARBS.

Go on netrition.com and look at all the low carb cereals if you have to have cereal.

I didn't eat cereal or any grain of any kind until I hit my weight loss goal and had been successfully maintaining for months. Cereal is not your friend in weight loss IMO.

I agree. Too many carbohydrates in cereal. And not to mention breaking the "no eating and drinking at the same time" rule with cereal and milk. At 2+ years out, I can count on one hand how many times I've had cereal. And it was only after I'd lost all my weight and was in maintenence.

I eat All Bran Buds mixed in with my yogurt all the time for the Fiber. I also eat old fashion shredded wheat. You know the giant pillow looking thing? I just let it soak up all the milk it can hold. Good carbs are not something to be afraid of, they are necessary!
