If I don't eat a good helping of protein and fat at breakfast, I will be ravenous within two hours. Total blood sugar crash. And that's if I eat unsweetened whole grain oatmeal or a low-sugar cold cereal with unsweetened hemp milk.
That said, I do still eat cereal, I just throw a large handful of nuts into cold cereal or 2-3 tablespoons of PB in oatmeal.
But I'm pretty sure I could dispense with the cereal altogether and be even healthier.
ETA: If I'm going for a run or a ride in the morning, then I definitely want carbs for breakfast. But never exclusively carbs.
