Sugar

[OakLeaf]

For breakfast, the only cereal that I found other than oatmeal was Special K in the blue box, the one with lots of protein.

Any puffed cereal has no sugar added (and only one ingredient)...

Staples in my house, Shredded Wheat and Shredded Wheat n Bran both have negligible amounts of sugar. As does plain old Cheerios.

What you do with it after you put it in the bowl is your own business.

I am going to second the calorie DOES NOT equal a calorie

when it comes to weight management there is much to consider

- water intake (are you drinking water or juices or coffee or tea or pop any excess of any one can either add calories, dehydrate you etc)

- wheat,milk, soy, corn etc intolerances - water gain, weight gain are SYMPTOMS of intolerances along with headaches etc.

- meds - are you on any? also can affect weight

- added sugar, yeast can cause weight issues as well.

- the whole picture - are you getting all your vitamins/nutrients from FOOD over about 48 hours? If you are low in any one thing, or if your body is struggling to absorb, then your body will "pad you up" to ensure your organs stay safe

- sleep - getting enough?
stress? do you have too much - if you are stressed out or not sleeping well, this can all affect weight, because your body is struggling.
