btw... i realize that a bowl of cereal is not enough protein. i wouldnt mind adding a scoop of whey, if i can keep the cereal.
ok here goes.
im attempting to put together a diet, and count my calories so i can try to cut correctly. i lost my beer gut recently but also a little strength, and i want to do it right this time!
i have a problem, however. for some reason, my first meal of the day is the hardest to put down. once i get that meal down, im fine. i always crave something sweet, as it is the easiest thing to put down. right now im eating raisin bran or life cereal in the morning with 2% milk. (raisin bran has 19g sugar and life has 6g, plus the milk)
is this gonna really screw up my cutting or do you guys think i could get away with it? i have to eat something in the morning or my appetite is screwed for the rest of the day. i try to stay away from artificial sugars, i hate the taste and cancer bothers me.
i can avoid sugar for the rest of the day, except for occasional milk or juice with a meal, usually milk. i realize that milk has sugar in it, so what kind of drinks could i have with my meals besides milk? id rather drink something besides water. im considering lime juice (about 1/2 lime in a cup of water), but would like to keep the milk if possible.
sorry i dont have more info about my diet, i havent gotten completely organized.
in short: is cereal ok in the morning? if not, what should i eat? how much sugar is OK in a day?
thanks for all your help peoples!

ditch the cereal and go with oatmeal with blueberries

ya, cereal on a cut is probably not the best choice....do like aztec said....get some oatmeal....and some sugar free syrup....its all good......love that stuff
oatmeal and blueberries eh? sounds yummy. any advantage to slow-cooking oats as opposed to minute oats?
ill have to try the sugar free syrup as well... even though i usually am not a fan of sugar-free foods. worth a try.
also, a friend of mine recommended that i take lsd before and after i workout. does this seem like a good idea?
Go with slow cooking, or old fashioned rather than instant. Instant are cut thinner, and have higher GI.

I second this motion. Add some eggs, chicken or whey protein and you have a perfect meal.Originally Posted by aztecwolf
I second this motion. Add some eggs, chicken or whey protein and you have a perfect meal.exactly. Need some protein with those carbs.

sounds good. i tried the blueberries and oatmeal and it really wasnt bad. anybody add anything to oatmeal but fruit or fake sugar? thx just looking for ideas.
ive had some weird experience with whey so i think ill go with eggs... and i bought the instant oatmeal, i didnt know slow cooking was any better. thanks for ur suggestions![]()
I usually add about 2 tsp's of Splenda per 1/2 c of oats.
