Confessions of a cereal junky..

[Soulthief]

I've got it bad. I'm getting ready to start cutting and I have to get this under control! I eat it for breakfast, during the day and I even get up in the middle of the night hungry and eat cereal...HELP! I use fat free milk but go through almost a gallon a day once I've had two protein shakes.

Just pour liquid winny in it. Problem solved...

 

[Soulthief]

You're a winny...haha

Use water for your shakes. Some cereal actually isn't that bad - I saw some fiber 1 that had like 14g of fiber per serving with a total of 30 or so carbs. I don't eat it on a regular basis, though, specially middle of the night. Wake up and chug a protein shake if you need something. Sounds like will power is the problem

You are completely right about the will power! I'm switching to water in the shakes and try cutting my milk in half with water. I read Dylan on here suggest to someone Special k with protien so I grabbed some today. I read the box and MUCH better than what I've been chowing down on! I don't sleep walk I sleep eat!!

Keep a big bottle of water in fridge. Thirst a lot of times is confused with hunger especially in the middle of night. I started doing this a while back and it helps.

Just keep a pre-made protein shake in the fridge made with Coconut or Almond milk, something that is tasty, creamy, and will satisfy your craving. I have the same issue at times...my favorite is Honey Bunches of Oats w/ freeze dried raspberries...really bad at 2 am, but it is almost like sleep eating, sometimes I don't remember.

Good idea. That should fill me up.

Another killer snack for evening hours...get yourself some Chobani Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt, a cup or so (8 oz), and mix a scoop of protein powder in it, I use either Cinnamon Bun or Rocky Road from NTBM, and you have yourself a healthy low sugar protein pudding! The Rocky Road is my wifes favorite, and I actually can curb her Jello Pudding craving with this now, the only issue is I can't keep it in the fridge...it is gone if she knows its there lol. Just get creative in a healthy way!

Awesome...love to hear that bro, I love passing on healthy eating habits to all my family, friends, and iron brothers...it is so good, my bro Dylan sent me some scoops of Ice Cream Sandwich protein today and just used that in my yogurt a few minutes ago...it was really good also!

Thanks D!
