jc multi-grain hoops cereal

i am all about some cereal, yo. before i hit jenny craig, i used to plow through a box of honey bunches of oats in one day. and i thought i was being healthier than before, b/c my cereal choices used to be cocoa krispies, honey smacks, corn pops, apple jacks! with soy milk! later i switched to life, corn flakes, rice crispies, and honey bunches. but still, massive proportions. i would sit in front of the tv eating cereal, the milk and box right next to me for quick easy refill. i thought i'd have a hard time giving up cereal, but the jc cereals are all great. it really helps too to be able to eat whatever i want on that days menu at whatever time i want. i eat all my menu for the day, and have the cereal last when i get home at night. the first day was kind of a trip b/c it's proper portions and so small, but im over it now. i use a smaller cereal bowl. getting home at night, chillin with my cats, watching tv, with my bowl of jc cereal, s'been good. even better than before, b/c i know i'm eating sensibly but can still enjoy my comfort food. that stuff about not eating late at night or eating after 7pm b/c you'll gain weight is a myth, by the way. it does help some people to take control of their eating, but so long as you dont go over you day's caloric limit, you'll be fine. for reals, i saw it on the news this morning. most who plan their day's calories to include a snack at night do better w/weight loss, b/c they dont feel constricted about dinner being their last food of the day. this jc cereal is 170 calories, 10 out of 10.
