I guess I will put my two cents in here, but you may already know I am a "hard liner" like Malcom.

My concern is the dificulty in getting enough protein out of cereals which are predominately grains. Why cereal for breakfast, anyway?? Only because the cereal makers have brain washed us into think that is a GOOD thing for us to eat for breakfast - WRONG! Back when the country was mostly farmers, breakfast was bacon, eggs, ham, etc. that would allow a man to work hard until lunch, and farming with a team of horses or mules was HARD work. If you can break out of the habit of what is thought as a "traditional" breakfast, you can then look at any food as OK for breakfast, which they are. Then you just need to match your protein requirement for each meal plus enough GOOD fat for energy (here is where the use of calories is good) and then the carbs that either are "tagging" along in the vegies you are eating, or you are allowing your self to have to "sweeten up" the rest of your food.

Hope that helps to expand your breakfast options.
Larry
