Louise - did you try putting a sliced banana on your cereal and maybe having a slice of toast with jelly or fruit butter on it? Rice Krispies and virtually any other dry cereal made fromm rice. Just read the ingredients on the boxes. Of course, the store clerks might wonder why you've been standing in the cereal aisle so long!

Well, cream of rice is a hot cereal, but you can make it in just a minute in the microwave. Make it with soy milk and it's extra creamy.

I like Sharon's idea of adding sliced banana to the cereal. That will be more filling. And after the cereal, you might have a piece of toast with just a smidgen of peanut butter - the fat will fill you up.

You could also try corn chex, Crispix, Honeycomb, or corn flakes and see if they're more filling. And maybe you're just not eating enough of the cereal?

Hi - Are you taking a soluble fiber supplement first thing in the morning (as soon as you get up, before you eat anything?) This can help - so can taking the supplement last thing at night about an hour before you go to bed.

Hope you're feeling better soon.

HI Sharon; I sometimes have a banana with soy milk as part of my breakfast anyway, I am unsure about rice krispies, it might be too light for me, even though I take my supplements. Ido enjoy half a bagel after a bowl of rice poerridge. The bagel tops the cereal off nicely. In the warmer whether I will want something cooler.

Try the sugar sweetened kind. The artificial sweeteners can cause GI side effects.

See if your health food store has something called Fiberrific - it's a supplement that isn't psyllium.
