If you are eating a cereal that is mostly sugar and such, that could be the problem too. Take a look at the grocery list for a bodybuilder on this site and it'll give you a good idea what you should be putting into your system. -------------- t I count him braver who overcomes his desires than him who conquers his enemies, for the hardest victory is over self. - Aristotle You have the power to change a life right in your own hands. - Paul Brandt

You want as much fiber as possible (takes longer to digest, keeping you fuller), low in sugar, high in good carbs etc. If it has glucose/fructose, sodium, starches, make a good change. Oatmeal for a start is a good change. You may want to look at "Kashi" as it has great ingredients. -------------- If you can dream it, if you can imagine it, then you can be it, you can do it.
