No. Because for me milk is just as bad as cereal.
But you could try museli - which is raw oatmeal with cold milk on it. Add some nuts for flavor.
Another idea, not cereal but egg free - sausage and cheese biscuit. A regular size canned biscuit is 14g carbs.
try having lunch type breakfast.
I'm pretty sick of eggs as well but i spice it up every day. this morning i had 2 eggs/cheese on whole grain english muffin.
Sometimes i have 2 eggs/cheese/onions/peppers on a whole wheat wrap (and soft of pick of most of the wrap (full wrap gives me high #'s, but if i pick some of it off they are significantly lower)
Sometimes i have oatmeal w/ half of banana and sometimes i just have a banana.
Good luck
I was told no juice, fruit, dairy, nor cereal.
That said, like PP (and maybe OP?) I have had the LS oatmeal with about 1c milk and done just fine.
Suggestions they gave me: carb + protein. Egg McMuffin type sandwich (I know it includes egg, but to me this would be way different than scrambled eggs, for example,) toast or english muffin with peanut butter, I've done LC bagels with cream cheese, and as others said don't feel like you have to eat breakfast sandwiches. Grilled cheese with ham = yum!!
Cereal and milk is my usual breakfast but my numbers have been higher (150s). I have tried lessen the amount of milk and cereal - and I measure and sometimes it is better. It just seems I don't handle carbs as well in the morning.
I am going to start making egg cheese breakfast burritos. In the past I would cook a few scrambled eggs and put them in the fridge and just prep and mircowave in the morning. I don't have time to cook eggs every morning.
I dont know if this will help. I am type 1, and I take insulin.
I eat cereal EVERY SINGLE MORNING for breakfast. My cereal insulin:carb ratio is 1:1.3, whereas my lunch and dinner ratio is 1:3.5... So, I'm sure the cereal is no good, but my sugars stay under control with the increased insulin.
Yes, I eat cereal.

I had ok numbers with cereal (cheerios) when i added a little bit of protein powder and ground flax to the milk. Unfortunately the serving was small and i was hungry and waiting to take my bs so i could have a snack.
I too like sandwiches or leftover dinner. This morning was grilled cheese with egg white and a 1/3 cup tomato soup.
