Cereal
I can't say i'd ever recommend eating cereal for a meal - especially breakfast. Even cereal advertised with "protein" is so minimal that it's not worth it and the carb/sugar counts are off the chart. And it's not going to keep you full.
I recommend dense protein as a base for your breakfast - eggs, egg whites, meats, etc.
If you really want cereal though - i cant remember the name of the brand/company, but I had received some samples of some cherrio things at an OH conference and it had maybe 12g of protein in it or something. Maybe someone knows what it is, but I still wouldnt recommend it.

Take a look at a box of Total.
The serving size is 3/4 cup or about 30g. It has 100 calories. It has 3g of protein and 23g of carbs.
Thats DRY. Unless you are going to eat it with water, The numbers only go up. Unfortunately the calories go up more than anything else.
HOnestly skip cereal, oatmeal, any of the grainy stuff while you are losing. Look for lean dense protein sources.

I have cereal every once in a while - recommended by my nutritionist - Barbara's puffin cinnamon. I told her I had eaten a serving of fiber one (the one that looks like hampster food) - she said "please do not tell me you ate one serving in one meal - that is too much fiber at once. I use 1/2 the serving of that one now and put it in my greek yogurt - mostly because I was onlly getting in about 3-7 g of fiber a day - way too low. But those are the only two I ever use.
