Reply from Flower Fawn, Age 15 - 05/28/08 - IP#: 71.175.124.xxx Hey Claire! Personally I love the Diet for Teenagers Only (a super-great book) becuase I think structured diets would drive me crazy. Or read French Women Don't Get Fat, another "diet" that's really a very enjoyable lifestyle change. :) Sorry I can't help you with cereal choices, but if you have a Trader Joe's or Whole Foods near you then they have really yummy and healthy cereal there.
Reply from Jessica, Age 22 - 05/28/08 - IP#: 12.149.100.xxx I think the Special K diet is more about reducing the number of calories you eat over a short period of time so I'd assume any lowfat cereal like Cheerios would do. The only issue is it's not always that great to cut down your calories for a long period of time because it can reduce your metabolism which is never good! Good luck!
