Testing my love of cereal

Jump to Comments

Since I’ve already admitted my undying devotion to cereal and milk, it only makes sense to test out the SPECIAL K DIET. We’ll see how long I can maintain eating cereal twice a day for seven days. Here are the official rules:

Step 1: Start day with a serving of any Special K cereal and 2/3 cup of skim milk, or 2 Special K waffles and 2 tbsp. light syrup. Enjoy either option with fruit.

Step 2: Replace next meal with Special K protein bar or another serving of Special K cereal with 2/3 cup of skim milk and fruit.

Step 3: Dinner as usual.

The snacks they suggest are Special K snack bars and Special K Protein water, but we’ll see if I need the snacks. I’m not a very big person, I think the regular plan will be okay for me. The plan also instructs the Special K dieter to consume beverages, fruits, and vegetables normally. 

This is what I bought at the grocery store:

 

  • One box of Special K Fruit and Yogurt
  • One carton of fat-free milk
  • Four meal replacement bars (chocolate peanut butter, double chocolate, and strawberry)
  • 4 frozen entrees. 3 Amy’s vegetarian meals and one Lean Cuisine angel-hair pasta.
I am a vegetarian so it’s good that the dinners are my choice. I’ll check back with you guys tomorrow to let you know how day 1 of Special K went!
Oh, also I will be putting in major gym time. See you tomorrow!
Maybe I will look this toned after 7 days.

  • You know, of all the cereals Special K would be the one that has my special love, but I’m not sure my love is immortal enough to last 14 meals of it a week. Still, I’ll give it a shot.

    Great project, by the way! I wish you luck with it.
