You *may* choose to have a high-fiber cereal, but your carbs shouldn't be higher than 10g ECC for the whole meal. PP stresses that you spread your carbs throughout the day, rather than having them all at one meal .. which is more likely to spike insulin and work against you in the long run.

Plus, you must ensure that your breakfast also includes the minimum per-meal requirement for protein (at least 20g per meal for women).

Here's an overview of the Protein Power book, to give you a basic idea about the program and how it works .. http://www.lowcarb.ca/atkins-diet-a...tein-power.html
