Cheerios for breakfast?  The box says only 110 calories per serving.  But, that is without milk or sugar or fruit.  An official Cheerios "portion"So when I say, "I only had a bowl of Cheerios for breakfast.".  You may think.  She had a serving.  That's only 110 calories.  Very good!  If you remember to add in the skim milk calories, it is still a reasonable 150 calories.  But one cup of Cheerios is a pretty small portion and it is pretty boring with out the fruit.So, here's is what I really eat.  I fill the bowl up.  It is a small bowl after all.  Then I put in some fruit (4 medium sized strawberries in this case).  Finally, a sprinkle or two (or three) of brown sugar.  Then I pour on enough milk to moisten it all (a full cup) and what do I have?  What I really eatHmmmm.  Let's add it up:      2 cups of Cheerios               = 220 cal      1 cup of skim milk              =   80 cal      4 medium strawberries   =   25 cal      2 loosely packed teaspoons of brown sugar (yum)  =  34 calories      for a GRAND TOTAL OF 359 calories, triple the amount of a "serving."  Portion wise?  or portion lies?
