6. Cereal
This traditional breakfast staple is unfortunately loaded with carbs. We all know about the high carb count in sugary cereals, but you’d also be surprised at just how many carbs lie in the “healthy” cereals as well. For example, one cup of regular or instant oatmeal has a whopping 32 grams of carbs, and a single half cup of granola packs in over 37 grams of carbs! That’s before you even take into account the carbohydrate content in the milk that goes with it.

Overall, for those looking to cut back on carbs, cereals should be avoided as much as possible. Instead, replace cereals with healthier low carb alternatives such as yogurts, lean meats, eggs and non-starchy vegetables.
