For the last several years, Chicago attorney Karl Anderson, 52, has been eating high-fiber, low-sugar oatmeal and raisin bran for breakfast, often with a banana. Sure, he's tempted by the coffee cake and pastries on his kitchen counter. And he fondly remembers loving Cap'n Crunch and Cocoa Krispies as a kid. "But I know those aren't good for you," he says. Today Anderson feels better than ever about his choice.
