Welcome to the forum Bettis.
Rather than completely excluding cereal or other carbohydrate heavy foods at breakfast, you could reduce portion size instead eg cut down from 3 to 2 or 1 shredded wheat. You still need to feel full, so replace missing wheats with eg natural yogurt or berries, both of which are lower in carbohydrate than shredded wheat. Milk has some sugars not massive levels, but reducing a bit will also help.
Others have already covered the usual pattern of higher insulin resistance in the morning. Be kind to yourself - it takes a long time to lead.how to manage your diabetes. Most of us still get errant levels occasionally after decades with T1D.
