How many grams of saturated fat can you consume in a day and not exceed 10 percent of calories from saturated fat?

Well, enough so that the number of calories from saturated fat is less than or equal to 10 percent of your total calories consumed. How many calories are you consuming in day? Take 10 percent of that. That's the high end of the number of calories from saturated fat that you can consume in a day. Divide by the number of calories in a gram of fat (9), and you'll have the number of grams of saturated fat you can consume without exceeding 10 percent. Assuming you are on an 1800 calorie diet, you could consume up to 180 calories from saturated fat. Dividing this by 9, you would get 20 grams of saturated fat. However, it is probably more healthful to consume no more than 7% of calories as saturated fat, which is what is allowed on the American Heart Association's Step II diet. This would be 126 calories, or 14 grams of saturated fat a day.

Does the cereal diet really work?

Cereal diets do not necessarily work. It depends upon the number of calories you consume in a day and the number of calories you burn. If you try the cereal diet and only consume 1500 calories, but burn 1,800 throughout the day, everyday, over time you will lose weight. However, if you consume more calories than you burn in a day, you will gain weight. There aren't any miracle foods or diets that will keep you slim with moderate serving sizes and exercise.

When eating 6 small meals to lose weight I actually gain it what am I doing wrong?

You lose weight when you consume fewer calories than you burn, you gain weight when you eat more calories than you burn. Eating a number of small meals throughout the day is a good behavioral method to ensure you don't overeat, but in your case it seems that you're still consuming more calories per day than before. You should probably eat less per meal, or chose to eat slightly fewer (4 or 5) a day in order to consume fewer calories per day.
