The closer to the workout, the less fat you should eat, so it can be digested easily.
i.e.
4 hours before: eat your usual diet, even if it's high in fat
3 hours before: maybe a chicken breast (sorry Steve) on bread, no mayo, no butter
2 hours before: plain bagel or protein bar
1 hour before: liquids only, light on carbs and simple sugars
A bowl of cereal has milk, which has fat. Maybe get some no fat or skim milk?
