Cereal will give you a pre-workout energy boost and promote a sense of fullness without adding an excessive number of calories.

Nuts.

Nuts may be high in calories but they're also loaded with heart healthy fats which give you a sense of fullness and help to boost your pre-workout energy levels. Studies have shown that despite being high in calories, people who eat nuts on a regular basis experience better weight controls than those who don't. Just be sure to eat no more than a handful to avoid taking in an excessive amount of calories.
