Meat and egg fast anyone?

[Snoangel]

WOW Cindy 14lbs in 4 weeks is absolutely AMAZING! Great job lady

[Cindy-lou]

Thanks Oceana but I need to drown myself in water today...
made some homemade LC Kahlua last night and it was wonderful

So this morning I had 3 eggs with bacon instead of 2 eggs

[mom23kids]

I started reading this thread when it was first started and wow-it's exploded to 17 pages! I'm very interested in trying this for a few days-I did the potato hack fast a few days ago and had great results, but I'm not a big fan of potatoes However, I think I could live off of eggs I need to go through this thread and see what everyone's been eating/how to do this fast. Might be a good thing to do, before all the holiday food craziness starts for me on Friday

[mom23kids]

Ok, read through the entire thread I'm going to join in starting tomorrow and will try to go through until Friday. I will be be eating mostly eggs, but will have some sort of meat everyday too Yesterday I weighed in at my lowest yet, 152.5, but then had a very generous eating weekend yesterday/today so I know my weight will will be up tomorrow. I've decided to NOT weigh myself until Saturday/after I'm done with the fast. It's also tom, so that may play a factor in this week-we shall see!

Off to plan my menu for tomorrow

[Snoangel]

YUM on the Kahlua! Wish I could have some
I also need to drink lots of water! I've been good by marking little tallies on my water bottle.
I ate pretty crappy for the last week or so! I'm 138.9 right now, but I feel bloted and I know for my body I could lose at least another 10lbs. well more than that, but I do like a lil meat on my bones!! I enjoy having curves, makes me feel more confident!

Welcome Mom
Glad you're joining in! I love eggs, and when I cut down to mainly meat, I didn't lose as good as having at least 4 eggs a day. Although I think it's important to skip a few egg days here and there because many develope alergies to eggs.

So my stepmom has baked over 20 different types of bars, all in 13x9 size, a few kinds of truffles, 30 different cookies, HUGE new york style cheesecakes. and much more! WELL, I've decided to test my will power this year and just say NO! goodies will always be around and if I maintain my weight till next Christmas, then yes, I probably will indulge in a lil taste of everything But for now I'm holding my ground and feeling impowered!

MERRY CHRISTMAS...Last year was a nighmare for the last few months of the year for me... This year is amazingly good! I'm so happy, content, and enjoying every bit of the holidays I really hope you all are also!!!

[mom23kids]

Well yesterday I went a bit overboard on the bacon

Yesterday's menu-

9 pieces of bacon eek!
1 hamburger patty with mayo, ketchup, mustard
2 deviled eggs with mayo
1.5 hb eggs
2 Hebrew National beef hot dogs with ketchup and mustard


Today's plan will have at least 4 eggs, a hamburger patty and then tilapia. No bacon lol.

[LoriAS]

Starting the M&E fast again today to try to get close to my goal of 183 for this month.

12/18: 186.6 (SW for M&E)

Today's Menu:

B: coffee w/HWC, CO, splenda; 4 pork sausge links
L: wings w/ ranch
D: baked chicken, 2 devilled eggs

water, water, water

[LoriAS]

In an effort to pad my wallet and my calories, I decided to eat in at work because I had some flame grilled precooked burgers in the freezer and some sour cream in the fridge. Great lunch right! Wrong! I was struggling to get through it before I was even finished with the first patty! I have been struggling to get enough calories in during the day, which has been fine if I haven't been hungry and have enough energy. But today my energy was horrible for the first time since starting back in Sept. I looked back over the last few days meals and I just haven't eaten that many calories, but I wasn't hungry.

To make a long story short, I ate all my lunch. But now I may not be able to eat dinner or anything before bed tonight, because I am sooo full. I wish there was a magic formula!

My menu may change to:

B: coffee w/HWC, CO, splenda; 4 pork sausge links
L: two grilled hamburger patties w/sour cream
D: cream soda (1/4-1/3 cup HWC, ice, diet soda of choice) or nothing

water, water, water

[mom23kids]

Tweaked my menu plan for today too

1 hamburger patty with a slice of American cheese, ketchup/mustard/mayo
2 pieces of salmon with tarter sauce
serving of pepperoni jerky

and then supper will be three eggs scrambled with bacon bits mixed in

Calorie wise I'm pretty low for the day, but I'm discovering that's it's pretty hard to eat a lot of calories in just meat and eggs

Lori, How much CO are you eating? You could use more to get your calories and fat up. Or cut it if It's making you not want to eat. It made me not want to eat at all when I was getting 2-3 TBS a day in.
I hope you get your appetite back.
I wish there was a magic formula too
You're doing fantastic on your losses BTW great job

[Cindy-lou]

Hi Everyone...

Been kinda feeling Blah for a few days and well today it hit....BAM a cold...haven't had a cold in about 12 years
so I stayed in bed all day hopefully I will be better before my Christmas get together on Sunday

I am going to do the M&E for the next few days to see if I can get the ball moving again

Good to see you back Lori and your doing so great...congrats

Welcome Mom

How are you feeling Oceana?

Where is Erika been I wonder?

[mom23kids]

Well I decided to weigh myself yesterday and today, even though I didn't weigh myself when I started the meat/egg fast on Monday. Looking at a daily weight with JUDDD isn't always very accurate because of all the boings/whooshes, but here's what's been happening-

Saturday, the 15th-weighed in again at my lowest weight of 152.5 (saw this weight once the week before but then had some bounces)

Saturday/Sunday were both Up calorie days and I ate freely on both of these days (over 2,000 calories each day with carbs etc)

Monday-no weigh in/started meat and egg fast

Tuesday-weighed in at 154lbs (within a normal bounce range for me after having a big food weekend)

Wednesday (this morning)-I weighed in at a new low for me, at 151.5 So I got rid of the big weekend bounce and then lost an additional pound. Very happy with this!

I'm going to keep doing the meat and egg fast until Friday, and then I'll go back to my JUDDD rotations. If the next three days go good I may incorporate a meat/egg fast into my monthly JUDDD rotations

Today's menu-

hamburger patty with slice of American cheese, mayo/ketchup/mustard
hb egg
1 piece of salmon with tarter sauce
3 scrambled eggs with bacon bits

[Trigger828]

I got some wicked cravings the last 2 days. Tough ones but made it thru. by the skin of my teeth!!

I want 3 days of meat and eggs.

I am starting today!!

Just need someone there with me. Hold my hand I got to get better control back.

only gained less than a lb about but it was enough for me to know that I don't ever want to backslide.


Weight loss has really slowed to the .2 range. whoopee, NOT.
I gotta jump start some lbs down that scale.

[LoriAS]

Well, I didn't make the M&E fast yesterday, but had a 1/2 cup of veggie salad. Today I have a carry in and will eat that with the VERY few low carb choices available.

Down .4 today, but happy that I am maintaining my 6 pound loss for this month!

Will probably hold off on the fast again until after Christmas now.

I've seen others say 'rashers of bacon' what does that mean? Is it just another word for piece?

meals messed up I think is what is getting me into craving trouble. when I have my meal schedule down pat and eating good decadent foods, I am fine. when I get screwed up, off times, and eat grab and go with less good fats, etc. I am starting to crave.

be careful. I just found this out about me.

If you Google search "rashers bacon" and click images you will see what it looks like...it looks like a super super skinny pork chop but it's bacon

Hi girls Erika needs to get her binging butt back in gear, I have been really,REALLY bad and avoided the scale like the plague, especially after a chinese pig out.
Finally weighed in this morning at 7!!!!!!!!!! pounds more, so I guess it's time to do some serious disaster control here, got me a bucket of CO and stocked up on eggs....now just let me make it through the evening without giving in to the darn cravings, it will take me a few days to detox from my little piggy fest...

Started today with an all egg and mayo day, coffee with CO

12/19--175 ..."sigh"


Cindy...Hope you are feeling better!!
Lori...You are doing sooooo good!!!
Becky...You can do it!!!

Hello to everyone new on here!

Well now that you got that out of your system time to climb back on the wagon

Detox will be tough but YOU can do it!!


I'm Starting to feel better
Wrapped some christmas gifts to forget about my stuffed up nose

[Erika1962]

Thank you Cindy, I am glad you are feeling better! I have day one of my carb detox behind me without caving in and was rewarded with a nice little water drop, hoping I'll be as good today as I was yesterday!

Todays menu:

B-Coffee, CO
L-Eggs with mayo
D-Chicken WITH skin, roasted in lots of butter
S-Raw cocoa with CO...NO CHEESE!!!

12/19--175..."sigh"
12/20--170.4...amazing what carbs and sodium can do to a body!

[Joannew]

Good Morning!
Hope y'all don't mind if I re-join after being a very bad girl!

Starting out at 148.4 (sigh) Eggs, mayo and coffee only today!

[mom23kids]

I almost fell off my scale this morning-weighed in at a new low and a new decade AND my end of 2013 goal, at 149.5 I'm kind of in shock right now, to see the 140s on my scale So happy right now!

I'm sticking to the same menu as yesterday, except I may go to Wendy's to get my hamburger patty and get their junior bacon cheeseburger, plain, and then take off the bun.

[Trigger828]

end goal for 2013. You are a year ahead in weight loss? WOW darn good!!!!


congrats!!

[Trigger828]

OK doing well.

I had a bit of whipped cream in a bowl last night for a taste and then thought---DUH you moron you started meat and eggs!

3 scrambled, very small bit of cheese, 4 bacon....all messed together and delish

chicken wings with a very small amt. of buffalo sauce for spicy taste (cooking alot to have a few in fridge for backup)
