Yes you have to try it!! I was oooohing and awwwing as I peeled all dozen eggs! it was AMAZING!

[Leangirl]

Thanks for the welcome guys! Ill be Doing an only egg fast for the next week. My goal is to lose 10 lbs.


about 6-10 eggs a day with black pepper and cayenne pepper
Apple cider vinegar
Green tea
Diet coke
Tons of water
No salt no spices no cheese
Occasional butter
I've done this in the past and lose 21 lbs in 10 days. It is pretty intense but just for a week. It's going to be sorta an experiment. And ofcourse to hold myself accountable

[Erika1962]

Cindy....SUREEEEEE rub it in!!! LOL...But I WILL find that coffee!!!

Leangirl...Good luck with the egg fast! I saw a thread on here somewhere and even searched the net about it a couple of weeks ago, the losses are fantastic on it! I eat mostly eggs myself on the M/E fast days, for some reason they satisfy me more than meat, especially my scrambled ones YUM! Keep us posted on how it works for you!


Well I did my first carbup day yesterday, of course it got way out of control at night and I had to log more than 2000 calories and wayyyyy over 200 carbs, I was so affraid to step on the scale this morning, expected to see at least 4 pounds up but it wasn't as bad!! So for the next 3 days it's carbdown, meat and eggs only, trying this for 1 or 2 cycles to see if the scale starts moving again.

Erika-OK you need to tell me more about this new plan you are on....I need to give my body a kick since christmas...I can't get the scales to move in the right way...and I just started LC in Nov...I shouldn't be struggling this much


Leangirl-Good luck with the egg fast...I couldn't do it...I would get so tired of eggs in the end that I wouldn't be able to go back to my bacon and eggs every morning ...


Joanne - Welcome back!! at least you came back thats what counts!!


Lori- CONGRATS your in the 170's!!!!!
your so lucky that you can some rum...I think my weight gain is the wine I have been having

[LoriAS]

Cindy - I think wine affect me the same way, usually with a gain, but the rum...different story

[Cindy-lou]

Lori -this is where we need a "like" button
Maybe I need to go back to something like that too

[Leangirl]

Wow ill join you guys after my egg fast is done!

Haven't had the chance to eat lunch her coz at work pblly have to wait till later ... Drinking black coffee as we speak! Not gonna lie I'm def hungry but I'm
Gonna do this ...
Are you using butter , hwc etc? I'm not. I was supposed to water fast but this is wayyy better than that and so I m pretty excited! Lets do this! You wanna start a new thread!?

Lori
That's so great to hear! Did you use butter and mayo ?by condiments do you mean spices ? I'm at the last 15 lbs of my
Goal and this fat is just so hard to budge. Despite exercise etc!

Haha Cindy I vote for the like button too!! Too many posts I like in this thread.
How about we just make this facebook

[LoriAS]

sour cream, heavy cream, mayo, butter, cream cheese - I don't add too much cheese to my diet when doing meat and egg, but if I do it is usually cream cheese. Also, I have 1 T of coconut oil in my coffee every morning. If you search this thread for my posts, you can see some of my menus.

Everyone is different though and you just have to find what work for you and go with it. For me, this go around was eggs and mostly pork...pork loin roast, pork chops, pork breakfast sausage links...

Good luck!

OK...You're on! Day 1! I'll probably have some hwc in my morning coffee (didn't today), maybe a little butter if I am frying eggs.
So far I've had: 2 boiled eggs for breakfast and 2 for lunch, and probably 2 fried eggs for supper. If you'd like to start a new thread, that would be fine with me.

[Leangirl]

Haha great!!!' Super excited. Naw I guess we can stay in this thread'! I just had two eggs for lunch again sunny up and a lil butter on top. I'm
Also doing diet soda! We can do this!!! Love your energy Joanne!!

Cheers for the
Eggcited!

[Leangirl]

Lori, I've done meat and eggs already but plateaued absolutely now that I have 15 more pounds to go, so I've decided to try only eggs. We ll see if I get results (: otherwise I don't know what else I can do! Exercise doesn't help anymore either, I see all my muscles buried underneath these 15 lbs of flab on tummy arms and legs !

[Leangirl]

Erika: that's great to hear hopefully it will give us great results too! They do fill me in very nicely. They are appetite suppressant and still full from the lunch even thogh I didn't have any butter with it!
Cindy: ill return back to eggs and bacon after this week ( will join ya guys again fingers crosses)
Drinking more water today! Don't really feel like diet soda for some reason
I am down with a really bad cold but im scared to take an antihistamine because it might mess me up

[Erika1962]

Joanne..good to see you back!!! Let's crack some eggs!!!

Leangirl...I just saw that, you lost 21 lbs in 10 days on eggs??? Ima buy 20 dozen today Keep posting in here so I can see how you are doing!!!

Lori...congratulations on the 170's!!! you are really kicking butt!!!

Cindy...I do a lot of reading, came accross some forums online that are discussing carb cycling to lose weight. I found so many different ones that I really didn't know where to start. The easiest one I found so far is 3/1, 3 days low carb and 1 day high carb, also fat intake has to be different on low and high carb days. Right now I'm just shooting from the hip, I guess we will know more in a few days. Today through wednesday I am doing low carb and higher fat (meat and eggs) then on thursday I will add in the carbs again, oatmeal and sweet potatos, may be some veggies and keep the fat lower, then again 3 days meat and eggs....I think we should know after the second carbup day if it works or not

[Cindy-lou]

Erika - I will be watching your numbers

[Joannew]

Be afraid Erika be very afraid....we're all watching you!

leangirl I'm EGGcited, too!

I'm done eating for the day....had 2 boiled eggs for supper mixed with a little mayo....now I will duct tape my mouth shut and see y'all in the morning!

[Erika1962]

LMAO!!! The pressure ....the PRESSUREEEEEE

Joanne, I tried the duct tape, doesn't work for me, I had to get a staplegun

[LoriAS]

Thanks Erika. I have boiled some eggs tonight. I am going to peel all, store 1/2 and devil 1/2.

I did use the baking soda trick, but I think I tried to peel them too soon. I had better success than usual, but still some meat sticking to the shell. So I am letting them cool and then going to try again. I also wondered if I should put more than 1 tsp, because I boiled 18.

Right now my favorite is fried o/m and devilled.

[Joannew]

Good job from me, too Lori I think I may have peeled my eggs too quickly as well...I need more patience....and I NEED IT NOW!

Thanks for the suggestion on the staplegun Erika...if the tape doesn't hold, I'll be trying that next!

[Erika1962]

Good morning all Did an all egg day yesterday, 3 boiled eggs for lunch and 5 scrambled ones with hwc for dinner, of course I had to have a couple of ounces of cheddar and coconut bark for dessert. Also realised that I should have waited til arrival/ departure of TOM for my experiment, oh well, too late now, just wish the bugger would show up and then LEAVE ASAP!

Last month I did an egg/meat fast during the week of my tom and really enjoyed it. Well tom is right around the corner again and I think I'm going to try it again this month, except I'm going to try an all egg fast I don't know how long I'll do it for-probably until I can't stand eggs anymore The only thing I'm wondering about is I follow JUDDD and yesterday was a low calorie day-I only ate 360 calories. I wonder if I should go right into an egg fast, or do a normal UD today (2,00ish calorie day) and start my egg fast tomorrow

[Leangirl]

Erika: amazing progress there! Keep up the great work
Joanne: oh hahahaha lay our own eggs? Yeah for sure ! Lol good job on the loss.. U don't eat after a certain time? Damn you are strict!
Mom23: come join yay!
I'm down .5 this morning .. Eh could be the cold medication I took last night .i was so nauseous last night that I threw up my last meal ughhhh could be coz im sick .. What a mess! Hoping today will be a Lott better

Having coffee right now then two scrambled
Eggs. Ill lay off the butter today '!
