An egg a day keeps the fat away??
So I read an article in Womans World magazine today about the amazing benifit of an egg daily for breakfast. Apparently dieters that ate an egg daily lost 65% more weight and shrunk their waist lines 83% more than dieters who didnt eat the eggs but had the same amount of calories.
Eating an egg for breakfast is said to make you crave 400 calories less throughout the day, give you greater energy, be the highest quality protein you can get, prevent muscle loss during wight loss…not to mention stronger nails and hair, healthier eyes, better memory and protection from breast cancer. And apparently eggs have little effect on cholesterol like everyone used to think and reccomend 7-10 eggs a week.
So I thought hmmm, Why not try this. I dont usualy eat breakfast, I have a slim fast but why not an egg only takes a minute or two. So I started this today. I had a pouched egg on toast with I cant beleive its not Butter light and a 6oz glass of OJ. It was really yummy by the way, I dont think I have had pouched eggs since before my dad died. Anyway the entire breakfast was 205 calories and very filling. Though I dont know if it is a cowinkedink, the power of suggestion or actually so, but my energy is through the roof. I’ve been to the gym, cleaned up the yard, walked in the woods and am still thinking about a walk with hubby and the dogs! So I am gonna egg it this week and see what happens. Wish me luck! Bowling sounds like fun too….hmmm

Interesting!!! Sounds worth trying for sure! I love eggs so it won’t even be a challenge for me! Thanks for sharing that with us. Lets compare notes in a couple weeks!! Good luck!
I keep reading good things about eggs too. I have a boiled egg almost every day, even on days when I’m not hungry or I’ve already eaten too much. Apples are supposed to be good too =)
Do you think Egg Beateres will have the same effect?
My doctor told me to eat THREE eggs for breakfast every day. I have low cholesterol so that wasn’t a concern. And I’m not supposed to eat anything with it, so no toast or anything just the eggs.
I don’t do it every day like she suggested, I just don’t like eggs enough to do that. But when I have done it… man am I full for a while!
That is so awesome. I love eggs too…. done anyway and egg whites too. And you are right the energy from even just one egg is amazing. Sometimes I take one egg and make it go further by adding extra egg whites from a carton. Thanks for the info. Have a great week egging it up
I hope it works for you. I saw that article as well and thought my husband should try it. I hate eggs, unless they’re in baked goods. So, not many eggs here lately!;)
Hmmm, definately worth a try. Gotta remember to put more eggs on the grocery list. Thanks for the tip.
I sometimes force myself to eat eggs. Blah, I just don’t like them. I do find that when I eat them for breakfast I tend not to be so hungry until lunch time. I hope it helps you! Good luck!!!
This is exciting! I love eggs! I’m gonna have to give this a shot!
Thanks for the wonderful tip! I am going to try it too!
i do slimfast now, but an egg sounds good! does it matter if u do it w breakfast, or can you do it with dinner? but mine will be scrambled well with cooking spray instead of butter or oil and then COVERED IN PAPRIKA AND BLACK PEPPER YUUUMM
I dont know about the egg beaters….maybe….I guess its better to eat them in the morning as then will crave less during the day…hope this really helps!
I also eat scrambled eggs in the am but I add a little salsa. Very low cal but very tasty!!
