Day 24 egg diet update and the last day on eggs!


I had to unexpectedly go out of town for work today but yesterday was 10 eggs and down another .5 of a pound. I had eggs all day today. I bought pre-hard boiled from trader joes. However I do not have my scale here so I am not going to be sure about my weight again until I get home sunday August 4th. Continue you on eggs? Or eat primal and low sugar and hope for the best???

Egg Diet Day 23 Update

There isn't much to update. Down another pound! Yay! Feeling really good mentally and physically. I ate 15 hard boiled eggs yesterday. I walked 5 miles and did some squats, lunges and shoulder weights. Including today only two days left of eggs and then the real adventure begins....seeing if I can continue on a healthy path and keep this weight off. Thanks for reading! <3

Egg Diet Update Day 22


I was extra hungry so I ended up eating 15 eggs yesterday but I woke up this morning a pound down! I did 3 sets of 50 kettle bells swings and a 3 mile walk with the hubby. Also, lots of house work. 3 more egg diets left. I am pretty excited that it looks like I will make it to 169 which is what I hoped for. I have made a menu for August 1st. Let me know what you think. I am so curious to see if I bounce up. I feel so much leaner....I hope its real. 

Breakfast:Grassfed Steak with onions and an apple
Lunch:Grilled Chicken with raw salad veggies and homemade avocado lime dressing
Snack:Almonds and Berries 
Dinner:Mahi Mahi with coconut oil sautéed broccoli

Egg Diet Update Day 21


Today was supposed to be the end of the experiment. I extended it until the end of the month because I messed up and ate tons of sugar on day 13. Including today only 4 more days of eggs. Yesterday I ate 12 eggs, all hard boiled, dipped in hot sauce. I had a really busy day so it was easy to only eat when I was hungry. No exercise but lots of errands and walking. I don't think I drank enough water because I was out and about all day. I tried to drink extra when I got home but ended up at about half of what I usually drink. Not sure if that will affect me at all. Down another pound!! Strangely the things I look forward to eating the most on August 1st when this is over is my hubby's grilled grass fed steak, some veggies and an apple. Those foods sound the most appealing and luckily they are healthy and shouldn't cause a rebound. (I hope!) My biggest battle will just be staying away from any processed junk or sugar that isn't fruit. It is pretty easy for me to eat well at home. It social engagements and traveling that gets me. However I am very dedicated to figuring out what works for me so I can stay healthy and continue to keep my weight headed in the right direction. Non scale victory: I can fit into all my size 8 dresses and all my size 10 pants again! YAY!!!!!

Egg Diet Update


A new low weigh in...YAY! I am back to feeling great again. I also feel better about myself because I am back on track and fulfilling my commitment. Only 5 more days so I see the light at the end of the tunnel. I was however invited to another party this Sunday but I decided I was going to skip it. I don't want to be put in that situation again since I am so close to the end of this experiment. I ate 12 eggs scrambled yesterday. I also did a spin class. It amazes me that I do not experience this low carb energy lows people always tell me about. I actually was the most lethargic I've been the day after the sugar binge. More tomorrow. Thanks for sticking with me.

Egg Diet Update


Had a nice 20 mile bike ride with the hubby. Did some kettle bell work. 10 eggs, all hard boiled with mustard. I don't have a very big appetite right now which is great. I am really starting to plan my eating for August 1st which is when this experiment will be over. I know I am going to be doing a primal style lifestyle. What I don't know if how many calories I should shoot for and how much fruit I should allow myself. It may be the start of a new experiment! <3
