The Dogmother Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Saw this in The Mail today... no need to tell us how good eggs are for you: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/health/dietfitness.html?in_article_id=452282&in_page_id=1798 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Thanks Clare - I need to lose weight and use eggs - an ideal combination Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Had 2 boiled eggs for breakfast yesterday with toast on the strength of that article. I didn't feel hungry all morning so it must be true....but 14 eggs a week would do unspeakable things to the bowels I should think! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted May 4, 2007 Author Share Posted May 4, 2007 I think that eggs are ok so long as you combine them with lots of fruit to counteract their 'binding qualities'. Before we went away, I decided to cut out carbs (cos I eat too much cake), so loosely followed the South Beach/GI plan that one of our directors has been on. Basically 2 weeks of no carbs, but loads of other stuff and fruit; BRILLIANT! cooked brekkie every morning! It was hard at first, but I've re-educated my eating habits and feel much better for it - bread and stuff leaves me feeling so bloated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 The article only mentions eggs - no mention of toast or soldiers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
