Day 2 of 5 day egg fast diet
Yesterday I had 8 eggs, 6 tablespoons of butter and 113 grams of cheese. Water - some with lemon juice and my bedtime cup of coffee.
I'm not having problems eating eggs yet, I'm still having them scrambled and plain - which I'm planning to stick to today - if need be I'll add some curry powder to them for a change.
The doctor gives me amitriptyline for night pain but I've found that they make me dopey all day. I've bought some melatonin - you can't buy them over the counter in the UK, but it's not illegal to buy them from abroad and use them - and they seem to be better - I may try giving the coffee a miss and seeing if I can sleep without it.

bedtime COFFEE? I'd be up all night. I must stop my caffeine at noon. my sleep isn't the best. I find magnesium combined with valarian root is great. I'm back and forth on the melatonin. umm serious question.. Does the egg diet give you toots?

I started losing weight with an egg diet, I lose around 7 pounds in two weeks, I was so worried about the yoyo thing so I was researching what to do to keep the weight off, and I found THE PERFECT PORTIONS MEAL PLAN AND RECIPE I love those little containers and FatSecret.

I don't live without coffee but I don't sleep if I drink coffee at bed time. The egg diet is good but have to continue counting calories or measuring your food after that, good luck ! ☺

I used to be hungry all theime @jenjabba - I'd eat a huge meal and thirty minutes later I'd feel really hungry. Since cutting the carbs I've found I can go a long time without being hungry. My body nowadays is happy burning my fat - of which there's plenty - which is a solid slow burn, rather than carbs - sugar - which is fast up and down and craving more.

keilin-4 I don't calorie count or measure my food. I do low carb - mainly no flour, no sugar, no root veg and only very occassional fruit.

keilin-4 - I also fast at least 16 hours a day and sometimes up to 66 hours or more.

That is good too, when I am lazy to count calories, intermittent fasting helps me to stay away from overeating, I am not good doing more than 24 hours fast yet.
