Dalia, you are too funny!

Ladies yes I have a new obsession with these egg. Yesterday I ate 8 hb whites at once! I know why now too........A few nights ago I made steve an ew omlet. I like my scrambled whites 'crispy', almost burnt, so thats how I made his. (he always says Im a bad cook, that I burn everything. ) ANywase, I recall him taking a bite, saying it tastes 'gross' then spitting the eggs on his plate, and throwing everything out. Seeing that has turned me off ever since.

I read your posts and figure you to be a well spoken young lady. I would assume that would come from being a well educated lady. Now ... how is it possible to screw up hard boiled eggs? Even I can make hard boiled eggs.
1. boil water
2. put eggs in boiling water
3. let boil for 12 minutes
4. remove eggs from boiling water
5. eat.



just kick'in it in the ole Charger

For the first part of your comment - thank you. That's nice of you to note.

For the second part, this is how I screw up hard boiled eggs: either they come out GREEN, or they are not hardboiled all the way through and when I go to remove the shell, I get a minor explosion all over my hands.

Granted, maybe ONE of four eggs I boil will come out perfectly. But for the most part, I throw out more eggs than I can eat if I boil them. So i just don't. I've opted for egg beaters, scrambled or omelette.

Unbelievable, I know.

This is how I make em!
-Put eggs in water
-Turn burner on high. Once it comes to a rapid boil, leave for 3 mins
-Turn burner off-leave the pot on the burner for 10 mins
-Run cold water over eggs in pot, shake em in the pot so they get some cracks
-Leave a couple more mins
-Peel and eat!

i will try this. Thanks. I seriously think there is a problem with my burners. Too hot too fast, or hotter than it says, or something.

Ah. haha! I thought it was some sort of vegetable I'm not familiar with, considering I never ate veggies before this summer. I'm thinking, "Cukes! I have to try that! But... what is it?" hahaah!

<---- silly girl.

Congrats on the scale thing! WOoo!

Thanks Girlies!

My 3 new pairs of work pants i bought about 1.5 months ago are wayyyy to loose and baggy on me now! The actually look too big and sloppy in the butt and waist!

I'm really happy with my progress. I remember reading Jennys journal before and thinking 'there is no way I can eat only 1500 cals a day" What ive come to realize is how bad i want to make these changes. Anything can be accomplished when you put your mind to it. Ive always had the training part down, for years, now the dieting part is getting easier by the day when I see results.

[quote=Jill]He he Jstar. Do you eat the whites raw over the F1?

Yes - but not real eggwhites. I would use "All Whites" over the F1. I tried it once with real eggwhites and it wasn't as good

Hey Greeky!
If I can give you my input here...
I decided as of 9/1 that I would reach my fat loss goal by 12/31. Whenever I "start over" I would normally plunge head first into a fairly significant calorie deficit with lots of cardio & training, only to last a week, lose some water weight, make myself feel better then bam - pig out and end up right back where I started. So this time instead of cutting calories right off the bat I decided to spend 1-2 weeks eating only clean food, and not really aiming for a certain calorie level (or a certain macro % either). I just recorded it all and everything I did for those 2 weeks and tracked my fat loss as well. I am eating different calorie levels everyday but at the end of the week it averages out to about 1800. Anyways, my point is, I think only creating a deficit of 20% below maintenance is a better way to go because you won't feel as deprived and therefore less tempted to cheat.

Sorry Jill for taking over your thread for a minute

Woo Hoo!!!!
Having your pants be too loose on you - that is the best feeling in the world!
I really think you have done what everyone here wants to do:
"find what works best for you and do it."

I am SO HAPPY for you!!!

Hey Jilly! Things are looking good in here!

As I know you love your recipes I thought I'd share that I got two new recipe books this week. They are both bodybuilding/fitness type recipes so are high in protein, low to moderate in carbs and low in fat. I love them! The first one is Stella's Kitchen and the other one is The Bodyart Cookbook:Physique Transformations. They are both my new favorite cookbooks. They have awesome recipes in them. I just got them this week so haven't made anything yet, but it all looks really good.

Have a great weekend!
