I too have egg every morning for breakfast, but I'll tell you how I have it - it's SO good: 1/2 toasted english muffin, then take pre-cut cheapo slice of white or yellow cheese and put on muffin, then use an egg slicer to slice a hard boiled egg - take the slices and place them over the muffin (I usually have 3 little slices left over, which I give to the doggies) - then micro for 10 seconds. De-lish! And good for ya too. |
LOL mine eggs were very different they were plain scrambed with no bread, bread is a no no on a low carb diet, plus I hate processed cheese.
The OZ diet and the Induction period of Atkins which I spent most of the last month on are not way of life eating plan diets they are designed for quick weight loss, which is what I wanted short term. That's why they are very rigid and do not allow a lot of room for substituting. With both diets if you stayed on the plan for the whole day and cheated with a few snacks at night you will find yourself easily gaining weight, yesterday I had eggs and bacon for breakfast, a healthy size chicken breast for lunch with mashed cauliflower and a pound of crab legs with drawn butter for dinner, with some veggies to snack on. I had to be careful not to overdo the veggies because it could put me over the carb limit. The protein in the Atkins diet burns fat but when you though in to many carbs you blow.
