Starchile is right, 6 eggs is WAY too little to eat in a day. Here is my menu for the 3 days I did the egg fast:
Day 1: breakfast 5 scrambled eggs
lunch 3 fried eggs
dinner 4 fried eggs 12 eggs total
Day 2: breakfast 5 scrambled eggs
lunch 3 HB eggs
dinner 4 fried eggs
snack 2 HB eggs 14 eggs total
Day 3: breakfast 4 fried eggs
snack 1 HB egg
lunch 4 HB eggs
dinner 4 fried eggs 13 eggs total
Sounds pretty gross, but I was surprised it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Never hungry, no cravings. Lost 4 lbs. Pretty good trade for a few days I think.
One hint is to use onion powder with the eggs when you fry them in about 1 cup of oil. Very delicious.
As for keeping it off, I had my TOM right afterward plus had to live on atkins bars while I packed up and moved away, so the scale went up some, but as soon as TOM was over I was back down to what I lost from the egg fast. Now I'm on induction and have lost another pound in addition!
Good luck everyone!
