Well these really wont be steps on how to do the egg diet since I already put those up on my first article. I will more let you all know how I am doing. It was weird because on the first day of the egg diet I felt GREAT. I had energy, wasnt hungry at all and this is going to sound weird but my pants were already very loose. My plan is to not weigh myself until the end of one month. That will be hard to do because I feel like I'm already loosing.
Step2
Today I have been soooooooo tired. However on a more personal note, my hubby has been in and out of the hospital twice this week and was in ICU 2 days ago and is in CCU now, so the exhaustion I think is normal and not diet related.
Step3
Still not hungry, I had 4 hard boiled eggs for breakfast, although I am not hungry I find myself looking at those stupid fruity pebbles a lot. I love them, and can not have them. The war is on! Wish me luck everyone!

Also, one tends to get tired of eating hard boiled eggs fairly quickly, I'd say in the first day or two for most, therefore your appetite will be suppressed since you know that's your only food choice. If you eat a dozen eggs a day, you'll only be consuming around 840 calories, well below what the average person should consume. Many more than a dozen and you will probably feel rather ill. Dedicated dieters can pull it off though. If you can indeed put up with eating eggs for an extended period of time, there are only a few problems you are facing. One is dehydration. Fats and proteins require more water for digestion, yet this type of diet t

It seems to be but I was sooooooo tired today so I had a bowl of cereal to pick myself back up. I'll let you know how much weight I lose on the 16th when I get weighed again.
