I am coping with the diet by drinking glass after glass of sugar-free lemonade. I'm probably not supposed to do that because this diet is supposed "recalibrate my metabolism", but right now I miss bread so much that I can't even focus on doing any thing I'm supposed to do.  This morning I promised myself that if the scale didn't confirm there had ( Read more... )

Also, we have a friend here who thinks it's in some ways cheaper just to buy regular eggs and toss the yolks rather than do the eggs whites in a carton. Maybe that would make the eggs taste better? With some yummy herbs or spices? You know, the warming spices are supposed to be great for metabolism.

I did mix some thyme, tomatoes and peppers in them, but just the thought of them revolts me at this point. I can eat whole eggs(it's allowed but not recommended). The real forbidden food is carbs.

Sorry. I eat eggs with fresh salsa every morning, so I am definitely not revolted by eating a lot of eggs. But I do remember just not being able to eat things anymore when I've done similar things to what you're doing now, and my colleague who did it this summer had the same problem (she just could not eat another cucumber to save her life). I suppose it's all just part of the process. The good news is, it's already Friday, and you've made it this far.

I love eggs. I just hate the eggbeaters. The yolk is what makes it worthwhile to me. Celery is starting to have that effect on me too.

I hear you.

Maybe a frittata sort of thing? Changes the texture of the eggs, and you can put feta in there, maybe bacon, basil or spinach or both, tomatoes. If they're allowed. There are *some* carbs in... most things...

I don't like yolkless eggs either.

Best of luck.
