I'm doing the eggs and wine diet for the giggles

[adviceseeker22]

Day one! It's a low activity day, so I would think I'll survive!

Amazing, I may join in

Maybe steer clear of operating any heavy machinery for the foreseeable

And naked flames....

I remember this diet, it was one of many in a thick book … name escapes me, but there was one that was only brown rice. They ranged from one day to two weeks. Another 3 day one was mostly eggs and lemons and I had some success with that. I always had that last half a stone to lose in the 80s.

Are you working while doing this? What sort of work and is there a chance someone will notice the wine at lunchtime?

In general, though, OP, I am all agog and want you to stick to it to the bitter end in the spirit of scientific enquiry.

This is hilarious. Very 1970s. I feel like at the end of the meal plan it should read 'now go to a party, throw your keys in a bowl and have fun'.

Hahaaa

Wine definitely doesn't control my eating. I'd have a couple of glasses of wine then want crisps.

Three days of eating eggs and drinking wine? And you started on a Monday?

Well I work in tech and have 20 meetings every day. TBH my syntax is becoming quite convoluted so they might notice in that way.

I find eggs make me constipated and 3 everyday I couldn't tolerate and I would never drink wine for breakfast. 😲

Same, and I was much lighter than now so maybe there's something in it

@TitInATrance
That would be the Vogue book of diets.

Probably missing the point, but my first reaction was 'black coffee with dinner, oh no, I'd be awake all night...'

What's day 2- is it still white wine, or do you graduate to red?

Just had dinner, just a bit spaced out. Now having coffee.i definitely crave something sweet.

no dessert.

take your lover to your chamber instead.

I think Mick Jagger is supposed to turn up and sing 'Brown Sugar'

could I replace the wine for vodka?
and all the boiled eggs for crisps?

I've actually have thought of swapping the wine for vodka (I might try it in a couple of months).

If you could swap the wine for g&t and the eggs for doritos I'd consider it.

Thank you so much for this experiment op! It's fascinating!
My grandad used to call hard boiled eggs "bung em'" because he couldn't go to the bathroom after.
Are you having the wine then coffee? I guess both of those will keep you regular 😂
I wonder why they chose white instead of red wine, especially with your tiny steak 😂 I really hope you can carry on tomorrow, I want to know if it works lol.it's like Atkins but then you have the wine. P.s I'd have the diet coke.

Ha ha, yeah too drunk to be hungry. Why have I just found out about this diet now?! Finally a diet I can commit to!

God, I am so bloody invested, you’ve got this OP!

Ok, so I still haven't gone for a number 2 (sorry for the TMI). Had an awful night. DH couldn't sleep either, so I don't think that helped. I was hungry, but woke up feeling ok.

Lost 3 lbs!

That diet works out at approximately 1370 calories per day so you can see how you'd lose some weight temporarily by doing it for the 3 days... but it wouldn't work for me as wine gives me the munchies and I'd be gnawing my own arm off by 11am! 😂
