I *love* hardboiled and scrambled eggs. Especially when I cook them myself. I wonder if there is something to the Zenkitty powdered egg thing.
I also wonder if there is a random seasoning that I don't like that makes me want to give up the ghost. For example, some curries are nearly the death of me.
I can deal with omelets--with ham and cheese--and sometimes scrambled, but non mixed-up eggs are not done. It's the texture, for me.
I did some fasting a few years ago, I don't know if it's the same as the Fasting Diet.
On the Fasting Diet you eat a normal, healthy diet 5 days a week (like a Mediterranean-type diet) and then 2 days a week you severely restrict your calories.
eta: here was the NPR story from this week:
No, wait, deviled eggs and egg salad is divine.
I like omelets if there's hot sauce in the eggs. Fucking ruined some other people's breakfasts, though. Never gave it a thought.
Oh, that's nothing like what I did.
mmmm I wish I had some deviled eggs right now!
I have found through obsessively tracking my nutritional intake without really having much of a dietary plan per se that if I eat less than about 1000 calories in a day I feel really bad by late afternoon or so - weak and tired and fuzzy-brained and ready to cry at the drop of a hat. So doing that on purpose two days a week sounds like a really bad idea to me.
A bunch of studies say that regular fasting/calorie restriction is good for your health. Problem is most people find fasting onerous so it's hard to maintain. But just as good is fasting 12 hours every day.
~t, that's what I meant by onerous. It's hard to do, tends to make you feel bad, etc. I can't imagine fasting on a regular basis.
