is this something you came up with?

My sister is morbidly obese. Some years ago, she lost quite a bit of weight doing this. I did a little research and in about 2000, I did it for about 3 months and lost 45 lbs in conjunction with daily exercise, getting ready for elk season. My cholesterol and blood pressure both dropped considerably during that time. I had had a 250 cholesterol and a blood pressure of 140/90. At the end of that period, my cholesterol was 210 and my BP was 120/80. I did eat other proteins and almost no carbs. I took a gammaglobulin test on Thursday and on Friday it came back with a blood sugar level of 85, which is healthy. I was formerly at 105 in April; not quite pre-diabetic but not great. These are non-fasting numbers.

You can use ketchup once in a while but it's loaded with sugar.

Get reduced sugar ketchup and mix it with hot sauce.

Good job, pman. 

Don't forget scotch eggs.

I did forget those! Thanks, Flounderz.

Man you need to build a chicken coup bud!  We have chickens.  Very happy with the net result.  Cheap, easy, healthy.  I think you would need at least 10 layers to keep up with your appetite!
MAGA!  Again..

Nice thought but no. Older couple and we no longer have or want any living thing depending on us to keep them alive and healthy. Winco lays just as many eggs as I need. :chuckle:

Nice to loose the weight. But the cholesterol overdose of 9 eggs daily would kill you fatster that being over weight.

The body needs carbs as long as you get enough excersize :twocents:

I'll have another cholesterol test in a month and will let you know. I fully expect to see a drop as I did the last time. And no, you don't need carbs. Man subsisted for 10s of 1000s of years without much more than meat and plants. When your body doesn't spend all of it's time processing carbs, it processes fats and protein.

Great job! This plan works. My brother currently following a very similar regiment. Equal results. He's just following the eating plan and walking. Keep up the work!  :tup:

You don't need carbs. But a small amount of carbs with 1 to 2 meals a day helps in processing certain fats.  It also helps with cravings when going to a low to no carb diet. 
I'd also suggest scrambled eggs in coconut oil instead of butter.  The flavor is totally different than anything I had ever tasted.  Adding spinach was good too.

We've pretty much switched completely to coconut oil instead of butter. So good. John, you should try it. It's a lot healthier too.

Nice work. That is a lot of eggs and if I did that, the gas would be terrible. My two cents are that you are on the right track but it's not the eggs that are doing it but more that you are increasing protein intake and reducing carbs and sugars. I wouldn't hesitate to swap out some of those eggs with chicken breasts, fish, lean red meat etc. A strict diet doesn't have to equate to a boring diet. I would also recommend taking a look at what carbs and fats you are consuming. A healthy diet needs both of those to maintain a good cholesterol level as well and blood pressure.

My cholesterol is 260 and blood sugar as of this morning is 205 , yesterday blood pressure was 155/84
That's my one shot.

I have a meat, spinach, and 5 egg scramble every morning plus 3 more hard boiled eggs throughout the day as well.  I fry mine in olive oil.  Anyone who uses coconut oil for anything has a screw loose in my opninion :puke:   :chuckle:

The coconut oil based butter flavored popcorn oil is the best, for popcorn.  I have a screw loose.
