What veggies and how much during U. eating phase

[jbenton1]

I was wondering. What vegetables and how much is recommended during the under eating phase, and is it alright to have an egg when you first wake up ?

I dont think the egg is a good idea, Egg as far as i know is a slow digesting protien so...you know...

If you want light protiens maybe a yoghurt?

as for the veg, I eat two..some eat none...I think if you want the optimal fat loss effect then eat none.

Its all relative though to what you want and how much youll give up to have it, I want a 300 style body so accordingly, i am abstaining from nearly everything not recommended and if it comes to it, ill drop everything to have it.

If you wanna cut some fat then you dont have to follow the diet with 100% dedication, but if you want the big effect then your gonna have to give up that egg in the morning :P

Why wouldn't you eat any veggies in the undereating phase to lose fat?

Did the book say egg was ok? i thought he only said that kefir and yoghurt was the way to go . . .

I read on Uri's board at some point that a complete fast helps fat loss (advice given by one experianced guy to some other new guy)

Eggs are fine by the book. The key thing is under eating. The question really is if you need the protein during the under eating phase. If you do - go with the egg, if you don't - a fully fasted state is a good way to go and liberating!

You probably already know this.

I just read somewhere in some book ( I think it was Prevention or one of Dr. Weils magazines) that people who regularly ate eggs, I think it was 2 a day, had a more significant death rate than people who didn't. I am still debating whether to eat them regularly or not. I know in the book "The GI Mediterranean Diet", they have a weekly eating guide in the back that has you eating eggs 3 times a week.

I eat 3 eggs a day- have been since Jan (thats about 360 eggs)- my overall cholesterol is way down. My good C is the highest ever and my trigs are the lowest they ever been. I have always enjoyed the benefits of eggs. Prevention Mag is far from cutting edge. They are a voice of the established BS, You reall need to read Taubes.


About the book and questions- they are two type of questions- one that a third grader can answer with a copy of the book- the other type is to clarify a point not spelled out or listed in a sidebox, like asking a teacher or professor in class. Buying the material goes a long way for everyone.
