Are eggs a healthy diet food for weight loss? Can you seriously lose weight by eating eggs? I thought eggs contained a lot of fat and cholesterol that would be bad for my health?

Questions, questions, questions. What's the usual response to questions? Good guess! Well, here they are.....

---Protein: 7 grams

---Saturated Fat: 1.7 grams

---Monounsaturated Fat (HEALTHY FAT): 2.3 grams

---Polyunsaturated Fat (HEALTHY FAT): 0.9 grams

---Calories: 76 calories (Egg and yolk)

---Calories: 17 calories (Egg white w/no yolk!)

(Ahh, the #1 concern with eggs! Guess what? The lecithin in eggs actually helps absorb the consumption of cholesterol! Not to mention, did you know that all of our bodies need a small amount of cholesterol daily? Well, it's true! The obvious caution would be to not go over the recommended daily value. Remember, there is no cholesterol in the egg white, so.....).

---Vitamins/Minerals: Excellent source of Vitamins B and A. Also, eggs contain a plethora of minerals that are all essential for our bodies.

Think eggs are bad for you now?

To make eggs an exceptional diet food, I recommend you firstly boil eggs, and secondly use more egg whites than you do yolk. By removing the yolk, you are significantly dropping the calorie amount and cholesterol (the yolk is where the bulk of calories are) amount.

Now, just eating egg whites can take some getting used to if you are eating them as is. For this, I recommend a 3 to 1 ratio of egg whites and yolk (3 hard boiled egg whites and 1 yolk), and this way you can maintain some flavor with your eggs.....and still keep it as a super health food!

Due to the excellent amount of protein in eggs, you can rest assure that eggs are HIGHLY recommended for building lean muscle and burning off fat. The more muscle tissue you have on your body....the more fat your body will burn! This program here will help you create your own custom diet to provide you with more "super" food options, plus show you how you can shift the calories from the foods you eat so that you can achieve fat loss and weight loss faster.

There are a ton of different ways you can eat eggs. You can put egg whites on salad (add chicken breast and you got yourself a super, super food!), have them as is, make them as a sandwich, have them along with other healthy foods to make a meal, you can have them as a quick snack, and so much more!

One more thing. One of the knocks on making hard boiled eggs is peeling them. There is a solution for that....
