Foil packet??!!

What's with all the eggs?

[JanB]

The egg diet???

[Ally]

Are you on an egg diet Ossie?

Ostrich eggs by any chance?

[TheOstrich]

Yes indeed, the egg diet.

One is always on a diet of some sort in this household ...... and they do work, more or less . But whilst every diet is often successful the first time you do it, it's less so thereafter, I find, especially for ostriches.

What is interesting is that one of the most successful diets I've ever done was the 7-day GM (General Motors of America) diet, which involved at least one set day on nothing but bananas and milk . Over the years, this has been roundly rubbished by nutritionists and dieticians, so on, as a quack diet .... however, it was interesting to see it heavily promoted in a Times supplement a couple of weeks back as the "go-to" diet of 2017 if you want to get your body toned up for the beach!

What goes around, comes around, I guess, especially if it's a fad ...

I remember the Mayo Clinic diet featured a lot of eggs. And grapefruit I love eggs ( and eat one at least, most days ) but not so keen on grapefruit! It promised a 20lb loss in two weeks but I only lasted three days.....

That was many many years ago
