Jimmy Moore Ends His One-Month 'Eggfest' With Filet Mignon & Veggies

From March 12 through April 10, 2010, http://www.livinlavidalowcarb.com/blog author Jimmy Moore put himself on a self-experiment of eating just eggs, butter, and cheese (local farm pastured eggs, grass-fed butter, and raw cheese) to see what would happen to him. Here's a post about the eggs-periment:

In a span of 28 days, Jimmy was able to shed a total of 27 pounds on this all-egg diet and, more importantly, was able to FINALLY beat his addiction to diet soda after a six-year battle to get that under control. Read about some of the other changes that happened to Jimmy as a result of his "eggfest":

He decided to "break" this eggfest at a meeting of low-carb/Paleo dieters in the Upstate of South Carolina with a meal consisting of filet mignon with Monterey Jack cheese, tomato slices, and mixed veggies (broccoli and squash) with lots of butter. It was his first non-egg meal in a month and by the look on his face in the video was absolutely scrumptious!

Ate over a dozen whole eggs per day.

@livinlowcarbman How did you eat them? Raw, boiled, scrambled? Personally, I only eat mine scrambled

[livinlowcarbman]

@PsychopathInFoil Country scrambled. :D

Wow, i wish this could be broadcasted by the View or something or put in a heath study. Never would have thought of this as healthy...but your 27 pound lost proved it was good for something... So, if u did get off lc, what was your trigger food?

[livinlowcarbman]

@shsu97 I've not been off of low-carb for over six years. But I got a little sloppy maybe allowing a few more products to enter than I needed. My trigger is anything "sweet" to the tongue despite having zero calories. It stoked my cravings, but now they're gone.

You ate around 8-12 eggs a day, would a woman need to eat less on the eggfest? I have started today, but dont want to overeat. Thanks

[livinlowcarbman]

@soheavenlei2u Eat as many as you'd like to satisfy your hunger.

Eggs, butter, cheese would make me so constipated by the second day

[xwsftassell]

Vegetables. Ugh.

[MissXMarlboro]

I really need to try this. Once I get a taste of sugar-free sweet stuff or low-carb baked goods, I have to basically lock myself in my room to prevent a binge. I gained 1 pound in the past week because there's just too much sweet stuff around. My sister brings home bags and bags of malitol candy and it never stalls her, but I have to be way more careful. Ugh!!

enjoy your clogged arteries and heart attack in the coming years

How many eggs did you eat each day? And did you eat the yolks as well? Just curious because I love eggs and cheese and I wanna try this.
