Flame Free Confession III: Even More Flame Free (Part 1)

My wife tried so many times to reintroduce eggs in various different forms, to no avail. Even fresh eggs that one of her company’s clients brings in (talking so fresh, they still have feathers stuck to them) cause her distress. Fortunately, watching me eat a dozen a day for 4 weeks has put her well off of them.

@EmilyQ I went to the store today and the generic large eggs were $2.79/dz. The next cheapest dozen were $3.29 and the fancy eggs from chickens raised on unicorn farts were $4.99 - $6.99. This is seriously crimping my current 9 eggs per day habit.

Building the monolith?

I ran the program twice and didn’t notice any unusual uptick in appetite

And, to be clear, you’re saying you ran the program and ate a dozen eggs and 1.5 lbs of beef, along with other food, every day for 6 weeks, twice?

Aren’t you always hungry though?

Always hungry and weighs 100lbs

I know a cure for that.

I get hungry just reading about the program.

To be clear, she ran some parts of the program, skipped large chunks of other bits (like most, if not all of the assistance), didn’t follow the diet and added loads of junk conditioning.

For sure man … now my son is starting to like eggs - my wife and I are seriously considering 6 or 7 chickens - maybe more depending on our egg needs.

No I ran the program and didn’t feel the need to eat all that :sweat_smile::sweat_smile:

You don’t have fruits when dieting?..

Does anyone remember Lamar Alexander’s presidential run, which fell apart when (or in part because) during an interview he didn’t know the cost of eggs and milk, and was branded an elitist? At the time I had four small children, who drank approximately 96 gallons of milk a week, and I also had no idea despite having never to that point having identified as “the elite.”

But I am the elite. A Washington insider, almost. I continue to buy eggs without the slightest qualm, because I have no clue what they cost. This morning:

Also, here is my email to the small store in my village, which we typically don’t really shop, but wish to survive the pandemic. I confess it felt a bit awkward writing it out!

Hello all, I left a voicemail message asking about depositing cash with you. [Mr. Q] read the email saying “last day” after you’d already closed to foot traffic. Anyway, we’d like to give you cash so you can save the credit card fee. Here are the things we need (haha, “need”):

Medium roast coffee, ground
2 bottles of pinot grigio or pinot gris
12 pack of Coors Light
6 Biggy Iggy’s, or however many you feel can be spared
2 dozen eggs, large white if possible
half gallon 2% milk

Let me know how we should manage the money piece, and what’s next in terms of pickup.

Thanks, and stay well!

Have you ever felt the need to eat anything? Like, ever?

Mmkay, and i think even Jim might make an exception for you in the way of dropping a couple eggs or a bit of beef (though maybe not), but it doesn’t really make sense to be like “I ran that and didn’t see a change in appetite” when you didn’t eat what was prescribed.

Now, if you were to actually run it AND eat all 504 eggs and 63 lbs of beef, I could pretty much guarantee you’d have THE most impressive results out of anyone who has ever ran that program.

I confess that I finally pulled the trigger on the Bas Rutten Body Action system

My confession is that I am still not at terms with the fact that I’m no longer a fighter, and this was yet another impulse buy trying to desperately recapture that part of my youth. But now I can convince myself I got it for my kid to practice the Tae Kwon Do I am teaching them.

Also, since I have grey hair but also have acne, I like to claim that my median age is still low.
