Crash diet begins - egg day

So after a few weeks of just trying to be a bit more careful with what we eat, my weight has gone down overall by about half a stone, but seems to have stopped. This is partly due to taking breaks from dieting and having some fried food and big meals etc. Now comes the next phase and that is to follow a planned diet that is supposed to help loose a lot of weight quickly. Mary has pretty much stayed the same throughout, so hopefully she can get some real benefit from this diet. Not a typical start to the day. 7:30 3 fried eggs mashed up like a sandwich filling, just eggs. Tasty, yes, but I was going to make poached eggs. Mary had already done them when I eventually came down. I was having a bad experience after eating some left over chicken last night. I had a cup of black coffee with sugar with the eggs. Mary was having 3 sliced boiled eggs. As I have a half day today, I shall have lunch (another 3 eggs) when I get home. I shall call this 'egg day'. 8:15 cup of black decaf with sugar. 10:15 cup of black decaf with sugar. 2pm my 3 eggs (poached) for lunch, and again I mashed them up like a sandwich filling. 7:30pm another 3 eggs same as before. During the afternoon and evening I had a few more cups of black coffee with sugar, but the main event was the Wii weigh in. I have suffered from eating a bit of dodgy chicken and had heartburn to start the day. With all these eggs, this has only got worse today. I have never had so much wind and spent so much time on the toilet. It has been worth it though as we have both lost 4 pounds today. At last Mary has something positive to enjoy. Tomorrow is not much food, but a bit more variety. I found out this is called the 'Marines' diet and should be limited to 4 times in 12 months maximum as it puts quite a strain on the body.
