I work out. I train. I eat two hard boiled eggs a day. I boil a whole bunch and they last for a week. Why can't they fit into your diet again? How many eggs are we talking here?
Because she's doing some kinda super restrictive (I'm assuming VLCD) "training" so she can get in an MMA class next year, is what I gather.
So 70 calories (or 17 for just whites) of a high protein, filling nutritious food is totes off limits.
Wow. Not downing on anyone's dreams because I think training for MMA is a nice goal, but trying to do a VLCD is not going to work out in so many ways. You are going to have lost a lot of muscle mass and it'll end up being a bigger struggle to maintain.
Hell, you'll definitely need to attempt a bulk and cut to regain the muscle mass and since you didn't figure out how to work eggs into a one day thing and flipping out on people actually pointing out some things..well... *shrugs*
my friend in Boston does MMA training and he eats like a beast…
I was up there last summer and we went out for sushi and he took down like four rolls and two servings of ice cream on his own ….and he is like 200 pounds and shredded….
But not one single egg.
Because abstaining from eggs is the only way to persevere in the eight sided circle.
No, because a 70-calorie egg is too gigantic amount to take out of only a 2000-calorie a day or so diet.
ha, my friend in Boston probably eats 3000 a day ..minimum....
LUCKY. He can probably work half an egg in there!
If you are working eggs in there, please make sure it's a whole egg.
I seriously hope this isn't in reference to the Jade Egg, but if it is, awesome, am laughin'.
I seriously hope it IS in reference to the Jade Egg. Because really, it's excellent advice. Imagine the yolk crumbs.
I'm dying laughing over here.0 -

And there's still a fertility tie-in, so really, it's the perfect answer for that special mom-of-10's Easter basket.

There really is no reason to fear eggs. After all, we're more dangerous to them than they are to us.

Wait, wait, wait, how did I not know the Easter bunny is Peter Cottontail?
In fact, upon further research, this is highly confusing.
When I was a child I read the series of books by Thornton Burgess about various animals, one of whom was Peter Cottontail (also Peter Rabbit, not to be confused with Beatrix Potter's Peter Rabbit, who also was not the Easter Bunny):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Cottontail
But apparently in the 1970s (although I managed not to see it despite being the right generation) there was an Easter special about Peter Cottontail a "young Easter bunny" employed by the "Chief Easter bunny" named, of course, Colonel Wellington B. Bunny. And it gets weirder:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Here_Comes_Peter_Cottontail
I also never realized Here Comes Peter Cottontail was supposed to be an Easter song, but I only know the first line or two.
I seriously have always assumed the Easter bunny was female.
For the record, when I was a child I was firmly convinced that cats and dogs were the same animal, but cats were the female version and dogs the male version. Somehow this seems relevant.

But what about Little Bunny Foo Foo? Where does he fit into all this?

If there had been an Easter lizard I would have been a lot more interested in Easter as a child.1

Not going to read back through this now. Can someone let me know whether OP came back to discuss the concept of leaving eggs out for the Easter Bunny? I was intrigued.0

All I know is that he seriously needs to stop scooping up field mice and bopping them on the head.
The mice are threatening to boycott the field entirely.0 -

Maybe the good fairy will have some suggestions as to what OP can do with the eggs so that her children don't find them.

So are we assuming Little Bunny Foo Foo is male because he or she is naughty and violent?
Seems sexist.0 -
Eggs are protein use for salads. What's the big deal?0

Ok, you got me. I literally just sang the entire song to myself and there were no gender identifying pronouns anywhere in it, for little bunny foo foo anyway. The good fairy is clearly identified as female by the line, "Down Came the Good Fairy, and SHE said..."
(confession - I also did the hand signs. I'm still at work.)
