Garbage disposal?
My daughter doesn't like chocolate and peanut butter together but the EB still keeps bringing her Reese's pb eggs each year. I tell her that is where the phrase "dumb bunny" comes from and then I eat them myself.5 -
This thread is amazing. Let me just see if I've got this.
The OP asks a vague, random question about eggs at Easter. A few well meaning responders offer suggestions on both the chocolate and hard boiled egg fronts. OP comes back and clarifies that she meant hard boiled eggs. People point out that hard boiled eggs are one of the lowest calorie forms of protein one can eat. People also point out the fallacy of the idea that fictional bunnies would eat hard boiled eggs. OP lashes out saying that she's on a super strict, and here is where I feel like I must have misread something, MMA training plan which restricts even 70 calories of egg protein, maybe just the yolk because I think she said she could eat the whites? She then calls the responders a bunch of names and tells us to go F ourselves, which I find ironic given the original question was about Easter which is a Christian holiday and that doesn't seem in keeping with the spirit of Easter but whatevs... then a bunch more people who didn't read the whole thread are giving chocolate egg suggestions.
Did I get all that right?
That's pretty much it, except that her kids are SMART, damn it, and will check the trash in order to catch her in a lie about a fictional rodent that eats biologically inappropriate food and leaves candy behind to commemorate the Death and Resurrection of a Jewish political prisoner from roughly 2000 years ago.15 -
Seriously lmao.
1. Who leaves anything for the Easter Bunny?
2. If you did, why would it be hard boiled eggs?
3. If you started a tradition of leaving hard boiled eggs and don't want to eat them....you can figure out how to get rid of them????
And Kruggeri...nice recap

I will the egg whites and figure something out for the kids. I eat eggs all the time but I'm not interested in saving my whole days worth of calories and throwing all the proportions off. I asked for advice you either give it or get the *kitten* off this thread. Tired of all the apps people gotta be trolling.
If your kids aren't stupid and are checking the trash to see if you tossed the eggs then they are certainly smart enough to not be wasteful and leave out eggs for an imaginary bunny. Just don't do it.
This. If they're checking the trash for "proof," they already have the hint that there's no Easter Bunny. IMO.
If they had no doubts, they wouldn't be pawing through garbage looking for evidence. It wouldn't even occur to them.
When our kids started to "outgrow" Santa Claus, we didn't go through elaborate schemes to keep them believing. They already had the doubts - they were getting it. Sure, at first it was a little bit of dancing around - "Daddy is only looking on Amazon to give Santa Claus ideas for what you'd like for Christmas" - but that's as far as we took it. We started to "phase them out," going gently, by introducing the story of the real St. Nicholas. Today they feel there is a "spirit" of Christmas but don't believe an actual breathing man physically comes into our house on Christmas Eve. If your kids are getting to the piont where they're trying to scope out the truth...just give it to them.

I'm late to the thread here, but....I'm so confused.
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?1 -

Oh yeah. OP if you come back to this thread, and I have my suspicions that you will, can you please let us know how old your kids are? I need to figure out at what age mine are likely to start snooping in the trash for evidence because they may find other things in there, like some of their least stellar art work, that I don't want them to find.

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.

In the meantime, how is everyone's Peep cleanse coming? Racing right along?

I'd say these kids are that smart they are looking to see how mammy is gonna get rid of the eggs this year!! Seen as they are checking for evidence in the trash....Probably have bets on to see if she'll cope on that rabbits don't even eat eggs

If hard boiled you could try getting one of those kits that blows the egg out of the shell and make a quiche. If chocolate, well, you could put fewer out. You could also make egg shaped cookies and have fun decorating them and then instead of eating them all at once, freeze them and bring them to work. You could bring the chocolate to work too.
There is nothing wrong with sweets. Chocolate doesn't go bad so if you get it to your office, you can portion out a little bit every day; same with cookies. If these are hard boiled eggs, I see a lot of egg salad in your future.
Hard boiled
wait, we are not even talking about candy???????
^^ My thoughts exactly! I eat hard boiled eggs every day!

I would have thought hard-boiled eggs would be at the top of the list for foods to eat for competitive training diets. Low calorie with good protein count and all that.
I guess the MMA is full of flabby wusses these days. What a shame.
In other news, don't forget the Easter Bunny poops jelly beans. Your kids are eating poop!!!!

One Easter on our way to church we passed a dead bunny in the road and my father said "There goes Peter Cottontail!" Easter was never the same lol.

My college dining hall served stewed rabbit as one of the options on Easter when I was a freshman. I'm sure it was an intended joke.1

This. Just This. Thank you for the LOLZ.0 -
You don't have to eat them....unless they're chocolate. One MUST eat all the chocolate! Seriously, eat, log, enjoy your holiday.0

I've lost about 60 but have another 80 to go. So no fitting an egg in is a problem. Whatever you guys have at it. I asked for advice and all I get is basically *kitten*. I found someone who helped me with it so ummm peace. The only quacks I have found today are right here. If it weren't for this app being so helpful with keeping track of what I eat I would say *kitten* it and delete this *kitten*. Real *kitten* supports up in here.
woahhhh angry much?0 -

You know, that's never really helpful. What are people who live in the "first world" supposed to have, if not "first world" problems? That being said, I do agree that hard-boiled eggs shouldn't even be an issue. I think the idea of egg salad or something else is a good idea.

There should be a "hall of fame" forum on these boards, and threads like these should be put there for posterity.
I only get this serious about pizza.1 -
I don't understand why people are not just more helpful, and offer suggestions that are legitimate: See if your psychiatrist will take a few off your hands - problem solved.4

I like to believe the mods don't really nuke crazy threads, they stash them in a secret forum and one day will open them up like a time capsule.1
