I am a married 40 something from Michigan. I am down 50 pounds so far from my highest with about 30 more to get to goal. I am accepting friend requests from people with open diaries who are eating more than 1,000 calories a day and not doing anything weird fad thing. You know, normal people losing weight the old fashioned…

I eat a hard-boiled egg most weekdays and a couple of fried eggs on the weekend and my cholesterol level is very good. Try to find farm-fresh eggs from a local producer if you can. Store-bought commercially produced eggs just don't compare.
