Boiled Egg Diet, Hard Boiled Egg Diet
Heard of the Boiled Egg Diet or the Hard Boiled Egg Diet? There is so much talk on the internet about eating hard boiled eggs and nothing else, to lose weight.
You probably heard of the rumour that Adrian Brody (The Pianist actor) eat only hard boiled eggs and lost 30 pounds in 6 weeks for his role.
The rumour though is not true, here’s what he said about his diet: "I had two boiled eggs, and then I had nothing for about 5 hours, then a small piece of chicken, grilled, and then 4 or 5 hours later a small piece of fish and a few steamed vegetables." So, is eating so many eggs good for you and can help in weight loss?
Old advice to limit eggs to just a few each week has been abandoned. According to the Food Standards Agency, there’s now no limit to the number of eggs you can eat in a week as part of a healthy balanced diet.

The Boiled Egg Diet and Weight Loss
New research shows you could lose 2lb a month just by eating eggs for breakfast. According to new research from the Rochester Centre for Obesity in America, eating eggs for breakfast could help you to limit calorie intake per day, by more than 400 calories. For the study, 30 overweight or obese women were divided into two groups which had either an egg-based breakfast (2 eggs) or a bagel-based breakfast, containing the same amount of calories and almost identical levels of protein. The women who had eaten eggs for breakfast felt less hungry and ate a smaller lunch. As a result, they consumed on average, 417 calories less than the bagel-eating group.
This study suggests that eating eggs for breakfast makes you feel fuller for longer so that you eat less during your remaining meals that day. This is great news if you’re trying to lose weight as it means you may find it easier to cut calorie intake per day without feeling hungry. In fact, based on these results you could expect to lose up to 2lb a month, simply by eating eggs for breakfast!
How to Cook Eggs:
