The Running/Keeping Fit Thread

True. It's still an odd breakfast for a diet though. Two boiled eggs on their own would be about 300 calories and I doubt it would be that filling?

2 large boiled eggs are a total of 160 claories

I used the My Fitness Pal app too. But lost the routine when I had a week off and pretty much drunk every night It is good though. Worked a treat. Infact ill restart it today.

The eggs were not all bad. It was about 80 Calories per egg and they are suprisingly filling. Especially with a mug of black coffee.

Infact, I have been told that the best breakfast you could possibly have is 2 poached eggs, 2 rashers of grilled bacon and a mug of black coffee.

Is it that high? I thought they were about 80 calories each boiled.

High in protein which fills you up.

Fair enough, that's not too bad then.

Love poached eggs, but realistically I'm not going to bother with that before work, so it's usually weetabix and a coffee for me.

I was the same, couldnt be arsed doing it. Which is why I had the idea to boil a load up and eat them during the week.

Tescos do 18 Free Range eggs for about £3. So its a pretty cheap way of breakfast. It does ****ing stink when you boil them up though

I shared a bag of Revels at the cinema yesterday evening. Then I had fish and chips last night, including 3 slices of white sliced bread for chip butties (I was educating my daughter who had never had a chip butty before - she didn't like it so I ate one of hers as well as my own). Then I had some profiteroles about an hour or so before bed.

I was 600g lighter this morning compared to both Sunday and Monday mornings.

Chip butties.

Can't believe your daub hasn't had one before. And that she didn't like it.

What's the best way to poach an egg? I used to do the poaching in a bag jobbie but it's too much faffing around.

[Alex]

I now boil the egg for about 45 seconds and then crack it into the same water for another 2 minutes. Seems to hold its shape more.

[Neil Young]

The best way is not to do it and not to eat eggs at all unless it's a meringue or in something with flour like a pancake, cake or Yorkshire pudding (sans moutarde).

I know, bizarre. I blame her parents.

Mind, I never had one until I lived in Leeds. I blame my parents.

That's not a bad idea at all. Never thought of that.

Eggs are gooooooood, man.

After years of trying, I came to the conclusion that the best way to poach an egg is to get my Ma to do it. I’ve been ****ing around with them for years and still can’t do it.



These wee things can be picked up from a Pound shop and work quite well, but I convinced myself the eggs tasted funny when using them.

[Alex]

They do taste a little funny out of them. I had some myself, but only used them a couple of times.

Does it not burn your fingers? I can't even crack a cold egg properly though.

Do you weigh yourself every single morning?
