Once a week i make the fake scrambled eggs with cheese... the only way I like regular eggs is in eggs Benedict with a lot of sauce.... and English muffin with yogurt butter and sugar free jelly..
 And a cup of cappuccino with real cream.

I eat that exact thing about every other weekend.  Except 1/2 bagel in place of the toast with Philadelphia low fat veggie cream cheese (which is very good, BTW)  Oh and black coffee--lots of that.  Heaven!

In my case it's about ever other DAY.  So far no ill effects but I do nuke the bacon instead of frying it!

True story - my husband had too low cholesterol - would you believe down to 69 at one time - and as a result he enjoyed a breadfast of eggs and bacon almost every morning.  If he was in a hurry then he would eat a bowl of cereal.

I just watched the first episode of "Breaking Bad" where the main dude is served "Veggie Bacon."

I think I'm going to like the series.

Its awesome.  As the series progresses, you'll be even more impressed.  The quality of the writing is just phenominal.

How do you nuke bacon?  Doesn't it make a mess of your microwave?

Nope! Just fold a couple of paper towels and put them under the bacon on a plate and then cover with another paper towel and turn on the nuke machine.

They have microwave 'plates' for bacon...the grease drops away.

Cover with paper towel...4 strips for 3:30 seconds and it's perfectly crunchy.   :laugh:

So you're telling me that two egg, two strips of bacon, one slice of dry toast, and glass of orange juice breakfast is OK?

Are you taking on any new patients?

Absolutely. Take a one hour walk every day and you're good to go.

Dear Dr. Aligncare,

I am very close to a woman that has been losing "Just another ten pounds"....going on thirteen years?   She never really eats, and when she does eat a cheeseburger, she throws away the roll.

I was puzzled.  She walks 4-5 miles two or three times a week.  Still....she says that she needs to lose "just another ten pounds and I'll be where I need to be".  Excitedly.

Then I had run into her at the gym and I understood what may be going on....she never pushed herself to even break a sweat.  Can't run that make-up....

You must get the heart pumping.  You must sweat.

Otherwise, forgettaboutit
