Egg Fast Day 5
NOTE FOR THE DAY: Most people Egg Fast for 3-5 days at a stretch. By Day 5, many people will be anxious to finish and perhaps, not eat another egg for a while. The Fluffys are a little loony, because we love eggs so much, we could and do, eat them every day. This is the last day in the 5 day Egg Fast program. The BRINNER (Breakfast for Dinner) menu is lovely and filling, making you forget you’re on an egg fast. The Psylli Pumpkin Spice Egg Fast Pancakes with Salted Caramel Syrup is filling and perfect fall food. If you don’t care for a particular meal, feel free to substitute meals, days, or rotations. We tend to lose between 5-7lbs during the 5 day Egg Fast (most of that is water). We transition back to non-Egg Fast food over the next week. Most will see some regain, but if you raise carb levels very slowly, you will be able to maintain most of that loss as true weight loss. We’ve found doing alternate day Egg Fasts (ADF) during the next 5-7 days, helps aid the transition. On alternating days we will do a straight Egg Fast with 5-6g total carbs and on alternating days we will eat our normal LCHF keto plan (based on Page 4 Diet), eating less than 20g total carbs from the specified Page 4 food list.
