If you want me to leave, you can put your hands on my hot, tight little body and make me.

No, wait, deviled eggs and egg salad is divine.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I like omelets if there's hot sauce in the eggs. Fucking ruined some other people's breakfasts, though. Never gave it a thought.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, that's nothing like what I did.

Punishingly Intricate

mmmm I wish I had some deviled eggs right now!

I have found through obsessively tracking my nutritional intake without really having much of a dietary plan per se that if I eat less than about 1000 calories in a day I feel really bad by late afternoon or so - weak and tired and fuzzy-brained and ready to cry at the drop of a hat. So doing that on purpose two days a week sounds like a really bad idea to me.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

A bunch of studies say that regular fasting/calorie restriction is good for your health. Problem is most people find fasting onerous so it's hard to maintain. But just as good is fasting 12 hours every day.

~t, that's what I meant by onerous. It's hard to do, tends to make you feel bad, etc. I can't imagine fasting on a regular basis.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Lisah, I am intrigued. I have ordered the book. I actually think this is something I could do, and, god knows, I have about 30 lbs hanging around that I would be happy to see go away.

Because books.

I have never met an egg I wouldn't eat, including the reconstituted ones in McMuffins. I love all eggs equally!

But my bacon must be extra crispy, verging on burned.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm glad you people just made me remember to hard-boil some more eggs.
