Oh, okay, the pig thing makes sense. I just assumed it was a weight loss thing.
As for the eggs, yeah, I rarely eat for hunger either so I know how that goes. The eggs actually help me in that way, I don't know why, I just feel better and more energetic and less likely to overeat when I have them for breakfast. The reasons they gave for eating them were more that the protein in the morning starts the metabolism off right, and you actually burn a lot more calories by having a lean protein in the morning then you would otherwise. I've found that to be true, because we get our eggs from my SIL who has chickens, and when I ran out I lost no weight that week, but was eating and exercising the same. When I had the eggs for breakfast for a couples weeks I lost 5 pounds. Maybe it was a coincidence, but, I got my egg carton refilled yesterday just to see what happens ;-)
