Well having said that I put marmite in both scrambled eggs and omelettes, and I know some people on here would be disgusted by that!

well i'll post back the results of my chicken omelette , never cooked one before

Plan is chicken, red and green peppers , mushrooms and some chillis cooked off before then beat 2 eggs with little milk. place previous ingredinats in frying pan and then pour misture over and cook till firmish , place under grill for a min or so

That would make a very healthy meal, don't worry about the fat as the fats contained in a chicken omelette are all healthy and yes that includes the cholesterol and the saturated fats. Eggs are a superfood, that's why I eat 6 a day, everyday

The only thing you need to concern yourself with is what you cook it in. Don't use vegetable oil, this stuff is absolute garbage and is VERY UNHEALTHY!!!!! Either use butter or olive oil, both of these are the healthiest oils to use. Don't use margarine either, this is just as bad as vegetable oil and is very unhealthy. That includes all the crap like Flora and Omega 3 enriched, blah, blah, marketing lies. Pure 100% butter is far healthier for you

Garbage.

Fat doesn't make you fat, excess calories make you fat.

If you sat down and ate fat-free chocolate all day what do think would happen? Think you'd get fat? Because you would.

How do you think the Atkins and other ketosis diets work if fat makes you fat?

Certain fats, like trans fats are super unhealthy, just as bad as cigarettes imho!! Main culprit of making you fat are simple sugary carbs as they cause insulin spikes which encourage the storage of fat. When they subside you feel hungry and want to eat again very soon, this is a vicious circle that encourages you to eat more and eat excess calories.

Result? Bodyfat.

That's a very, super simplified view, the human body and nutrition are far too complicated to go into in a post like this.

Mmmm nearly solid protein meal. I'd like to see you try and poo after that one

Some people have some really disturbing fetishes :confused:

no milk here but I end up with some weird omelettes when I haven't got any food left - e.g. Noodle and salsa

sounds good to me, almost like a Spanish omelet, but with noodles instead of potatoes.

Nah, 3 eggs lightly beaten (so that white and yolk arent thoroughly mixed), add some sea salt and black pepper then cooked in a very hot pan for 1 minutes, moving them fast and allowing to 'set' for the last 15 seconds. Throw on a filling and roll onto a plate. Done.

That's how me mother makes them, wonderful.

I didn't realise how much fat was in olive oil , I thought it was healthy etc.

Oh well back to salads and small portions of cottage pie etc.

Yeah I did but surely , if your eating fat , your gonna fat if you don't do anything?? I've lost a lot of weight over last 6 months by eating salads and genrally eating less crap. Now i'm just starting to work what foods are "non fattening" So was just wondering if thi was "non fattening"option
