In 1979, she purged 20 pounds with the help of 56 eggs!<br \/>\n<strong>The 20 Pound Plan!<\/strong><br \/>\nThatcher&#8217;s CRASH Plan included spinach, grapefruit, steak for dinner, black coffee, tea and, every so often &#8211; for good measure &#8211; a shot of whisky (taken with meat &#8211; otherwise not!).<br \/>\nHowever, it is believed that it was the one or two eggs for breakfast, coupled with a couple more at lunch time that did the trick!<br \/>\n<strong>Would you down 28 eggs a week, for two weeks? Hang the health?<\/strong><br \/>\nResearch shows that not all nutritionists, dieticians, and weight loss gurus are in agreement that eggs have a direct connection to high blood cholesterol.   Some studies call the &#8216;egg&#8217; the perfect protein.  Eggs are high in vitamin B12, provide nearly a third of our daily Vitamin D requirement, and they are high in minerals.<br \/>\n<strong>Weigh-In!<\/strong><br \/>\nNevertheless, would you down 28 a week?  56 eggs in two weeks?
