Despite the summer season being long gone, many Brits are still determined to shed those extra pounds.
It’s no secret that weight loss and slimming journeys can be touch, regardless of diet or exercise regime. However, one man showed success is possible after he managed to lose 4lbs in just one week.
So what’s his secret? A consistent breakfast routine packed with protein and healthy fats. The TikTok user @ketorecipes, who boasts a following of 1.7 million, shared his tip with his audience.
He revealed: “I lost 4lbs last week eating pretty much this exact breakfast every day. It’s packed with protein and healthy fats so it keeps me full, super satisfied and it’s so good.”
In his viral recipe video, he starts with a base of cottage cheese, followed by medium boiled jammy eggs, cooked for eight and a half minutes.
He then adds slices of avocado and garnishes with coriander, red onion, chilli, lime, seasoning, and any preferred hot sauce. While the rest of the recipe details were provided in his post’s caption, the revelation this breakfast helped him lose 4lbs in a week has left viewers astounded.
The clip racked up 283,000 likes and 1,800 comments since its online debut. One viewer commented: “Eggs in the morning keep you full all day.” While another praised: “Jammy eggs are really good.”
Here’s the complete recipe:
1. Start by preparing your medium boiled eggs. Bring a pot of water to the boil, then add eggs straight from the fridge and cook for exactly 8 minutes and 25 seconds. If you prefer a harder egg, let it cook for a few seconds more. For a softer, jammy texture, aim for around 7.5 minutes.
2. Select your favourite bowl and layer in one serving of cottage cheese. If you’re not a fan of the curds, you can blend it until it’s smoother.
3. After removing your eggs from the ice bath, peel off the shell, cut into your preferred shape and place on top.
4. Slice half an avocado (approximately 65g) and add it to the bowl.
5. Now it’s time to add some low-calorie, flavour-packed extras. I enjoy fresh coriander, some red onion, and a generous helping of truffle hot sauce. Feel free to add whatever you fancy – cucumbers, tomatoes, or jalapeños would also work well.
6. Finish off with a sprinkle of Chile lime seasoning and everything bagel seasoning.
