Why I Weighed Every Egg

I used to peel boiled eggs with the same care I used to count calories—slow, deliberate, hoping I’d finally get it right. I memorized the numbers: 72 calories, 6 grams of protein, 5 grams of fat. I told myself it was about health, but it was really about control. Some mornings, I’d stare at the egg in my hand, wondering if eating it meant I was winning or failing. I read every article, every expert take, hoping for permission to just eat without the guilt. Even now, I can’t unlearn the math. I wish I could remember what hunger felt like before I started measuring everything. #Health #Diet #FoodGuilt
