Two eggs or a bagel?

Whenever I eat an egg or two at breakfast, I always know it'll be a healthy eating day. I'd eat eggs every morning, except I get tired of same 'ole, same 'ole.

In a recent study, researchers at the Pennington Biomedical Research Center examined the weight loss merits of eating two eggs at breakfast versus a bagel. Both foods are equal in calories and volume (that surprised me), but eggs have more protein. The egg-eaters lost 65 percent more weight, significantly slimmed their waists and enjoyed higher energy levels.

Keep in mind, participants were on a low-fat/reduced calorie diet, eating eggs five mornings a week for eight weeks. This certainly makes the case for cracking a couple eggs instead of slicing a bagel, but how many people would actually eat eggs five mornings a week?
