Eggs per day

[cardiodan]

Hey whatsup guys?

Listen, Im eating 3eggs ED along with my diet.
When you do the math, that's 18 eggs every 6 days.

That's alot of cholesterol.
I had my diet checked with Nark, and while everything has been going great (although he did say the fat was a bit high) and I've been losing weight easily, I am wondering if this is overkill?

Other than this, I take 2 tbsp peanut butter
And 1tbsp fishoil/flaxoil

Cardio 6x/week @140bpm for 60mins (70%MHR)
3 of those 6 are weightlifting plus the 60mins cardio.

Im losing weight, theirs no question about it. Im looking much better
thanks to the plan Nark approved.

It's almost Week4! (Of Im sure around 20)
Too much cholesterol?

If it matters, I eat around 80g carbs from oatmeal. Those are my only carbs other than veggies.
1/2c oatmeal in 3 of my meals (450 cals, around 81gcarbs)
Theres a lot of fiber in there thats why im saying...I heard it helps lower cholesterol and what not.

If any1 has any medical knowledge please pitch in.

Since I know that you're very specific and strict when it comes to dieting, you could just try and take out the egg yolks and instead just eat like 4 egg whites a day and see if your results change or improve. Besides getting blood work to see if your cholesterol is high (Which I doubt) I would say that's the best way.
That's one of the luxuries of being consistent with your diet. It's easy to take something away or plug something in to see if it alters your results.

Bro, I eat 56 egg whites and 21 egg yokes a week. You dont need to worry about your cholesterol from the eggs. If your cholesteral levels are up its because of your carbs in conjunction with other poor fat choices.

Tossing out the yokes is not a good thing. The yokes are healthy and in conjunction with the whites, it makes a complete protein. As you know, complete proteins = more muscle.

[Rugger02]

I know it brings the bioavailability up to 100, but I still only eat 1 yolk per about 3 whites...

Been tossing the idea around of eating JUST whole eggs tho.

LOL Sorry to hijack...

[Jfew44]

The only thing I'm worried about when I eat eggs is the smell coming out of me later. You're fine bro. I like to stick with about half whole eggs and half whites.

[ray0414]

i eat a dozen eggs a day now, i probably keep about 2-3yolks a day. if u have a good diet with lots of monounsaturated fat your body gets rid of the bad cholesterol so you'll be good.

[richtries]

I´ve also been debating this . . . cos i always eat my eggs with toast have been tossing the yolks as read in one of the stickies not to eat fat with carbs. Any help?

[cardiodan]

LOL
I dont understand why when cutting every1 is so strict and bulking they "try to have some fun" and everyone is mixing and matching carbs and fats.
I have understood that that's a nono due to the insulin spike.
Why do it when bulking?

About the eggs, I know we exercise, I know we have fiber in our diet.
But I remember Dr.s talking to my parents when I was a kid about yolks.
They always seemed to condone moderation (I dont remember how much)

[FireGuy]

Get your levels checked by a Dr. Cholesterol levels have much more to do with genetics than diet.

[cardiodan]

True....someone that eats low fat 24/7 can have high cholesterol...true.

[redz]

I eat 35 egg whites and 14 whole eggs per week I dont think theres any problems with it.

[redz]

i cant eat that much food for my first meal, and eggs make me wanna throw up eating scrambled, i can eat them runny over ww toast but i try not to eat bread

[intensityfreak]

yea i love egg whites raw for my daily protien intake. i like to mix mine in with protien shake and make what i call a egg white shake. ill mixe 5 egg whites in with a bannanna and some milk and ice cream and im good to goo.

Quite like the sound of that . . . how much milk do you add and how much protein powder if any? Think it would taste alright without the ice cream . . . perhaps just ice.

[VeraDeMilo]

I wouldn't worry about the eggs at the amount you are taking in daily. I have 20 egg whites a day and my cholesterol is fine. But then again, I don't have the yolks.

[jackjackson]

I eat 42 egg whites and 7 whole eggs per week.
Some weeks i'll eat eggs before bed with 2 whole eggs.
How do i do it? I have an egg poacher that boils them for me and shuts off when done.

[Squatman51]

84 eggs/week

I do the same.
I grind up some steel cut oats in my magic bullet to a fine powder, throw in about 5egg whites (liquid,pasturised), one banana and some skim mik.
amazing!

completely agree man... eggs are killin me lol

[jackjackson]

there also the purest form of protein and cheap.
Eggs and tuna are the cheapest proteins

[Godson]

tuna is expensive if u ask me

[Godson]

how do you guys cook your eggs by the way, is it all the same or better ways to cook them like sunnyside up scrambled vs eggs over hard, any difference?

[BIG TEXAN]

hard boiled is my number one choice, than scrammbled or one hellacious omlette. I love poached but not when eating a dozen at a time...LOL

[jackjackson]

My egg poacher can boil or poach them, I prefer boiled.

[Voland]

hard boiled.

[NewJuice]

that's over 6 dozen of eggs

[Sir Lifts-a-lot]

When I was locked into a great diet I was eating 16 egg whites a day and 4 yolks.

Roughly 72 grams of egg protein a day....

Best food for lean muscle I feel.

[DSM4Life]

5 wholes eggs a day.

[smokethedays]

35-40 egg whites DAILY.

[cardiodan]

I dont know about u guys, but egg whites, while tasteless, f*cking delicious.
I put some SF Jam, just a little teaspoon, makes it better.

40 egg whites huh.
Do you buy them in cartons, or by the gallon?

[jackjackson]

In BB I learn to taste goes out the window
