I bet you mean 9 per day and not 9 per meal. That would be like 315g of protein a day just in eggs if you eat 5 meals...

But I don't see a problem with basing your protein mostly on eggs. I like to add red meats or casein before bed for digestion reasons, but egg whites have all the aminos you need.

Not sure how you arrived at those numbers. Average egg white has 3-3.5 grams of protein. Even if he did 9 per meal x 5 that's only around 150 grams. I think you must have figured the yoke content in as well.

yeah i deyolk them and eat just the whites but seem to have better fat loss and weight loss when i stick to just chicken breast but i get sick of it egg whites are quick and easy and i can eat them in like 2 minutes but not sure if they had alittle fat also that could be putting me over my fat ammount for each meal
