    I eat eggs pretty much every day. If you're worried about dietary cholesterol, don't be...the FDA is in process of eliminating dietary cholesterol as a concern on nutritional labels due to the fact that it isn't a concern...dietary cholesterol has little to no bearing on blood serum levels. Beyond that, the yolks are packed with nutrition...no biggie to bulk up your portions with some egg whites, but don't skip the yolks...that's where the actual nutrition is.

    The bolded section is true for the majority, but not for all. If you are eating a lot of eggs it would be wise to have regular lipid screenings to make sure you are not one of the minority for whom dietary cholesterol has a significant affect on blood cholesterol.

    I've eaten 2 eggs for breakfast every day for almost a year. You're fine.

    I LOVE eggs! Over medium, scrambled, hard boiled you name it! I always start my day with a hot breakfast. I alternate with either oatmeal with ground flax seed and blueberries in it with milk little salt and half tbsp. butter. Or I will have eggs and toast. Been having a hot breakfast like that for decades! And I don't have high cholesterol or high blood pressure. :smiley:

    I noticed when I was checking my blood sugar that an egg in the morning, that terrific shot of protein, kept my blood sugars super stable all day. Eggs are great.

    Absolutely. Eat them every day if you wish. As long as they don't cause you to go over your calories, you'll lose weight.

    Ah! I had this very conversation with my diet class leader 20 years ago! Her answer was, don't worry about the eggs, but I bet you never questioned the cholesterol in a mars bar!! Food for thought lol!
