    I know people are joking with the yolks part,

    Erm, no, actually.

    Eat the whole frikkin egg, ffs.

    Exactly! It's no joke! Eat the yolk! Also the yolks contain that fats we need to fully absorb the protein in the whites. They go hand-in-hand. Yolks also contain high quality protein and essential vitamins and nutrients. The yolk also contains lutein and zeaxanthin, which help preserve good eyesight and prevent vision loss.

    Skipping the yolk is just skipping out on good nutrients. (But to each their own :smokin: )

    I've discovered the advantages of eating egg whites. I use 4 egg whites and I've been putting in salsa (total calories = 72). I'm getting kind of burned out on salsa so I've gone to a half-ounce of shredded cheese (total calories = 123). What do you put in your egg whites?

    i have 5 tbsp egg whites with red peppers and mushrooms, sometimes i will toss in some grated cheese. I also have 1 serving of oatmeal, too, though to fill me up more.

    Depending on how you want your eggs to come out, fat free cheese is scarier to me than egg yolks. Just sayin'.

    Care to explain why? I'm not knocking full fat cheese, I eat it often actually.

    http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2011/05/21/why-you-need-to-avoid-low-fat-milk-and-cheese.aspx


    I read this article and didn't see anything about fat free cheese that would've been scary. I seen where it's talking about raw and pastureized cheese and the benefits, but I never said full fat cheese was bad at all. I only use the fat free when I want it to fit in my macros, and as long as I'm melting it, it works..

    Three egg whites scrambled with 1/4 cup of oats and usual seasonings. Although I've been on a pizza topping seasoning lately lol. Great protein/carb combo.

    1 whole egg, 1-2 egg whites, lots of spinach and seasonings. I'll also add 1oz of cheese if it is a post-workout meal.
