I eat a ton of egg whites, sometimes up to ten a day. Is that unhealthy or dangerous in any way? I love the way they taste, and they have a lot of protein... I don't eat the yolk.

    You will be fine. I eat about 6 a day but throw in 2 yolks with it. The fat is good.

    I have in general 3 whole eggs a day, separating the whites is too much work other than for a meringue and I refuse to eat my eggs from a carton...

    Egg whites are completely fine. I once met a woman leaving the local farmers market with about 12 dozen eggs. Asked her what she was using them for....answer....weight loss. They are high in protein, low in calories and have no cholesterol that is found in the yoke. I buy the bags of already hard boiled (HB) eggs from Trader Joes and Egglands Best. I put the whites in my salads at lunch time and my husband uses them for a quick breakfast on his rigorous daily work commute. On weekend I either make or get at the diner a egg white veggie omelet. I can eat that at 9 or even 10 AM and then I'm not hungry until dinner time. Good Luck with your journey to your goal!
