      An eggcellent question. That's roughly 3 a day. I don't see a problem with it, unless that is all you are eating. As in the notorious egg fast diet.

      damn, my math was wrong. its actually 28 (4 every morning)

      It must not be because there was a time when I ate more than that and my numbers where all good.

      An egg is an almost perfect package of protein, and the yolk has fat soluble vitamins, too.

      Good article: https://examine.com/nutrition/are-eggs-healthy/

      Seems like a perfectly reasonable number of eggs to me, just a biggish omelette every day.

      But now OP is especially good at expectorating.

      Now we're getting into the nitty gritty. How does OP feel about literally covering the walls of his/her home with antlers?

      Just talking about you behind your back, in front of your face. Don't let the haterz get you down. (I threw up a little just typing that).

      Haven't seen you around in a while. When's your next AMA?

      28 - 30 eggs is a normal week for me. 60 this week and 120 the week before.

      There is a n=1 where a guy is reported as eating 30 a day for decades. Lived a long life I believe.

      Nothing better than a sunny side up egg with crispy edges.

      The only problem might be the saturated fat. Only you can determine if eating this much saturated fat is too much for you when put in context of other things you eat. Although the links between other fats and cardiac events has been disproven, saturated fats are still problematic. Each large egg has 2g of saturated fat so that's 8g to start the day. The American Heart Association recommends keeping saturated fat intake to 5% or 6% of daily calories. Only you can determine how the 72 (9x8) calories of saturated fat fits in with the rest of your diet.

      i legit dream of eggs so

      Love eggs but the whole egg can make a dent in the caloric budget. What I found is working best for me in the morning is one egg + 1/2 cup off egg whites (equivalent to 2 eggs). Along with some Greek/plain yogurt with frozen fruits and a sprinkle of All-bran this makes a very sustainable breakfast lasting up to lunch time.

      I found if I skipped the eggs in the morning, I will be hungry by 10am!
