How many eggs per day do you eat?

maybe 10 a week, 3 or 4 per meal when i have them.

20+ large(whole) outside free roaming, free range eggs/wk. Fabulous little nutrition bombs they be

could you egg-splain this? LOL

It's a play on the lines of the Gaston song from Beauty and the Beast, just a bit of geeky humor.

When I was a lad, I ate four dozen eggs
Every morning to help me get large
And now that I'm grown, I eat five dozen eggs
So I'm roughly the size of a barge

I eat eggs everyday either 4 whites or 1 whole egg with 2 whites depending on my calories I wanna use for the morning,they're not my fave food but easy,cheap and a nice vehicle for ham and cheese🤤

3 daily, cooked over hard with butter. That's a good start to the day for me food-wise.

I eat about 6-8 eggs a week. About 3 days a week I have 2 scrambled eggs, and about once a week I use 2 more eggs to make an omelette.

Just started keto again and eating 3 to 4 eggs per day, from the farmer.

Maybe a dozen a week now personally. I tried the 36 raw eggs a day oldschool strongman thing. But it wasn't happening. 10 in one day was rough enough.

12-15 eggs a week! My whole family eats tonnes of eggs each week. I love sunny side up eggs with salt and semi dried basil. So yum. But I also eat scrambled eggs with spinach, red onions and tomatoes.

3 or 4 hard boiled eggs a day. I do them in the Instant Pot. 4 minutes pressure cook and let them sit for 25 minutes and they are nicely done. I make a dozen at a time. Nice and easy and I rarely buy lunch of breakfast at work any more. Got a full panel of blood work coming up in December so I will see if I can keep this up.

Huh, curious about your results, @Dontkillbill , can you maybe post an update here? Last year i eat 7-8 eggs a week and my cholesterol went up. There's no other reason that i can pin point for it, food wise or anything else. I exercise and my diet didn't change in any other way. My doctor said something in line of how cholesterol is a bit finicky and can change depending on something you have eaten recently, like shrimp, but i eat pretty much similar way, and the only high cholesterol food in my diet is eggs. So, although they say cholesterol from food doesn't affect your blood cholesterol, idk. I think it does. I love eggs and limiting the weekly amount to 3 or so. So jealous of people eating 2-3 a day! But i want to see if limited amount of eggs will lower my cholesterol back to normal, lower levels.

I will update when I get my blood work done. I am little scared because I am doing well on Keto but eat too many sausages and maybe too many eggs. It sure works keeping the hunger down. It really works on blood sugar.

I eat about 15 egg whites a day. Some days I change it up and have a different protein source though.

I eat 3 eggs whites a day. For argument sakes, let's say the cholesterol in the eggs does affect a person's cholesterol. Isn't most of the cholesterol in the yolks?

I also pack 4 hard-boiled eggs a day in the lunchbox and eat them for snacks. Whether I eat the yolk depends on how many calories I've eaten otherwise... most of the time I eat one or two and feed the rest to stray cats. The girlfriend and I are going through 3 to 4 dozen eggs a week.

I have 2 per day weekdays, 3 at weekends. I have done this for a good few years and at a health check last week my reading was 3.9 with ratio of 2.3 whatever that means. Doc said I was green and she’d not seen much lower (I’m 50)

That said other things in my life might help as well but eggs in themselves don’t worry me
