Eggs?

No clue... I eat three eggs almost every morning... whole eggs, yolk and all... with cheese!

me too.

all depends on your macros and where you prefer the fat coming from. i went for a long time doing egg whites with 1 yolk. now i have more calories to work with so i've been yolking it and cheesing it up.

I eat 2 eggs every morning yolks and all. It keeps me full until lunch and its only 140 calories. Here's an article I found via

I'll copy and paste the article here:
<b>Will Eating Two Eggs a Day Raise My Cholesterol?</b>
By Dr. Katz
O, The Oprah Magazine | From the May 2008 issue of O, The Oprah Magazine


Q: At least four times a week, I have two eggs with a piece of toast for breakfast. I find that it satisfies my hunger better than any other breakfast and gets me through to lunch. My cholesterol is normal, so am I okay with this approach?—Denielle Backstrom, Colorado Springs

A: I'm not surprised that you find this meal so satisfying. Eggs are a great source of high-quality protein, and the evidence is strong that protein is more filling than carbohydrates or fat. You don't have to worry too much about your heart: Numerous studies show that cholesterol from food sources has little effect on levels in your blood. (It's the saturated and trans fat in food that raises your cholesterol.) Since our early ancestors ate a diet rich in cholesterol from organ meats, eggs, shellfish, and bone marrow, it makes sense that our bodies would have evolved to safely digest high levels.

A number of studies suggest that about one egg a day has no adverse effect on health outcomes. A study in my lab found that eating two eggs daily for six weeks also had no harmful effects in healthy adults, and we are even seeing similar results in people with high cholesterol. But it's unclear what the risk might be over a period of years.

What's certain is that eating only an egg breakfast deprives you of the opportunity to get more whole grains into your diet. Having whole wheat toast with your eggs helps, but breakfast cereals rich in whole grains—with a minimum of added sugar or salt (my favorites include Nature's Path and Kashi)—will also satisfy your hunger while giving you a bigger dose of fiber.

Consider adjusting your regimen so that you average no more than an egg a day, which will make room for whole grains.

I usually just eat 2 or 3 whites, and then I eat normal cheese. I tried it the other way around with 1 white, 1 full and low calorie cheese . . . that *kitten* is more plastic than velveeta.

Scrambled eggs with regular cheddar cheese wrapped in a high fiber tortilla... best of ALL worlds.... as long as there is coffee too. :bigsmile: AND it's easy to take on the road if you're running late.

I don't eat yolks because they are gross. They taste like the inside of a chicken's ovary.

Don't judge me either, lady.

I heart eggs.. and pretty much eat them 7 days a week for breakfast with either bacon, hash browns, fruit, toast, or half a ham steak.

I'd rather cut things else where, then not eat my fried egg.

Me too Me too!!!

I have found that when I eat 1 egg fried and toast and bacon, it's like 240 calories and I am not hungry till lunch. I feel good all day and don't get that run down feeling!!

I love to make a breakfast burrito a couple of times a week using two whole eggs, half a cup of cheese, and some salsa. Normally I wouldn't if I were dieting, but with all the calories I'm burning from working out, I have a lot more room for calories. It's a filling and nutritional breakfast that keeps me energized until lunch.

Some people don't like to eat the fats.
I always just use 2-3 egg whites, personally, when they are scrambled.
If I am cooking them whole i leave the yolk.

For me it's the Fat, Cholesterol and Calories.
