View Full Version : How many eggs kdhwtbtwbd Tue, January 25th, 2005, 09:50 PM How many eggs can one eat a day without having 'too many?' 90% of the time I just eat the whites, with the occasional egg thrown in. EG. 5 whites + 1 yolk for a omelette. I could easily eat 12 eggs a day (say 10-11 whites and 1-2 yolk.) Is this too much? Sholezard Tue, January 25th, 2005, 11:30 PM How many eggs can one eat a day without having 'too many?' 90% of the time I just eat the whites, with the occasional egg thrown in. EG. 5 whites + 1 yolk for a omelette. I could easily eat 12 eggs a day (say 10-11 whites and 1-2 yolk.) Is this too much? I usually eat 1 egg + 50 mL egg whites EVERYDAY! I eat this omlette style with a huge heap of veggies, including a bit of spinach, onions, green and red bell peppers, mushrooms, and tomatoes. I also add half a teaspoon of curry paste and then nuke it all in the microwave for about 2 minutes...AMAZING! :drool: Trust me when I say nothing bad will happen to you if you eat this way everyday, but 12 eggs a day...hmmm...I can't say the same thing with that much. P.S. What I described to you above is my Protein/Fat Meal after fasted-state cardio every morning. You need fat in your diet, even if it comes from eggs. don_1987 Wed, January 26th, 2005, 01:09 AM Ok, so let's me change the question, how much "whole eggs" you can eat daily for a safe dosage and still able to lose fat optimally? yogro Wed, January 26th, 2005, 04:56 AM dont mean to hijack this thread but also besides normal eggs wat about how many egg whites are ok for daily consumtion Strapped Wed, January 26th, 2005, 05:09 AM The number varies based on how your macro percentages are sorted out. Some people have 4, some people have 10. I used to eat 8 whites + 2 Wholes every morning for bfast. Now I'm eating 8 whites and adding a different type of fat. doordude42 Sat, August 20th, 2005, 06:39 PM 12 egg whites and oatmeal for breakfast daily. As soon as I begin my bulk i'll up it to 18. I also eat several throughout the day. pmh Sat, August 20th, 2005, 06:48 PM I'm currently eating about 8 whites and 4 yolks a day, this is part of my 2000 cal diet. Lately I am aiming for more days of 2200 - 2400 cals a day and I am still losing bodyfat. In the past I have eaten 24 eggs (12 yolks, 24 whites) a day and I'm still around to tell the tale so I wouldn't worry too much. The late and great Vince Gironda was a huge egg fan. BkRich Sun, August 21st, 2005, 12:05 PM I eat 18 to 24 whites a day. I only eat whole eggs late in the day if I need the extra calories to hit my daily total. |
