Egg White Q

[bran987]

So I am getting tired of regular Egg Whites.... So I have been adding a few mushrooms, green pepper and some onion to it and scrambling it up. Makes eating it SO much better and tasty.

Goals....trying to lose a little BF, drop the 10lbs I gained while being sick, get my muscles back

Are these few veggies going to make it tougher to meet my goals? I think no, since the amounts are so little and low carb. But looking for others opinions and thoughts.... Anyone?

how'd you manage to gain weight while sick? just wondering cos I always lose weight.

and no in fact the veggies will probably help ya

I make it with baby spinach and apple.

Sautee the baby spinach with some chopped up apples (fairly small) - drain and after you drop in the white wait a few and add the spianch and apple - then flip and mix.

Now that sounds different & interesting!! Does it taste sweet at all or more savory? I may have to try that....

veggies like the ones youre using are good... the only ones I would tend to limit would be corn, carrots, and other more carbohydrate dense veggies...

I was sick for about 5 weeks....couldn't workout. It wasn't a "normal" sickness (i.e., cold). I had serious sinus infection and double ear infection.

In fact, I rarely lose weight when sick. Maybe the first day or two (dehydration) but my body QUICKLY rebounds and holds onto everything when I am sick - I have some freaky survival mechanism or something. When I am fighting illness, I always gain weight....even when I can't eat.

Savoy - a bit sweet but sweet in the sense of not bitter

green veggies are going to be your best bet... anything close to 0 net carbs... i like using bell pepps and onions but they have a bit more fruc. than dark greens
