Why only eat Egg whites?

[youngmakaveli]

In any case is there anything I might be missing besides a good source of protien here?

Could I just eat more fish (specifically albacore) instead?

If you're allergice to eggs, you might invest in a good protein powder to supplement for your protein (like zero carb Isopure), but real food is always better.

You might get some chicken breasts or tuna like you said, but chicken tastes better.

Oatmeal, yogurt and peanut butter also have decent amounts of protein if you dont have a strictly protein food.

So does anyone eat a certain ratio of egg yolks here? Like say, 5 eggwhites to one egg yolk?

I eat ALL whites..........get my fats from flax, peanut, olive oils and lean meats, by choice.............

I eat about 4 whole eggs and 2 egg whites for breakfast and later on in the day.

The yolk contains about HALF the protein in an egg, as well as all the vitamins and minerals. Sure it contains cholesterol and some saturated fat, but I make sure the rest of my diet if pretty clean to make up for it.

never knew there could be so much just for a simple thing as a egg

Frank Zane also swears by whole eggs. I remember reading an article by Lee Haney yrs ago where he called egg whites an incomplete protein. I'm no Zane or Haney, but I say a whole food is always better. The yolk does contain lecithin and other things that help emulsify the fat. For me, anyway, I always go w/ the whole egg, but i don't shovel them in like there's no tomorrow. In reasonable moderation, I think they're fine.
