It drives me nuts to see my wife making her egg sandwich by stripping the yolk out. I tell her she's throwing away most of the egg's nutrition.


Also, is anyone else trying the intermittent fasting thing that's so popular now(mentioned earlier)? I've never made any other adjustment in my fitness plan that has produced more muscle gain and fat loss at the same time. Finally seeing my abs after having them under a layer of fat for 10 years.
Whole eggs are full of good and healthy fats and cholesterol needed for healthy hormone functions. Depending on how her diet is she may or may not need these additional nutrients. Instead of wasting 1/2 the eggs you buy just buy egg whites in the carton.
