How many eggs = a meal? page

[JamieRose]

Like many here, I usually eat eggs for breakfast. I generally fry three and add some veggies. This works pretty well for me, and I've been doing it for awhile... but the other day, someone I live with saw me cooking and said, "Wow. Three eggs? That's a LOT."


So basically I feel like I'm some kind of pig now. Is three a lot for a meal if that's all I'm eating? I didn't think so... this coming from someone who chows down on ice cream and chocolate most nights... ugh.


How many eggs do you consider a meal?

4 for me.

2-3 for me, if i only do 2 then i use 1/4c liquid egg whites to bulk it up a little

4 for me, also. 3 eggs simply don't quite "do it for me."

3 eggs aren't all that many, some days I will make a 6 egg omelete. Normally I consume on the order of a dozen a day, it is a cheap source of protein and fat for a college kid stuck on a meal plan.

Hmm. If I do breakfast, I tend to have two.


Lunch or dinner omelette-type thing is normally 3, occasionally 4, and that's with onions and other things mixed in.


Enjoy your arterycloggingsaturatedfatty eggs ;D


Some days I end up having half a dozen - 2 for breakfast, 4 in an omelette. It's rare, but hasn't killed me yet!

I have five to six eggs a day.

I usually do 2 for me. Husband does 3-4 depending on how hungry he is.

Id rather die on eggs than some silly processed crap. Back when I was bulking on the anabolic diet.I had a 4 egg scrambled egg serving with 6 slices of streaky bacon, cooked in butter and with coffe and whipping cream.


Todays my first primal day and I had a hearty 3 eggs, but today wasn't a lifting day so it did me ok for most of the morning!

I usually eat 4 if I'm eating just eggs, and 3 if I'm adding in bacon/ham/cheese.
