Diet Hack: Egg Whites

[CAPSLOCK BANDIT]

Last week I literally nearly died eating tuna mixed with rice... I was so sick of that and chicken that I was gagging while trying to swallow the tuna... it got stuck in my throat and created the worst pain ever... I felt like I was having a heart attack.. I quickly drank water... but that just piled on top of the ball of chicken and rice stuck in my throat... I soon found myself dry heaving and hacking like a cat getting up a furball.... I started sweating and panicking.... so I closed my office door and hovered over my garbage can... expecting to puke or drop over dead soon.... next thing I know it broke free..... I was drenched in sweat.... my secretary came in and looked at me.... didn’t say a word and walked out

That's nutty bro, I've liquified what calories I can, I might actually start blending chicken breast, I heard people do that as well

True back when I worked in construction and needed 6000 calories a day to put on any weight I blended all my major meals

I thought Hollywood actors just said that in interviews as a joke lol

Dude, there’s not enough time in a typical work day break to get all those calories. I did it from Necessity. I’m sure it’s more efficient to eat as well.

I can't eat much due to restrictions of my body, there are some things like fruit for example you shouldn't blend because your saliva is needed to trigger a chemical reaction with the sugar.

I blend a lot of **** though

I don't think you should be blending s-h-i-t. There's a reason why the body pushes it out of us. Stick to the way nature intended it to be.

Eat whole foods. Kiwi, swiss chard, arugula, and red cabbage are great.

Balance the level of Omega 3s and Omega 6s in the body.

Probably where I'd have anyone start - don't eat anything that comes in a box.

Egg whites are okay.

Chicken breasts are king tho.

For someone my size, I'd need around 60 egg whites a day to maintain.

Instead the equivalent amount of 540 grams chicken breasts is so much easier.

Egg whites expand on heating.

Chicken breasts shrink on heating.

I don't know if I'd ever want to have processed egg white in a carton.

How do you do it man? I hate chicken breasts. I begrudgingly eat them. Lately been focusing more on fish and eggs for protein. I like goat too when the girlfriend prepares it.

Oh yeah fish and eggs are great. Don't get me wrong, I like eating everything in certain quantities. But the biggest chunk is chicken breasts.

Try using different seasonings, low fat sauces that @nicksaiz65 shared earlier, and different recipes. It can be fun!

 

[darksprezzatura]

I don't see why not... I was baking two cartons at a time in a glass baking pan then cutting 195gram slices which was about 25g protein.

Yeah thing is 195 gram slices containing 25g protein is way harder for me to eat as I'd need to have 1500g a day to keep up w my protein requirements.

I just eat protein every meal but damn this is nuts, inflation is hitting the wallet really bad for the last couple weeks, I'm spending 20% more on the exact same amount as before, also the substitutes have been necessary as the supply chain issues are mounting, not only is food more expensive but its going bad faster as well, sitting in the ports or wherever moving slower than usual.

Cage free organic eggs are the same price here in CT. Have you tried going to a wholesale club (BJs/Costco/Sam's Club). Paying around 3.29 a dozen, so not bad. I buy manager's special beef at around 4 bucks a lbs for grass fed organic beef. Just need to look around dude.

Our Costco is literally barren, people have been panic buying for a while now

That’s not even close to enough for a meal. At needing 3500 callries and 250g protein a day that would mean 10 meals. Very inefficient .

my biggest issue is getting enough food in the time I have while awake when eating clean

 

[SargeMaximus]

Two cartons would be 200 grams of protein. So one would be going through two and a half cartons a day for 250g of protein a day. Like I said earlier, I do about 50grams of protein from egg whites a day. Baking two cartons at once was 4 days worth for me. Though since I've learned that all the protein is utilized regardless of it being cooked or not, I'm going to just add them to shakes.

I don’t know how you process all that food. I get seriously stopped up if I eat too much

 

[SargeMaximus]

If you're eating 3500cals a day, that's more than I eat. At 3500, that's bulking calories for me. My maintenance is 3000. I just started my cut at 2511calories a day.

Yeah I’m trying to bulk. Ain’t really working

 

[SargeMaximus]

I know you don't want to hear it, but I'd bump up to 4000 calories a day.

I used to do 6000 when I was In construction but all that food kills my digestion like my body can’t process all that

 

[darksprezzatura]

Oh I see... I wasn't talking about it being your only protein source. For myself, I eat 50g of protein from egg whites, roughly 55g from tuna, 44g from whey isolate, 120g from chicken breast, and the rest from odds and ends. Totaling just under 300g protein a day.

300 grams seems like overkill, I'm guessing you weigh 180-220 at most. Are you enhanced? I've heard the body can only absorb about 10g/hr a day.
