I am so excited to be here, and to have found this place. My sister and I recently started MRC. We will go to out informative meeting this Friday. I haven't been this pumped about a diet in a long time. I am really ready to change my eating habits. I plan to start walking three times a week, I will also get weighed twice a week. I hope to write more tomorrow, I want to get to know you all better. I stayed up half the night reading everything on this site, now Ive gotta hit the sack.

We dont go in untill this Friday, But as of tomorrow, I am going to start recording everything that I eat, Oh! Quick question. One of the suggestions that was made for me for breakfast is to scramble three eggs sprinkle a little cheese on it, and wrap in a tortia. My sister says I should only use 1 yoke out of the three eggs due to cholesterol...any comments? Id like to have all three yokes If I could.....ok, now, back to what I was saying. I am also going to start walking a mile on Mon Wed & Fri. I am a little leary because I dont know how well that will go. My feet hurt alot. Oh well, I will do what I need to do. I am so totally pumped about this. The cool thing is that nobody knows that my sister and I are doing this. I have another question, How do I get my little weight goal thingy show up on my posts?
Ladies, we are going to look FABULOUS!!

I frequently make scrambled eggs and omelets with 1 whole egg and 2 egg whites. I generally don't miss the 'missing' yolks. For me, it's not so much about the cholesterol as the calories. A whole egg is about 75 calories, and about 55 of those in the yolk, if memory serves.

I would say you could go either way... yes there is a lot of fat and cholesterol in the yolk, but also protein. I would say it's a matter of choices and priorities.

But if you've never had it 2 whole eggs and 1 white, give it a try and see. You might not notice the missing yolk either!

Welcome! And good luck!

Hey welcome to 3FC. I'd like to invite you over to our positive thread. It's called "Positive Uplifting Notification Part 3: One Positive Thing About Me Today Is..." It's a great place to start your day by listing your positive things that happened to you that day and also a place for motivation and support. It's located here in the 300+ Club and we've got a great group of friends for you to make.

Hello from a 5'7" (former) 300+ pound Cornhusker.

I eat the yolks! Yokes are LOADED with 100% of the RDA in MANY nutrients as well as rich in omega 3 fatty acids (good fat) and minerals. (The whites do not contain 100% of ANY RDA of nutrients.) The calories vs. the great stuff in them is a much better choice compared to say a 100 calorie pack of junk food.
