Default 2 Egg whites???

I've seen people posting about 2 freebie egg whites, would that apply to a person in their first week too? Does "freebie" mean I can eat this and stick to my current plan without any consequences?

gordito,

Some coaches say "yes" and some say "no", but it seems the majority say it perfectly fine

The Phase 1 sheet has a line at the bottom that says extras need to be "0-carb / 0-fat / 0-sugar". 2 egg whites add ~32 calories, all from ~8g protein, which is why many coaches allow it as an extra. Plus it opens up a lot of recipes using the packets (waffles, muffins, pancakes, cupcakes, bread, etc.). Always run it by your own coach and log it in your food journal, but it's a good way to get some more protein in your day.
