Yeah! I love egg-white omeltes, I eat a huge one daily. Try egg beaters or egg starts. Egg starts has different varieties of "pre-mixed" omelets with veggies already in them, they're super easy to make (all you need is a bowl and a microwave). They're about to release a ham and cheese verjin if they havn't already, with just five more calories per serving. And to make omelets even better, try having them with sugar-free maple-flavored syrup (I LOVE Mrs. Butterworth's SF syrup. It's has to most similar texture to regular syrup). I also enjoy them with different fillings like spinache (like a quiche), salmon, cloves, and cottage cheese. Adding one chopped black or green olive does a lot as well, it adds nice little olivy-bites throughout the eggs.
And about the carrot comment: The nutrients in carrots outweighs those few little carbs. And if you've eaten enough high-cal foods to become overweight, a carrot is nothing to fear. Stick it next to brocolli, and it may seem sugary. Stick it next to say, a snickers bar, and suddenly not so much.
