Well a cup is about 25 grams.
That's usually what I use.
Ocassionally I'll use two cups if I'm low on protein powder

Maybe I need to check my math. I figured up 8oz of whites was roughly 60 grams of protein. I wish they would just list the nutritional I go on them in ounces instead of tablespoons. Some of us are mathematically challenged.

I don't think the cholesterol and fat in a whole egg is as bad as we've been told. I did make a switch to turkey bacon with my eggs though. My wife's trainer told her no regular bacon, which essentially means no bacon for Chris either.

At times I eat 1 dozen whole eggs per day. After 2months of eating commercial eggs, my lol was high at 196. I switched to local free range chickens and had it checked 2 months later and it dropped to 136. What they are fed has a profound affect on their nutritional value, much like grass fed beef.

I have a flock of hens at home for eggs. Not sure if it's cheaper or not but I do like their eggs over regular commercial eggs

Love whole eggs. Fantastic protein profile too, very bioavailable. How good is that?
