Okay, are egg yolks ok to intake? I've been reading some things, and seems to me that some guys go low on this, is it because fat content or what?

Also, you guys wanted to know what my diet is.

I usally have 3-4 eggs for breakfest, this is at 6 am. Then later at 8 am, I intake another 30 grams of protein with a shake. Later at 10am, another 30 grams of protein with a shake. 12 pm or so, I eat some chiken, get about40-60 grams of protein. Around 3 pm, I eat more chiken, but also usally eat a few spoonfulls of penut butter. So about 60 grams of protein. I work out around 4-5 or so, then after I work out, I intake 30 grams of protein in a shake. Then wait a few hours till about 7 pm, and eat another 40 grams of protein in chiken. This is just for now...this last week I was'nt able to intake this much protein because I was'nt able to.

i always eat the yolk. IMO the egg isn't worth eating unless you eat the yolk... thats where the majority of the nutritional content is.

Every morning I have one or two egg yolks and 6 additional egg whites with my omelet. As sdf42450 said, the yolks have a lot of nutrients in them and they also provide some healthy fats.

	Chuck Norris's Sig:"Chuck Norris's girlfriend once asked him how much wood a woodchuck could chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood. He then shouted, "HOW DARE YOU RHYME IN THE PRESENCE OF CHUCK NORRIS!" and ripped out her throat. Holding his girlfriend's bloody throat in his hand he bellowed, "Don't fuck with Chuck!" Two years and five months later he realized the irony of this statement and laughed so hard that anyone within a hundred mile radius of the blast went deaf"
