I do eat yolks sometimes. It all depends on what part of the competitive season I'm in. When I'm getting more calories, I have some yolks. Fewer calories, I cut them out.

The yolk does have some protein in it (1-2g). It's also the main source of fats from an egg (which is the main reason I cut them out as my calories get lower - fat cals can add up pretty quickly).

A whole, large egg has:

6g Protein
5g Fat
0g Carb
71 Cals

The egg white has:

4g Protein
0g Fat
0g Carb
16 Cals
