My over easy eggs. I make ‘em without flipping – I use the cover-and-steam method to cook their tops. The dark specks are bits from the herbed butter that I like. Added black pepper, salt, and Cholula Green Pepper hot sauce before eating.




Serious about crackers

Wife made me go to a nutrition class after I had a massive heart attack last year.... yep, eggs are okay in moderation....

I have tried to cut back on them... as well as cheese*... and I have actually eliminated bacon and fries....

*Still waiting to get an appointment with my lawyer to discuss suing Cabet Cheese... I was doing about 2lbs a week of their Seriously Sharp before I had the big one....

What's the definition of "moderation" though. I've been cutting back on carbs (no more oatmeal), so I switched to eggs. I usually have 4 eggs per day for breakfast. No bacon, sausage or toast on the side, just 4 eggs. I was talking with my mom the other day, and she was like there's no way > 25 eggs per week is good for you.

I have my yearly physical this month, I plan on talking with my doc about it.

Eliminating bacon doesn't make you live longer, it just feels like it.

I do the exact thing everyday that you do. 4 eggs but I do have a slice of toast with them. 7 days a week. My cholesterol numbers have improved dramatically. My doctor is really pleased with the numbers as am I.

Eggs are one of the most nutritious foods one can eat. Eat as many as you want.

Cooking your eggs in butter or bacon grease every morning might be an issue though.

It would seem boiling them would be the best method then. I guess??

I too have added eggs back into my diet (I soft cook them in an Instant Pot). The prevailing theory is that dietary cholesterol has no influence on serum cholesterol. As stated, just don't overdo it.

Given time, everything will be found to be bad for you. Given a bit more time, then it won't be. Life is short. Eat, drink, and enjoy whatever you want while employing a modicum of common sense. I'll take mine over easy.

Man, right after college I was into working out all the time. I did that for a while. It was about all I could do from gagging. I switched to whey protein shakes, much easier to swallow!

Per the article...
What about eggs?

Most people don’t need to worry about eggs and cholesterol. Eggs are very nutritious. They contain good quality protein, lots of vitamins and minerals, and healthier polyunsaturated fat. The dietary cholesterol in eggs has only a small effect on blood LDL cholesterol, so you can enjoy up to six eggs each week as part of a healthy balanced diet.

6 eggs ought to get me through Monday and part way through Tuesday!

There is very little that makes me gag just "thinking about it". But that's one of 'em. Uggggghh...
