During my workout time, I turn off my pedometer to make sure I’m not over counting activity and this morning I forgot to turn it back on for my walk
I confess this is making me a LOt more anxious than it should
I used to like cheese on eggs when I could still eat it without stomach issues.
Ketchup and all the low sugar chili sauces work well too. They make eggs good and egg whites tolerable.
When I was dieting with PC two years ago, I’d use zero-calorie maple syrup on egg whites which at the time was awesome, but I recently tried that again and it tasted very differently than I remembered.
One other option, if you can have carbs, is to put a little bit of honey on the egg whites.
But yeah, I’m just gonna drink them from now on, lol

I use a lot of sugar free style BBQ sauces we have in the US as a bypass. I just tried this stuff on some raw broccoli and it was amazing.
Otherwise, the chili sauces you mention are money. Hot sauce is just cheat codes at one point. Don’t taste anything else but the heat, haha.
Confession: so this morning I woke up not feeling like making any food after having had a big ass BBQ party for the 15th of August last night. Basically, I woke up at 1pm and was like, “there’s no way I’m cooking breakfast AND lunch now.”
So I woke my gf up and we headed to a sushi restaurant.
The confession is that, while I’m sure I got more than enough carbs from that meal, my protein for the day is probably lagging. I love sushi, and I eat a ton, but they are smart enough to put very thin slices of fish and you end up eating 90% rice ultimately. So yeah, it kinda bothers me because that meal was supposed to make up for breakfast and lunch, but there’s no way I got 80 grams of protein, probably half than that if even that.
So back to the egg whites, I think I’ll have to do some catching up on the protein for today haha
I wish we had that. We are not very big on sauces in Italy, so it’s hard to find fancier stuff. I have only found honey mustard in a couple of places and it wasn’t sugar free. Hot sauce, never even seen it in real life.
We do have low sugar ketchup which is handy. The chili sauce, I had to get it on Myprotein and I recently ran out of the five bottles I had ordered; it’s just so good. I should probably learn to make my own so I save up on money.

G. Hughes makes great stuff. Love those sauces.
Also, after binging on his sauces I cannot go back to stuff like sweet baby ray’s. Tastes like pure sugar mixed with a little pepper. Yuck.

Those G. Hughes sauces are what got me through the dozen eggs a day for Building the Monolith, haha. Just a great product.
The ones I have read both pasteurized and “to be consumed after cooking.” Do they look safe to eat raw to you?
I am not the guy to talk to about safety, haha.

I was expecting that answer haha, I realize I didn’t phrase it very well.
I guess my question was more of a, do the pasteurized egg whites you find in your stores also read that you need to cook them before consumption (or the ones you mentioned you had already tried raw)?
I just looked at a carton I have in the fridge and it does not say that.
I just did some research and what it looks like is that, while there aren’t any big health risks associated with raw pasteurized egg whites, what might happen is you’d be getting less net protein per serving because albumin, when raw, is harder to digest.
I’m about to do my first double egg white shot. Wish me luck
Edit: not bad at all I must say
This was discussed in my log a while ago, but the bioavailability of the protein in eggs is reduced by nearly 50% when you drink them raw. The drinkable egg whites are different than that. I can’t think of any good reason to be drinking raw egg whites, especially given your past digestive issues with things.

It must be an “American between the ages of X and Y” thing, because I don’t think there is a man alive on this continent that didn’t slug down a bunch of raw eggs after watching the original Rocky.
But I could be wrong.

Ok… had to move in both boys into their respective colleges yesterday at a specific scheduled time frame.
It was turning into a complete cluster fuck starting out due in part of the poor planning between the two boys.
It got to the point my oldest son was stressing out and becoming a complete ass to everyone. Finally mama bear had enough and said and I quote…
" Knock it OFF! OR I will punch you square in the COCK SMOKER!!!"
GOD! I love my wife she can come up with real gems to quote especially whens shes pissed…LOL
Needless to say that reined him back in.

I totally did it, put them in drinks and just chugged them down, and it was 100% because of Rocky.

Confession:
My wife just brutalised me.
I’m getting change after a shower and she comes over and says to me:
“You’re getting bigger here (puts her hands on my traps). Its nice. It really suits you. Its a shame you’re still big here though (move her hands to my belly).” Turns - proverbially drops the mic and walks off.
I don’t know what to feel.

Nope. The only saving grace was she had left the room before I started to cry.
I joke. I didnt cry. I was too busy eating a peanut butter sandwich.

You missed the opportunity to show her where else was getting bigger.
