I want to make myself a healthy snack - just eating some hard boiled eggs. Without eating the yolk (I hate that part), and only eating the egg white, how many calories and fat grams would you say are in it?

The white of a large egg, or about 1-1/4 ounces, has 16 calories, 3 g of protein, 2 mg of calcium, 4 mg of phosphorus, 55 mg of sodium, 45 mg of potassium, the weensiest little bit of riboflavin, and no fat, cholesterol, or carbohydrates.

Hiya quincy-JAMD-BGBB ( I luv u guys)! If nothing else is added, then the egg would hold the same calorie content no matter how it is prepared. If I may suggest, that you use Egg Substitute instead of whole egg. They have come a long way from the day of being just egg whites in a carton. Here is the difference between the two: Whole Egg: 80 calories - 240mg of cholesterol - Egg Substitute: 30 calories - No cholesterol Now that a big difference, and with the substitute I make scrambled eggs, I'll add a smidgen of margarine in the pan with about 2 tablespoons of chopped onion and let it saute until onions are translucent add the egg substitute to the pan and sprinkle about a tablespoon of finely shredded cheese to it, and scramble together for some great low cal eggs. Though the calorie count goes up to about 44 calories, and the cholesterol level rises to 1mg, it is still a far better item to consume then regular eggs. I hope this has helped you, good luck with the diet and best wishes.
