I like that strategy! I've been doing cold brew coffee anyway instead of my French press just because it's so much quicker in the mornings (and seemingly, a lot more caffeinated). Liquid egg whites would be an easy add.hector wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2024 4:11 pm I have never been able to tolerate the protein shakes. They always fuck with my digestion.
Recently I started doing liquid egg whites from Costco. Per gram of protein they are not expensive. I have a huge iced coffee in the morning. I do 1/4 black iced coffee, 1/2 liquid egg whites, then 1/4 or less whole milk.
The egg whites have almost no taste. Easy mix with coffee.
Of note, they’re cheap at Costco, but not as cheap at a regular grocery store. Definitely go to a warehouse club type store to buy them if you decide to go hard.
Between the egg whites and a microwaved chicken patty it is easy to hit 50g protein. And only 2-3 minutes prep time.
I live in cow country, so the nearest Costco is a 2 hour drive. I do have a friend with a membership, so maybe I could stock up next time we go to the city.
I could also adopt the strategy that many of the lifters I know here use, and slonk raw farm eggs in the morning. I've tried but find the experience rather unpleasant. I am a citydweller at heart.
