Hello There. I can understand your concern. you can eat how much you are eating until you work out and burn it out. cholesterol wont be a issue in people who are exercising daily. its a problem in people who have a bad eating habit and stay sedentary all the time. I would not recommend you to increase your egg intake, but you can definitely decrease 1 if you want. Consult a general physician in person for further evaluation and management. Best regards, Dr. Anil kumar jain. Bangalore.
