    I have read the using egg whites is healthier than full eggs and that egg
    whites make 'excellent omelettes' etc.
    However , when I try to cook an omelette using just egg whites I cannot
    get the consistency of a 'normal' omelette - a nice cylinder of shape
    cannot be obtained no matter what I do. It just looks like a white
    scrambled egg mess.
    Is there some technique I must use?
    Is it not possible to create a nice shaped cylindrical omelette using just
    egg whites?

    What do you do with the rest of the egg?

    I never have yolks left over. Too often I have whites left, like
    yesterday when I made French toast (it was my little boy's 6th b-day),
    and I feel kind bad about tossing the whites, but I didn't have time
    to make meringues.

    Yolks are very high in saturated fats. They should be tossed. I always
    toss the shells, why not the yolks? Because they taste too good! The
    whites are high in protein, and low in saturated fat. They are the most
    nutritious part.
