I eat bacon a few times a week. I'm pretty tight now (restriction)and don't have issues if I chew it up properly.

There isn't anything you can't eat, however, whether or not it's a wise food choice is another matter completely.

I think you'd have to figure out how many calories and how much fat is in it. You may also want to consider it's sodium content too. If after doing this you decide you still want it, just be sure you work it into your daily calorie allowance.

Best wishes

I have trouble chewing bacon and pork. I don't eat ham, though. the only pork I eat are spareribs from one Chinese restaurant because they have the world's best!

Try and see if they agree. I am from Boston and we are famous for lobster, I can only chew the claws now. Everyone is different. Enjoy the bacon.

Why not? BK and Denny's have bacon I've cream sundaes! I also eat bacon...almost every day. Breakfast is my most substantial meal. I find as the day goes in the less hungry I get. Also since surgery I love everything salty versus the sweets like I used to. However I don't have a fill so it doesn't affect me at all. But I darn well make sure I count those calories! :-)

Perhaps attempting turkey bacon would be a good option. I know it's not the same but this way it doesn't kill the calorie count for the day. Just a thought.

I myself love bacon, I crave more salty stuff verses the sweets too. I cook a whole package when cool put in a zip lick bag and snack away. Since I have a hard time eating meats I dont feel bad for snacking on this. I had my band done March 2011 and ive lost 109 pounds....hoping for skin surgery soon

I love center cut bacon but have sworn off of it. Too much fat and sodium for someone who is trying to be healthy. But I make plenty of other mistakes so maybe i should eat some after all. :D

I make it in the microwave (I suck at trying to make it in a skillet :)) and it's always crispy and easy to eat. But I eat the turkey bacon, love it!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
