    By boss, I think she means her bf/husband...

    @singingflutelady bacon is cured, not processed.

    @traceyidundun I cook my bacon in the microwave in between layers of paper towels. Takes approximately half the fat and calories out. I also buy jimmy dean turkey sausage links at Costco of BJs. When healthy choice stopped making theirs it took me years to find another that tasted good. 3 links for 99 calories. Delicious. I eat either bacon/sausage every day with breakfast. Hasn't caused me not to lose. 6 months down 57 pounds.

    Curing is a type of processing, so is butchering and cooking to get technical ;)

    If you (can) only eat 2 slices of bacon 2x every week or so, I think you're still eating clean. Field Roast has breakfast link sausages with maple which are amazing, and meatless.
    Have you ever considered cooking with bacon? I add couple of slices fried up and then chopped as a garnish to soups, stews and pasta gives you the taste but you aren't eating much of it and the Boss may be sated.

    You have a point. I keep chickens and I do, in fact, use the term "processing" for the act of killing, plucking, and gutting - but mostly because it's shorter to say and doesn't make people squeamish right before dinner.

    That depends on one's perspective. Probably best to let the OP lead her own life.

    Sorry, you're right.

    ETA: I did mean in comparison to calling Aunt Flow The Boss. Cuz that's just funny.

    @JustMissTracy Just started logging in 5 days now. Started at 72kg looking to loose 20kg. I decide to do weigh ins every 2 weeks so looking forward.

    Get a food scale and weigh foods in grams (don't use cups and spoons). Log everything you eat/drink (unless it truly is 0 calories).

    You can eat what you like to lose weight as calories are king.

    If boss does mean period, I don't let that *kitten* dictate my life. A little chocolate is all it takes to shut her up.
