    I am not forcing anyone to eat bacon. Diet and exercise should be fun not a chore. I like challenges such as this and thought others might as well!

    Does turkey bacon count? :P

    I see no reason why not! There are not any strict rules. Its meant to be a fun challenge!

    I totally took a bite of leftover bacon in the fridge on Saturday just to make sure I got some bacon in that day.

    Bacon is disgusting! I've never liked the taste of it. I'll pass on the challenge. :P

    Sunday: 3 slices of thick cut bacon for breakfast.

    Today: BLT with egg for breakfast, and there's bacon flavoring the bean soup I'm having for dinner.

    I went to Red Robin yesterday and this wasn't on the menu (glazed doughnut part). Is that only at certain locations?

    No it was not. I ordered the Bacon Cheeseburger to go and used my own glazed donut from a local bakery as my bun. Sadly most restaurants fail to offer donuts as buns. I really wish it was a more common option!

    Day 5 (Tuesday) consumption included another bacon cheeseburger with a donut bun

    Day 6 (Wednesday) consumption contained just 3 slices of fried bacon with breakfast

    I will try to consume a lot of bacon on the final day of the weekly challenge tomorrow. Thanks for the great recipe ideas everyone!
