    I think everyone should be able to determine their own definition of bacon. No judgement from me!

    Sorry, I'm out. Never really liked bacon. Not going to force myself to develop a taste for it now.

    1 slice of bacon yesterday for breakfast, and today I had a small square of Domino's thin crust bacon pizza.

    I'm kind of slacking off on the challenge, but fully intend to catch up tomorrow morning.

    One Week Bacon Challenge!

    I cannot take credit for this concept. It was inspired by one of my MFP friends who posted this thread:
    http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/984219-want-to-live-to-105-eat-more-bacon

    Here is the article referenced:
    http://www.delish.com/food/recalls-reviews/105-year-old-attributes-bacon-longevity

    I want all my MFP friends to live a long healthy life! Therefore I started this thread so that we can challenge ourselves to eat bacon every day for one week! Lets hold each other responsible and get a one week jump start on the path to a healthy 105 year (or longer) life.

    At least 15 of my MFP friends have already committed to joining the challenge. Do you have what it takes to join the bacon bandwagon?

    Day 1 of 7 will be Friday May 10th!

    I will come back and post my bacon consumption details in this thread every day for the next 7 days. Feel free to do the same!

    Its bacon time!

    I think that each one of us has their own dietary preferences, and so I think its better if you focus on yourself instead of what others are eating. kthxby

    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!
