Because I was so greedy for breakfast... I only have like 600 calories left to consume for the rest of the day. LOL. That maple bacon was pretty delicious though!!

    what did you have exactly...bacon is actually not all that calorie dense. Two eggs, a couple slices of bacon and a slice of buttered toast is generally in the neighborhood of 350 - 400 calories.
  • Well I had 4 slices of bacon and a bagel with cream cheese. Just not proper portion control. Less bacon with half a bagel would've helped!

    I think half a bagel, which would half the cream cheese used, would have been the route for me. That's only because there is nothing better than bacon to me. You could always go burn some calories and earn some more though?

    Um... I went out for both breakfast & lunch so even after a good run I only have 20 calories left in my "budget". Wah! I guess I need to burn some more. Sigh.
