Hi!
I just started this group too and glad to see you joined us. You have been through alot and I admire your courage.

I know what you mean about eating a zillion pounds of bacon! I was doing that too. I found that buying the turkey bacon actually works as well for me -without all the fat. If you cook it slow it tastes good because its all brown and crispy.

I bought one of those George Foreman grills so the fat drips away as the meat cooks - so I feel like I'm getting meat without all the fat! GEEZ! I am amazed at how much fat drips away that used to be going into my blood stream...YIKES!!

Good luck.
