Thanks! Very cool stuff!!!

SIDE NOTE! MG really grinds my gears. I tried to link to a FS thread over here in a PM and it changed the URL to MG. Super irritating. Ell well, spaces between www. and .com FTW.

Ed, I put a link in both of my build threads "to" here with .org and they work. I bet .net would work as well.

i like bacon. really i do.

currently i am on a mission to get back into the shape i was long ago, and so far it is working. i have converted 8+% bodyfat, lost close to 45 pounds, and yet i still eat bacon. it is that good.

could i do better not eating bacon? its possible, but i do not overdo it. would it make a real difference in my end goal? maybe by a couple of days or even a week, but whatever bacon is that good.

bacon rules.

I agree, don't sacrifice bacon! It's not worth it.

I've been on a low carb diet for about 8 months now, I eat LOTS of bacon and still keep the weight off. Gotta love Costco, 4lbs for $10.
