It has finally happened ~ I have given up the post run bacon and egg sarnie! What a wrench; no bacon fat dribbling down my chin; no ozzy egg from my girls in the garden; no sticky fingers...and hopefully, no fat round my waist.
I shall miss you; I shall miss you all...except my girth.
Oh man, talk about a sacrifice. That's a tough one, Sally!
A tough but sensible choice. I love a bacon and egg sarnie but to have one after every run would feel a tad self-defeating.
are you crazy? Could you just have half instead rather than go the full cold turkey?
Nothing wrong with fat you know. Just ditch the bread!
That has just made me very hungry!! You just can't get bacon like home here!! A little time away will make you appreciate even more (if possible)!!
Best ever bacon and egg sarnie was in Yorkshire. We did Whernside [an unenjoyable slog] and came down to the 'T' van and sank our gnashers into a truly delicious sarnie all washed down with a large mug of tea. Didn't even take our sack off first. Yummy in the extreme.
I usually make myself a rosti rather than bread to go with it but I have (veggie) bacon and fried egg for breakfast a lot of the time... before running. Lower calorie than chia seeds, almond milk, ginger and banana...
I still eat bacon and egg sarnis. Grilled of course, and the egg done in a hot pan with a squirt of frylite. Nothing wrong with it at all in my book. I only generally eat one though if I have a good week on the scales. It's my reward. I don't butter the bread!
I'm afraid I am naughty...white bread, fried egg (veg fat though) and real butter. I shall change my habits and go for eggs and bake instead...
I mostly good the rest of the time...mostly.
Stay strong during this tough time #pray4sally 
A major re-think has been forced on me...ditch the bread and go for eggs and bake instead...does that mean I can have twice as much bacon???
Just ditch the bread... you can still have bacon and eggs 
Apparently - and I do underline the "apparenlty - is not the real fat in foods that turns into fat around the waist (within limits I presume!)
Cooo. I shall go for good old egg and bake then. Brown sauce and the occasional sarnie...just for old times sake, you understand!
I like a Spanish omelette, which is baked eggs with all sorts of fab ingredients, including bacon☺
Now, there's an idea. Not had one of those for many-a-year. Thanks.
I have just read this post ( and all of the replies ) and I am now totally craving eggs & bacon ....
You can't give it up totally! Dry fry on a high quality pan and save the 'classic' (Inc butter and white bread) for special occasions.
It's a real tear-jerker isn't it? I shall keep buying my local butcher's bacon [wonderful chap who has just had a second hip replacement, and I couldn't be the one who is responsible for putting him out of business] and eating it. Grilling the bacon and dry-frying or veg fat frying.
On its own, no bread and maybe, just maybe a steaming hot mug of tea...Earl Grey, of course!!
Just when you thought it was safe 
Farewell 2017 my old friend!! 
Nearly End of the programme 
Wk5R3 done it!
