I guess I don’t understand. Aren’t eggs and bacon considered protein?

[hoe_cake]

yes, but bacon is nothing BUT fat. My rule of thumb has been to eat what I wanted but only a small portion. I let my fat content get the best of me. And my carb intake is out of control, too, hence the sugar cravings.

a lot of bacon is sugar cured.

and even the bacon that is not, the browning action produces a sugar.

every morning, i eat 2 or 3 strips of turkey bacon along with 3 egg whites with 1 yoke on a weight watchers whole wheat pita.

don't eat regular bacon. maybe as a treat on sunday's.

i drink unsweetened vanilla almond milk. i blend some frozen fruit in to give it some flavor.

70-80% of fitness results is diet. seriously. eat well 6 days, and on the 7th day, eat what you want.

work out. i do it 6 days a week for an hour on average. more in the summer. just make it fun so you'll stick with it.
