So I blame this on the bacon I ate for dinner last night. I was making dishes for a potluck at work (deviled eggs & green bean casserole) and there was some leftover bacon from the recipes. I decided it would be my dinner. I'm pretty sure the huge amount of sodium held onto water and I am seeing the effects this morning. I actually laughed when I read the scale, looks like a day you just wanna go back to bed. Oh well, MCT coffee this morning and water until dinner (potluck at work).
The potluck is 'fish fry' themed. I thought it would be best to bring a couple of things I can actually eat. Everything else will be battered and fried or loaded with sugar. I even had a coworker tell me it is rude to not eat what other people bring but I refuse to sacrifice myself for the sake of being polite. :)

Love the equanimity. And she's right! It is rude to be hot! #TSFH

Right thinking. Your co-worker doesn't sound very understanding of the situation and where your priorities are. Good luck.

Never know what these people's houses look like or how it was prepared. Someone brought in a dish full of cat hair and they blew it off saying the cat is always on the counter. So I haven't done a pot luck in years.

Whenever we have a Pot Luck and I see the assortment of foods..."no..no...no...yes..no...no...maybe...no...no". After a quick scan, I find something I can eat, if not...i'll just hang around and chat.

If you follow your co-worker's idea of what is rude, I suppose even if you were allergic to a food you should eat it anyway for the sake of politeness. People do get into some weird notions that rejecting food that someone else prepared is somehow rejecting THEM. You are right to stick to your plan!

You're a better man than I am, Mahjohn. I look for the cheesecake first thing. "I'll try anything once - maybe twice."

Bacon is a diet killer-diller, but oh so good.

Potluck, hmmm.........I am funny about eating dishes people prepared in their home kitchens. In fact, I am funny about eating food prepared in restaurants too. You should of told that co-worker that it's rude to be in someone's business. What nerve. The food is there to eat or not to eat.........you decide not them. Don't put crappy food into your system just to pacify them.

Engeland, I agree. I don't really care what other people say/think anyway. Kppgreen, keep doing what you know is right for you.

There is nothing wrong with eating bacon on a diet -- it's fat and protein. But yes, it is also sodium and, if you don't look for uncured bacon, also nitrates and nitrites in big supply. Consider this: Last week I was in the hospital for about 30 hours because of a kidney stone. The entire 30 hours, although I ate virtually nothing, I was on IV fluids. The next day I weighed myself: Up 8 pounds! It's taken almost a full week to dump that weight.

Perhaps I should've blamed the sodium, not the bacon. I eat bacon every time I eat breakfast, it is a staple in the house. But there does get to a point where it is too much sodium.

a lot of sodium in bacon, so you're not necessarily wrong...though...sometimes you have to make an exception for bacon ;p

Yep......too much is too much, sodium that is. The bloating, sodium overload and nitrates.....I'll pass on the bacon.

Why do people hate on Sodium, when Salt much like Fat is targeted for no good reason. Also Nitrates...eat bacon it's good.
