Ladies, I've got a question about tracking bacon.

I'm just confused about how to track it when so much fat comes off.

The bacon I was using has, per 2 uncooked slices:

• 230 calories
• 22g fat
• 6g protein
• 1g carb

I made 5 slices. Uncooked, that is: 575 calories, 55g fat, 15g protein and 2.5g carbs. I measured off the fat after I cooked it, and it was 48g. So 48g of fat is 432 calories. If you take that off of the totals, you get:

• 143 calories
• 8.1g fat (73 calories)
• 15g protein (60 calories)
• 2.5g carbs (10 calories)

5 slices of bacon can't be 143 calories... I know they get small and crispy, but is that actually right? If it is, I've got an extra 48 grams of fat/432 calories to play around with...
