You don't really need to tell them anything. Just continue to wow them
with your weight loss success. :-)

When people tell me that eating low carb is "dangerous" and tell me I
shouldn't do it...I can honestly tell them that I've never been

healthier.
Even if I didn't have to do it for weight loss, knowing what I know

now, I
can't imagine ever going back.

Default what low carb has done for me

My subject sounds like a sales pitch doesn't it - lol...

I've had acne issues since I was 11, it's been a problem through pregnancy,
complete hysterectomy/menopause, all sorts of "diets"...until I went low
carb. All I have left are the scars.

I've had continuous problems with flatulence my entire adult life - not a
single peep since I went low carb.

My sedate lifestyle I *thought* was from a simple lack of interest in
anything active; now I have so much energy and am discovering what I've been
missing all this time.

I used to get up 3-4 times/night and sleep restlessly. My husband would
come home from work in the morning and the bed was a mess. Now I sleep
through the night, and often wake up in the same position I went to sleep
in. OK, so my old joints are a bit stiff as a result, but I'm sleeping so
much better!

Previously, eating Titrilac like candy and swallowing Zantacs was the only
way I got relief from reflux. Now...what's reflux? (I'd have thought that
the weight loss would eventually fix that anyway...little did I know that
the lack of carbs would resolve it before I'd even lost 10#!)

Previously, I'd feel bloated and stuffed after every meal, no matter whether
I had small portions or big. Now, I don't remember what it feels like to be
bloated and stuffed.

My mood swings used to be horrible, and fighting with bouts of depression
was a way of life. Within the first 2 weeks of low carb, I became myself
again, jolly, easy-going, fun, and funny.

When people tell me that eating low carb is "dangerous" and tell me I
shouldn't do it...I can honestly tell them that I've never been healthier.
Even if I didn't have to do it for weight loss, knowing what I know now, I
can't imagine ever going back.

HAHA, in my latest such encounter, I got a "I don't know why it's working so
well for you because it's so unhealthy" head shake and cluck of
disbelief...which kind of cracked me up .

Thanks, Thaffy. Although your weight info and photo link as part of a sig
should NEVER be considered a bad idea!
