Dealing with relatives
 

It certainly is a pain listening to all the naysayers, those "knee-jerk" reactions are so infuriating! I must admit I'm somewhat of a wimp in this area though--only my immediate family knows about my LC eating. I just don't want to deal with all of my well meaning relatives and friends, most of whom are quite overweight themselves. :rolleyes:

So, do you all let your relatives know about your eating habits?

Absolutely!
 

Anyone who asks, I've told them what I'm doing and I let the results speak for themselves. :thup:

Quite a few people at work have noticed my weight loss and ask how I've done it. Once I've explained some people do have a negative reaction and I just tell them that I feel the best I have in a long time, not getting tired in the afternoons like I used to and it's working. :)

What it comes down to for me is that it actually is working and everyone has there own opinion and if they haven't tried it and are negative to me I don't take much notice because they are basing their opinion on something they've heard but not actually experienced. I don't try to convert people I just let them know why it's good for me.

Good luck
:wave: :wave:

I don't think you have to announce to everyone how you are eating. Why should they care what you are eating. But if asked, then I would tell them that I was LCing.

Some people are just too nosy..especially relatives.

The results of your WOE will show and they will ask, what your doing to look so great! Just tell em!
