Especially at the beginning with Induction, the loss is big and can be startling. For those who see you every day, the sudden change may be worrying. But now it will slow down and they'll get used to it.

But in general, people who lose that much on LC look better than people who lose it on low fat/low cal. You don't have nearly the "loose skin" look because all the water and fat keeps your cells 'plump' & glowing.

The posts above mention the 'jealous' reaction that many people get and it may be partially true here. People who haven't yet got themselves together to lose weight often resent and try to sabotage those who have - perhpas unconsciously.

Keep up the good work.
