 Hi Heather!
Welcome to this WOE......Don't let others dissuade you! They just don't know anything about this woe! I had the same problem when I did Atkins in the 70's.....after my kids were born!...My mother-in-law was the worst!  She even said I was rude not to eat everything that was offered! Well, needless to say, I lost the 50 + lbs I wanted to.....But to this day, she says its unhealthy...Even though this time around I shared with her my blood tests and how I cut down my cholesterol (198-153) and tryglycerides (236-91) in 2 months doing Atkins!...Don't know what it will take to convince her...but, I know I've researched this a heck of a lot more than her......and, I'm going to keep with it. You can't worry about others......they are not you! If it works for you and you feel better.......then ignore what they have to say..this WOE has helped thousands of people...Just be strong...PROVE them wrong!  If they start picking on you, come here to the forum, where you'll get loads of support!
What is Fatwars? Never heard of it! Well, good luck, and hang in there! |
