I get annoyed when people ask how I've lost weight, and I feel reluctant to say "I'm on Atkins" because I've heard so many ignorant responses, like:

*"eewww that is so unhealthy"
* "Aren't you worried about cholesterol?"
* "I know someone who lost wt. on Atkins and gained it all back + more..."
* the most annoying: when someone just raises their eyebrows and says, "ohhhhhh" or "hmmmmm"
