Unhappy People just dont believe in low carb diets

I have been swimming for 3 weeks now, almost every morning and started low carbing January 27th 2003.

By cutting out all dairy products and carbs i have been able to get ride of all the stomach bloating i add. My gut and lovehandles are almost gone has well.

So this morning i was in the sauna and this guy thats swims every morning comes in, he starts talking to me, he said, what kinda a diet are you on and what exercices do you do, its quit amazing how much fat you lost on your stomach.

I first told him that right now since i have a lower back injury i cant do very much in therm of training so swimming has about it, and a brisk walk with my dog when its not to cold outside.

So he ask me what kinda of diet i am on and what supplements do i take.

Well i got to go to breakfast with him and offered to explain everything in detail to him, and make sure he understand everything i said so he can benefit himself of low carbing.

So we get to the gym small cafeteria, he orders 2 brand muffin, 2 pieces of toast whole wheat nothing on them and a tall glass of orange juice.

I order 2 whole eggs and 3 slice of bacon, you should have seen the look on is face? what all that fat.

I told him that fat isnt evil and explained the whole concept of low carbing.

I just couldnt beleive it the guy saw how fast i got resutls and that low carbing works, he just didnt beleive in any of it.

He thank me but told me that its not for him and that he will stick with is high carb diet.

He told me that he has been training for 2 years now and has lost 10 pounds, i told him that with low carb he could have lost 50 pounds.

Its pertty sad that everytime i tell people that i am on low carb i get this is dangerous, be careful, its crap.

But the people see it works????????
