I get negative reactions from almost everyone around me. I was just telling people I was cutting flour, sugar and processed foods and my mother calls people up and says oh she does atkins. I think my mother just feels better with the shocked responses when they tell her its not healthy and my mother agrees and hopes I will change lol. I honestly feel she is trying to sabotage me because she is bitter that I can stick to mine and she goes off her macrobiotic thing all the time.

I just shrug it off or give smug responses to them. I did get a huge compliment yesterday from my baby cousins babysitter when I went there. She looked at me and told me I lost so much weight and looked good which was really nice and made me feel good that someone outside of my family who doesnt know I am dieting says something.
