Well, I say alone, not completely. I'll obviously have my CDC and here, but I've decided not to tell my family that I'm starting back on CD again. They were quite dubious about it at first, but then were supportive of me, especially when they saw it working. But they were fairly concerned about the health side of it.
When I stopped they became fairly critical of the diet again. Said they were glad that it helped me, but was more glad that I stopped because they were worried about the speed I was losing the weight and the implications health wise. One of my sisters didn't like it at all and referred to it as that silly diet. She's a nurse so thinks she knows best.
And then the other day we were all sitting around the table and for some reason ended up talking about Atkins and how it's not good because of something or other, and my sister was going on about a guy gong into renal failure because of Lighter Life. And everyone was saying they didn't think diets like that were the best way to go about it.
So I think that this time rather than say anything, I'm just going to get on with it. I can't be bothered to sit there and listen to them as they tell me that they don't think that I should be doing something so drastic, and that they think it's bad for my health and that it's given me the kick start I need to now do it on my own. I've moved out of my parents place again so it doesn't matter now, they don't need to know as I'm in my own place. So they can just see the difference when they next see me, but event hen I don't think I'll say about CD. I just figure that this diet is difficult enough without family not being that helpful.
Does anyone else have issues with their family and CD? Wondering the best way to convince them it's safe and ok, but not sure I can, so probably just won't try. Just tell them when I've finished that it was CD and be like ha, see, I'm fine and healthy and I've lost all the weight. So yeah, I'm going to stop rambling now! Sorry!
