Default Re: Maintenance For Real People

I would never dream of eating something that was bad for me because of peer pressure. I have had the occational fast food burger WITHOUT the bun. I get questioned all the time about how I eat. People ask me "how do you stay so thin" and "why don't you eat bread" or "why can't you have just a bite of this cake?" Maybe some people think I am weird or crazy but most of the time I feel like people admire me and wish they could also be a size 2. I have been thin and fit for many years, all thanks to low carbing. I share my way of eating with anyone that wants to know. I love helping people and encouraging them. I have cheered for many friends as they lost weight following the Atkins diet. If I ate 40-50 refined carbs a day, I would gain weight. Not worth it! I maintain my weight at 25 net carbs a day and those are 25 complex carbs. I would never waste my percious carbs on junk. I am never ashamed at how I eat. I am very proud of the way I eat. Who cares what other people think. I am the one wearing my little jeans!
