VLCDing...again!
Im having a good day LT wise. I managed to have 2 shakes in work today!!! V impressive.
But, as usual, there is a fly in the ointment.
I have a friend who wanted to do LT after seeing how well I did, her BMI was 26 and I didnt think the Pharm would give it to her but they did and she couldnt cope with the shakes, gave up after the 1st one.
But our mutual friend, well, she was giving her a lot of stick for even considering it, even though she had been saying to me that she supported my choice to do LT.
Now my friend has given up, our mutual friend was saying a lot of rubbish...
saying that she was stronger than such an extreme diet and that she should find something to challenge her in a good way.
saying people on LT are akin to those who have liposuction, they will never be happy with their bodies because they dont have the pyschological capacity to accept their new bodies
and that if my friend worked hard at dieting and going the gym she would appreciate it more.
I was a bit peed off to be honest at what she was saying. Although I knew it wasnt a personal attack on me, I felt it was an attack on LT and no-one talks that way about my LT!!!
But I told her I didnt agree and bascially she started on this big tirade about how irrational I was and she just doesnt believe in the diet, she thinks its unhealthy and she will never change her mind although she is sure there are billions of medical journals saying how great this 'idea' is.
It made me, yet again, so sad.
I do think Im hormonal but I wish people would support rather than give me crap because Im doing something a little bit different!!!
