[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was easily able to maintain my low-carb lifestyle on a cruise last year. With a buffet/smorgasbord, it's easy to tailor your meals.Who cares what other people think.[/quote]
I’m hoping I’m assuming it’ll be more annoying than it actually will be. I know a few of the women going are the “I deserve this” types who try to guilt you into “being bad” with them so they feel better. [b]I just don’t want to argue at every meal.[/b][/quote]

The key is to not engage.  Let people say what they want to say and don't explain yourself, don't talk about what you're eating or not eating, just smile and nod and do your thing.  You will feel the urge to defend your eating but just don't.  Do as little as possible to call attention to yourself and your eating and fake that it's 100% normal.

The same goes for talking about your body and weight loss.  People will comment on it, but just change the subject and move on.  You have to make your body and eating habits an off-limits topic through zero aggression or actual declaration of that, just make it de facto by normalizing not talking about it. [/quote]
