Re: Setting yourself up for rebellion
After having lunch on a number of occasions with a co-worker, and telling her that I don't eat bread or anything made with flour, she never questioned me about it. Then after months of knowing her, in a conversation, I told her I was doing Atkins and she was surprised! She just thought I was allergic to those foods. So, it is definitely proven in my mind that saying "I don't" instead of "I can't eat.." results in less questions and less negative feedback.....Cool
