If asked I just say I'm on a diet. The few I have told about LL, I have had some friends say to me 'It can't be healthy', I just say to them, 'you try living everyday carrying a 40kg bag of coal on your back, how healthy would you feel, how healthy would your knees be, how much energy would you have to walk or exercise' they can't say anything after that. I'm getting healthy, and this is how I'm doing it. And its making me feel great, which is all I need to know.
