Default Naysayers & support systems

I showed a coworker my NROLW book b/c she recently started working out and she commented on the "manly-looking woman on the cover" and laughed at the subtitle saying "lift like a man, look like a man hahaha". I also have a friend who tells me I'm going to die of a heart attack b/c of my high-protein diet. I realize these mindsets are caused by lack of knowledge, but it's still annoying to hear this stuff and I don't want to sound "preachy" by correcting them (although most of the time I do anyway).

Do you tell a lot of people about your goals? Are there any naysayers in your life? Who is your support system?

I don't have a lot of support b/c I don't really tell a lot of people about my goals. My husband is a huge support though...we support each other and I'm so grateful for that. And of course, people who are on the program...this forum is fabulous! =o)
