“To make a very long story short: Avoid the keto diet,” she concluded. “Common sense.”

Jillian took to Twitter to fight back at both of them. She
wrote, “I have an idea... @Andy @alroker how about a civil intelligent debate on
The 6 Keys book and keto instead of personal attacks and name calling? I’m also a motivator and I know you guys can do this. ??.”

She sent videos to Al explaining her position. When he didn’t respond, she
wrote, “Still waiting on that phone call. Let me know when ya Twitter fingers are tired.”

But Jillian was unconvinced. In a new video, she said, “It should be common sense that this diet is not ideal” since your cells are made up of protein, fat, carbs, and nucleic acid.

“When you go after something that a lot of people have banked a lot of money on you’re gonna get a lot of pushback,” she said, but she wouldn’t back down.

But this wasn’t common sense to a few celebrities on the diet. Al, 64, tweeted, “So @JillianMichaels says #Keto is a bad idea. This from a woman who promoted on camera bullying, deprivation, manipulation and more weekly in the name of weight loss. Now those sound like bad ideas.
Andy, 50, made Jillian his “Jackhole of the Week.”

She also
pointed out that Andy had called
Savannah Guthrie “dumb” for going keto a few months ago. She tweeted, “.@Andy I think you single handedly sold a ton of copies of my new book
The 6 Keys from all the other 'jackholes' wondering why they shouldn’t do Keto ? This 'jackhole' thanks you ??.”
She sent videos to Al explaining her position. When he didn’t respond, she
wrote, “Still waiting on that phone call. Let me know when ya Twitter fingers are tired.”
