| To be offended or afraid of the word "diet" is troubling to me. I thought Atkins dieters were different. But nothing ever changes. Dr. Atkins was a pioneer in his time, and endured ridicule for his diet. Even now in 2009, to be on the Atkins diet can inspire criticism from vegetarians and others who think what they are doing is so much better. Now here on the actual Atkins Board saying the word diet is a no no. Good grief. I will be staying away from this board from now on. Some of you ---not all--- need to get your heads on straight.

| No one said the word "diet" is a "no no". I was simply clarifying the meaning it should have for someone on Atkins.
