No More Dieting

No More Dieting

Does anybody know when the word diet went from a noun to a verb?
Noun: Food and drink regularly consumed
Verb: An allowance of food prescribed for a special reason (as to lose weight)

I'm going on a diet. Getting or going on something means at some point you'll need to get off. Nobody loses weight to regain it! We really need to look at weight loss more as a new lifestyle and not a diet. (verb) It is critical that we lose weight in a way that we can live it.

Are you making changes in your diet (noun) that are too extreme? Or can you see the changes fitting into your lifestyle for the long run? WW and the Momentum plan really are set up to be satisfying and sustainable.
