Because people diet to lose weight and people who fast do it for a multitude of reasons. For example I like to do occasional fasts to keep me eating my fruits and veggies, because I find after I've been off my fast for about 4 to 6 weeks naughty foods begin to become a regular part of my diet instead of my fruits and veggies. I also do it to jump start my weightloss again.

Also, diet has many other definitions. For example people with diabetes need to be on a low suger "diet." Basically sugar isn't included in what they're eating.

People who eat vegan, vegetarian, pescapalian and so on... are eating a vegan, vegetarian, pescapalian diet. What I'm trying to say is diet is another way to say eating lifestyle and people have turned it around to mean some kind of fad diet at the moment.

^^ I agree. I never use recipes. I've base my shopping on what's seasonal and on sale at the grocery store. Then I just mix stuff up that sounds good to juice.

This is where I get mine. Great site!
