Exactly... When I did the diet before it became popular, there were still cheaper alternatives out there... The 3-Carb bars were $1 cheaper than the atkins bars, there were cheaper protein powders, and I just bought regular chicken, eggs, etc from the grocery store instead of buying Atkins supplements. Also just read the books and a couple of others (zone, south beach, etc) at the bookstore, so the company never made a dime off me although I did benefit a lot from the diet.
