People claim they have lost weight using this diet (no kidding) and I'm really tempted to try it. What do you think? One year of eating like I was on rations. Could it be so bad?
Sounds interesting. Post the web site so we can make opinions of this diet.

I have ration books and stamps that were my granny's. The had each persons name on them. The one thing with rations is that in the country people grow their own food so thay had more then what was alloted to them. In the city there was the black market. I think people eat more then what we are are told. A lot more!!!!!!!
