Camp Cropper and The Two Pound Diet
Recently, I was "blessed" with a trip to Iraq having work at the now
infamous Camp Cropper outside of Baghdad International Airport and the reopened penal facility at Abu Ghraib. The food is rationed and includes beans, a few liters of water, canned meat....well under two pounds per day and usually only in a single meal (morning). No one has died from malnutrition. There is not one fat POW in the group (anymore). The incident of disease is far less than expected according to the International Red Cross folks I spent a great deal of time with. I had the opportunity to talk with a number of very intelligent Iraqis many who were part of the Deck of Cards. When I asked them about their appetites, their hunger, to a one the responses were similar. They had learned to adjust over a period of days and weeks but the hunger cravings had been either severely reduced or eliminated all together. Would they prefer to eat more? Sure. Did they need to eat more? No. The entire time I spent there, not one POW asked or attempted to bribe me for more food. Tobacco? Oh, yes. Water?, Yep. Food? Not one. The Simple Two Pound Diet works as advertised...even when it is implemented on those who, shall we say, didn't exactly choose to use it. |

All (low calorie) diets "work" on those who "don't choose to use them". This is never questioned by anybody with more then 17 brain cells. Whether or not the 2PD will work with people in the "affluent west" where food choices are abundant can't be demonstrated by it's "forced" implementation POWs in a third world country. (of course the 2PD *will* work if followed "with an ounce of common sense" as you once put it, but so will any other low calorie diet) Taking you at your word that you did go to Iraq, how many of the POWs were obese before becoming POWs?. With the exception of some former elites, I would guess that most weren't because Iraqis don't eat as much as we do here in the good old fat USA. They probably ate 2 pounds or its caloric equivalent when they weren't POWs. So once again, the only thing you demonstrated is... If you eat more then your body needs, you may get fat. If you don't eat more then your body needs, you won't get fat. If you are fat and you eat less then your body needs to maintain the fat, you'll get unfat. But then again, anybody with 17 brain cells or more knows that too. BTW, I'm beginning to believe that we won't solve the obesity problem until we can get to the point where those who would otherwise be prone to obesity can maintain a weight that's healthy for them with intuitive ad lib eating and without ANY dieting schemes or paraphernalia. This would include journals, charts, points, calorie counters, fat or carb gram counters, ketosticks, or food scales. -- Ron Ritzman http://www.panix.com/~ritzlart Smart people can figure out my email address |

Yup, that's quite a blessing for someone like you. It's out bad luck they let you back. The food is rationed and includes beans, a few liters of water, canned meat....well under two pounds per day and usually only in a single meal (morning). "Coming soon, from the creators of the 2 pound a day diet, the ALL NEW "Beans and canned meat once a day meal plan!" No one has died from malnutrition. You mean "No one has YET died ..." There is not one fat POW in the group (anymore). How many fat POWs were there to begin with? Iraq isn't exactly Samoa. I had the opportunity to talk with a number of very intelligent Iraqis many who were part of the Deck of Cards. Don't tell me, let me guess. You played poker with them. When I asked them about their appetites, their hunger, to a one the responses were similar. I'll be they said "Get lost you pathetic loser!" They had learned to adjust over a period of days and weeks but the hunger cravings had been either severely reduced or eliminated all together. People who fast for several days say their hunger pains go away too. Would they prefer to eat more? Sure. Did they need to eat more? No. How do you know? The entire time I spent there, not one POW asked or attempted to bribe me for more food. Tobacco? Oh, yes. Water?, Yep. Food? Not one. Pray tell, dear mu/roose, with what would they bribe you? Sand? Nail clippings? The Simple Two Pound Diet works as advertised...even when it is implemented on those who, shall we say, didn't exactly choose to use it. There you have it, ladies and gentlemen, you too can lose weight by enrolling in a concentration camp. Hey, mu/roose, why don't you try to sell this idea to the corrections board. I doubt even Texas would go for this because they'd consider it as a cruel and unusual punishment. |

The POW"s reported a significant decrease in hunger, a large loss of appetite. many of these folks were once aristocratic and many never had the addition of manual labor (increased energy consumption) which, one would think, should have driven hunger up. It didn't happen. Taking you at your word that you did go to Iraq, how many of the POWs were obese before becoming POWs?. From records and from personal observation, approximately half. Very much like an American population. With the exception of some former elites, I would guess that most weren't because Iraqis don't eat as much as we do here in the good old fat USA. They probably ate 2 pounds or its caloric equivalent when they weren't POWs. Nope, these were mostly affluent, upper class, so to speak, in Cropper. They ate very American lifestyles except for the lack of fast food. But then, upper class, affluent America is mot the major customer of fast food. So once again, the only thing you demonstrated is... If you eat more then your body needs, you may get fat. If you don't eat more then your body needs, you won't get fat. If you are fat and you eat less then your body needs to maintain the fat, you'll get unfat. But then again, anybody with 17 brain cells or more knows that too. Tell the folks who are responding differently to this thread then. The fact that one has to repeat the obvious over and over again doesn't reflect on the truth of the message just the abilities, emotions, hatred and prejudices of the ones the message is aimed at. BTW, I'm beginning to believe that we won't solve the obesity problem until we can get to the point where those who would otherwise be prone to obesity can maintain a weight that's healthy for them with intuitive ad lib eating and without ANY dieting schemes or paraphernalia. This would include journals, charts, points, calorie counters, fat or carb gram counters, ketosticks, or food scales. I would disagree and look, again, to the successes of the 2PDiet. At some point, almost everyone tosses their food scales away. You don't need them to assess volume and you stop wanting to eat too much anyway. |

Until you answer the questions regarding your quad bypass, your smoking, your obesity and why, with all the information known to you, by your own admission, you nearly killed yourself with a lousy diet, gluttony, excesses and no exercise, you can keep your hands off your keyboard and in your pants. It will be the only thing you will have left to play with, Cheffie. I'm no longer interested in your pitiful TROLLING and useless demagoguery. |
