In the late '60s and 70s, Weight Watchers was the new thing. The site
owner pokes fun at all of those recipes but they made sense at the time.
And people lost weight without feeling hungry. The Program then was very
stringent -- you had to eat certain things. Three fish meals a week, I
think. Liver once a month? Once a week? I don't remember.
Nutritional guidelines and information has changed since then. Bread
was required. As evermore, if you go back to old ways, the weight
returns.

The food wasn't so bad. I remember an open-face reuben-type sandwich --
a slice of bread toasted on one side, topped with sliced chicken breast,
some kraut, and topped with a slice of cheese and broiled. It was, in
fact, pretty tasty.
