The Diaper Diet

Diaper Looking to lose weight? Eat a diaper.

That's the idea behind a new diet pill being tested in Italy. It's made of a diaper material so absorbent one pill swells up to the size of a tennis ball in the tummy.

For about two hours, your exploded-diaper stomach has little room for more food. Italian researcher Alessandro Sannino, the first person to take the pill, says:

It's the same as you feel after a plate of spaghetti.

The pill should be on the market by May. In the meantime, there's always Alli, where diapers serve a whole 'nother purpose.
