A pound of grapes only contains about 310 calories. The basal metabolic rate, the amount of calories needed to sustain a given weight, is roughly 10 calories per pound. An individual weighing 150 pounds for instance would require 1500 calories a day just lying down in order to stay the same weight. 310 calories does not even get close. The 150 pound person would have a loss of 1190 calories a day. A pound of fat has 3500 calories. Over 31 days our 150 pound person loses out on 36,890 calories or about 10 pounds.
So, a person would slowly starve on this diet. Not to mention the nutritional disaster that eating only grapes for a month would wreak. These are all rough estimates and any individual's metabolism and weight would have an effect on the data. Also, the body does not necessarily go after fat reserves alone while starving. Muscle tissue is also consumed in order to continue vital functions.
