He saw a program about an Australian that went on a potato diet and lost 100+ lbs. Turns out a potato has lots of vitamins, etc. and with a little addition (can’t remember what) it is nutritionally complete.
So, only potatoes...NOTHING ADDED. You can eat as many as your want. Boiled, baked, nuked....later I think some seasoning can be added, salt, pepper other seasoning. But, NO BUTTER, OIL, SOUR CREAM....NOTHING. You soon can taste the difference between red, yukon, etc. potatoes. The weight just falls off and you are full. How many plain potatoes a day do you think you could eat?
A number of online sites, videos can be found about the potato diet.
He had always had a weight problem, as did his dad. After a year (with some small breaks) he lost over 100 lbs. The potato diet takes away one of the major drawbacks to other diets...decisions...you don’t have many...only which kind of potato and boiled, baked or microwaved.
I’m too much of an Omnivore to enjoy an all-potato diet. And, yes. Potatoes ARE chock full of vitamins and minerals, but no butter? No sour cream? Nope! :)
