There are a number of potato diet videos on YouTube, claiming that those who have tried it have lost up to 100 pounds in three or four months. I presently weigh 335 pounds and have mobility issues dues to my age (75) and advanced arthritis. I could probably get around a lot easier if I could shed 100 pounds by next December. Any thoughts or recommendations?
As a registered dietitian, I have to say that this is one of the most asinine fad diets I have ever heard of.
I've already consulted my doctor and he approved the diet, advising me to eat my regular diet, with moderation two days a week. It's working, so far. I've gone from 335 lbs. to 317 lbs. in about four weeks. I love potatoes. This is the easiest diet I've ever tried.
