Gwathimir has made the most important thing and that is that he decided to keep away/ moderate junk food. And that is not something that people do lightly. I think we all know people who have problems with weight but can not make themselves stick to the diet.
Correct, and staying away from junk food has nothing to do with potatoes.
I'm trying the potato diet because I've seen videos about it on YouTube. All I can say is that it's worked okay for me, so far. To date, I've lost 18 pounds. I'll weigh myself again next Friday or Saturday.
I ate the last of my boiled Russet Potatoes yesterday. I'm cooking another batch this morning. It's a bit of a hassle without my houseboy here because I can only move about the kitchen using a cane. I have to transfer the potatoes to the stew pot, after cleaning, with only one hand. Then I have to fill the pot with water the same way. I guess, beside dieting, I'm getting a bit of exercise.
