- Another very common question relates to exactly how much we should be eating when on the Spud Fit Challenge. People are so afraid that they will over eat and that "all the carbs will make them fat".
Allow me to explain...
Let me know if you'd like me to make more videos to answer questions!

So i just started this potato diet thing and honestly, im loving it. I used to go to jack in the box, get a large bacon ultimate cheeseburger (2 patties, 4 slices of cheese, and bacon for those who dont have JIB) large fries, large soda, and two tacos and id still be hungry. But i swear to god with these plain potatoes i max out at two potatoes, aprox 300 calories. There were more calories in the large soda than my biggest meal of the day. Ive been doing this for literally 4 days and ive lost 9 lbs! 9! In four days! Im sure im going to slow down but the person that turned me onto this diet said she was losing about a pound a day. My pants already fit better and i honestly feel fantastic! It really is the craziest thing.
This is awesome! Well done to you!! Keep in touch and let me know if I can help!
@@lylaaxiom8750 there are a number of variables in weight, fat is only one of them.
I started mine today, I use salt and ketchup on mine, hope I can stick it out, it's hard, u get full very fast, I have a problem with night eating ,so today I ate as mush potatoes as I could before night time so I can stay full all night long,wish me luck
U eat potatoes 2 per meal or a day?. So far i've been on this diet for two days and can eat 2 per meal. I could easily eat more but i don't like the taste of boiled or baked plain potatoes. I'm trying this diet for 5 days so far lost 1.5 lbs
Max out on two potatoes ... interesting. I normally eat much less than you describe and two potatoes does not cut it for me.
You inspired me. Thank You!! I lost 9lbs in a week. I just eat potatoes, but NO Salt, NO Oil, NO Sugar, and the boil potatoes help you loose weight faster. Now I'm on my second week and Im adding a little bit of ketchup and spicy sauce (sometimes). I only drink water and milk. If you used condiments, is harder to loose the weight. Drinking plain hot water will help when using condiments. It gets easier on the second week. The more time it passes, the easier it gets. I may go for a full month. GOOD LUCK!
Awesome! Well done and keep in touch!
What, the weight got loose?! Where did it go?
Can’t remember the name of the study but there is one which showed that plain boiled potatoes are one of the most satiating foods you can eat. I have mine with a sauce of 1:1 Balsamic vinegar:soy sauce mixed up with a bit of French mustard. Bliss. I get my dopamine hit shovelling them into my mouth. 🤪
How many potatoes do I need to eat to get a great accent like yours?
haha!
What about the Japanese sweet potatoes? They are so delicious I could easily eat way more of them than just plain potatoes...Thoughts??? 😊
give it a try. Maybe a day or two at most of eating a lot and then you'll settle down.
Did the potato cleanse for a week, was amazing 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️❤️
Do you put anything on them? Or is it just plain potatoes 100%?
Atleast how many potatoes should i eat in a day ?
5 to 6 potatoes or much as i can ?
www.spudfit.com/faq - just eat as much as you feel like, as often as you feel like it.
Isnt one potato 283 cal
Potatoes and butter
minus the butter ;-)
If you “need” butter flavor, try a couple of drops of butter extract, although plain cold boiled potatoes are delicious! Plain potatoes are actually sweet so I sprinkle just a few grains of salt sometimes for a bit of added taste.
And why did you decide to make this video outside lol
why not? It was a lovely day
@@SpudFit for video purposes is why
@@TacoJoe70 part of me wants to get super professional with this and start making ultra-slick videos in a proper home studio, part of me just want's to be outside in the sunshine...
I think i now understand why health experts discourage the potato diet, it just puts them out of work
i think most of all they just don't understand it. You could be on to something too though.
Hello Again, I just wanted to touch base and share that I'm still eating just potatoes every 3 days, And a combination of Kale, Broccoli, Carrots,Brussel Sprouts for the other 4 days of the week. Adding the combination of whole foods has "stopped" the weight loss completely. So you were Right! adding other foods will stop weight loss. But, the unexpected silver lining, During this time of consistent weight. My looser skin, is now tightening to my new size. By maintaining my one month weightloss of 40Lbs. My loose skin has retracted back into my body and given me youthfulness, I'm making films weekly on my channel, I work in the Entertainment Industry on camera as a badguy or monster. I will be filming a video next week, sharing your channel and how much it has helped me evolve, to the new characters, that I now get to play on film. Thank You! ~Prince
awesome! Well done! So happy for you :-)
This may be 3 years late..:) , but during the 4 days that you add Kale, etc...are you still eating potatoes too?
I had an abusive relationship with food until I found your videos you posted on potato diet. I use them to maintain my weight after taking off 40 pounds 3 years ago. Thank you Andrew for inspiring me.
awesome!
How long did it take you?
It took me about two months of less.
@@zpoedog two months to lose 40 pounds?
Watched your videos and ive followed plant base for 2 years . At the age of 42 in a size 10 again i eat potatoes wifh the skins on and cook them in my slow cooker .Cool them then either heat thrm or eat them cold . I do this 5 days a week thr other 2 days i add beans and veg . Keeping it simple ahd feeling great 😊
I weigh out my potatoes and usually eat 300-400 grams in a meal. It’s a lot of food and I’m full but losing weight. It’s also very easy, quick to prep, and cheap… like the cheapest meal in town 😂
I have always had the food addiction going on. I’ve been doing mostly potatoes for a few weeks. I love it. I love mashed potatoes the most. The pain in my hands is gone and I can wear my ring again. I’m so close to my ideal body weight and love that I don’t have to weigh and measure my food and that I just don’t think about food 24/7 as I did before. Love this way of eating!!
great progress! So happy for you!
I love the diagrams and find your explanations so easy to understand I guess thats the teacher in you! Please keep making more videos I find your story so inspiring. Much love from the UK !
Thankyou! I'm a terrible artist but as long as it helps get the point across then I'll keep doing it :-)
@@SpudFit can you microwave to make baked potatoes? And when you eat them do they have to be cold? Because in the video you said that you challenged him to eat baked or boiled potatoes cold. Thx!!
you can cook them however you like. You can eat them what ever temperature you like. I just said cold to him because that makes them even more boring, thus more of a challenge to eat more.
@@SpudFit ok. Thank you for the response. And thx for your time and the great videos!!
Loved the drawings. I really liked this video. I cook them in my instant pot. Eat them when I go to work with Pico from Well Your World .
great idea!
I keep telling my daughter that her yellow, red, and purple potatoes she makes me are so good, and much better than when I make them. She says it's because someone else is making them for me, that she just boils them. Hard to believe that my mind can make that much difference, but I guess so. Now I try to make my meals special, and they actually tastes better. Those little purple potatoes are reeeeally good. I have some weight to go, so I'm giving this a try. Thanks for all your straight forward encouragement.
All the best! It's all in your mind :-)
When surrounded by foodies the path is full of challenges, but I am staying on course with the Spud FIt challenge. I bought new clothes yesterday and my belts are now at the last hole, the purchase of smaller belts will be the next purchase. Going from a waistline of 104 cm to 91.44 cm in 6 weeks isn't bad for this bloke.
well done!
I didn't follow you on your journey when you did your only potatoes for a year. But now, I'm going back and watching some of your older videos and they are very helpful. I like the poster who said he eats only potatoes for 3 days a week, then for the other 4 he adds certain vegetables. I've been going back and forth between Dr. McDougall's 3 programs: SS, MWL, and MM. I find I do better on MM because it's more similar to what you did than the other 2 programs. Anyway, wanted to say thank you for your efforts to make a difference in the lives of others.
so happy to be able to help in a small way! :-)
I watched everything that i could find on the Internet about this "Potato diet", Then i saw the "Warrior Diet" and liked it's idea of waiting 16 hours. But instead of consuming one meal with any calorie food, what if i made it extreme and ate just potatoes after that 16 hour wait. It's been exactly 7 days, i did workout everyday for at least 2 hours continuously. On the 3rd day, i felt drained of energy, laid on bed longer than usual, was slow and lathargic all day. The 4th day, more energy returned, my body finally stopped protesting and used my bodyfat for energy. The 5th day was a cakewalk, full of some magic energy from years of stored fat reserves, today is the 7th day, i feel amazing, im down 15lbs...i made a healthy eating video 7 days ago, featuring my size of 235lbs. Today, one week into the "extreme warrior diet" i weigh 220lbs, todays video shows glimpses of that loss ...thank you for the inspiration in all your videos, they are all motivating me daily. ~Prince :)
I do the same as well along with oats, barley and rice. I love potatoes and I can eat up to 8.7 pounds a day if I really try. Its impossible for me to go above nine pounds without getting sick from stuffing myself.
amazing!
@@cigileyAtTR Dr. McDougall says that it was not uncommon in Ireland (after the potato was introduced to the country in the 1500's) for men to eat up to 10 lbs of potatoes each day.
@@Will4fun hehe. Yes I have heard that too. But they were not eating it all in one meal like I do. I am also a fan of the people in the high andes. They seem to have great health.
First comment! Ayeeee 🤘🏽💕
Currently eating my vegan meal, spicy kimchi brussel sprouts mixed with corn, onions, & zucchini 😍 plus some steamed white rice on the side 😊🦄
bon appetite :-)
The scientific diagrams are irrefutable 🤣 I'm skinny so need the weight on me so I'll be keeping the bacon, cream cheese ,butter only in bakes potatos I eat the skin too delious 👍
Haha yes my diagrams are scientifically accurate and reliable! If you need more calorie dense foods to help keep the weight on I'd recommend eating more avocados, nuts and seeds rather than bacon, cream, cheese etc. Fruit smoothies can also be a good way to get some extra calories in without the downsides.
I like what he says here, "change your relationship with food" before "trying to lose weight" - so true. Working on that myself. I have a weakness for processed foods even though I've been McDougal for going on 7 years. Still battling weight issues due to age and menopause. Trying to eat more whole foods and whole plants. I feel so much better.
keep going!
I lost 30 pound I only eat mince beef, potato and dash of gravy, I cool my.potatoes to get more resistant starch. The great thing about this diet is the fact you can eat so much and seriously struggling to hit daily calorie intake.
is it okay to do dried potatoes? orrr does that it gets rid of everything healthy?
can you only have that "au naturale patate"
Just FYI: I did do this diet for about 4 weeks (i think). The reason was because I had surgery in my throat and was on recovery for 4 weeks. This was the diet the doctor gave me. Unintentional weight loss but I felt so much better and I lost 15 pounds. Planning on doing it again w/ doctors help. yup
fresh is best! Dried for emergencies only
Potatoes are low in calories for its weight!
Great video Some of the things people think are pretty funny. Do you worry about eating too much meat (you should). It is exceptionally difficult to overeat on a medium glycemic plant based whole food like potatoes. The same is true of beans and most whole food plant based foods. if you also include non-starchy vegetables then it's almost impossible to overeat. Now if you started cooking them in oil and covering them in salt that's a different story.
Very true!
I just ate about 7 potatoes a. day for 3 days and lost 4lbs, and I was definitely not craving more food. It is easy to feel full on potatoes. I ate them with salt, pepper and garlic powder (no oil or butter). I also made a very chunky potato onion celery soup (also no oil or butter)which was very filling and tasty, and that also seemed to have a similar effect. I think if I ate like that for one or two days a week I would definitely feel satisfied. I also seemed to have more energy.
Great job!
I never get tired of plain potatoes!
You like bland food?
Steamed potatoes and Dijon mustard is my go to when I am hungry 🥔
Me too!!
I am the same way my wife and daughter say it looks disgusting but I love mustard on my potatoes 🥔
Potatoes is now my main fuel source I’ve lost 28.8kg/63lbs. I eat more than ever, only exercise when I want too (not have too) and I spend less money. 3 wins for me. I now follow Dr John McDougall because of this page.
so great to read that! Well done!
@@SpudFit I'm now 45kg/99lbs. This week I'm doing my own challenge. I'm in a group of people from a beer drinking football culture trying to diet to lose weight. I don't drink but follow the NRL so I'm in there. I get shouted down when I said diets don't work and eat potatoes even quoting your FAQ page hahahahaha. One person who has always shouted down at me put up a confused post of dieting sucks, his weight went down 5kg to go up 7kg. So I reached out offering a challenge similar to yours with a slight difference. He won't take it up but I am for the fun of it. The challenge is for the next 6 days I'm going to eat potatoes plus add one vegetable and one fruit. I've chosen corn and apples. So I'm going to do this challenge of only having 3 foods with potatoes being the dominant one for the fun of it and to prove a point to someone who's struggling with addiction how to handle all this. I'm going to see how good it works and also see my financial expenditure. I only have water plus one beverage anyways so I'm doing well there and I told this person only one type of beverage and no more of two of that per day either tea, coffee, hot chocolate, beer or wine - but can't be soft drink, sports drinks, processed juices or glasses of milk. I follow you on Instagram (257matt). Love your work.
@@BulldogDynasty sounds like a great plan, I'm sure over time you will have influence on the people around you, even if they don't tell you, they are taking notice!
@@BulldogDynastyUpdate?
If you're eating a plain potato with NO flavor, I think one would be enough.
sometimes
How many is not enough? That's what I want to know.
Most days I can only manage about 6-7 medium sized potatoes
The cute drawings make me smile but you make so much sense. A few years ago I had a gastric sleeve , lost 100 lbs and gained it back. Still have a stomach the size of a banana, so I have to eat several times a day. I love potatoes, I love a baked potato with mustard, if you never tried it ..do
Spuds and mustard are great! Glad you like the video, thanks for the support. If you'd like some help then please email me, I've coached 3 other people in the same situation as you regarding gastric surgery. - andrew@spudfit.com

Hiya @Spud Fit.
Firstly thank you so so much for this life changer!! I'm officially on Day One of my life rest with spuds.
Can I just ask, does it matter *which* 🥔 🥔 I actually eat........ are any spuds *NOT* ok??? 🤔 🤔
All spuds are perfect!
Thank you, I love your drawings..so interesting..
Can I eat the potato along with the water I boiled it in? I usually pill the potato before boiling.
yes! www.spudfit.com/faq

Nice sky, what no chemtrails! I want to live there with no chemtrails!
I love spuds! A life saver 🙂🥔🍠
I've lost my ability to know when I'm full, so I eat & eat. An hour later my stomach hurts & I realize I way overate. Kind of afraid to do this with potatoes. I could easily eat 3 lb potatoes I think.
3 pounds in a meal is fine if you are choosing the right foods. You don't need to know when you're full, just eat as much as you feel like as often as you feel like it. I think you'll enjoy this - ua-cam.com/video/hKKhOjYjAPg/v-deo.html
I wondered if anybody on the potato diet had trouble sleeping. I’ve been on the potato diet for five days. And on two evenings I had an incredibly hard time getting to sleep. While my brain was tired.. my body seemed to want to keep going.
In the first couple of weeks, anything goes! After that things tend to settle down.
Great graphic images, Talking about potato water content, I freeze a mixture of potatoes and vegetables made into patties. I was amazed of the water, at the bottom of the pan, when they thawed
sounds great!
SJR... how do u make your patties?
That was a fantastic explanation of why potatoes work for weight loss! Thank you so much! I’m starting my second 10 day potato diet/Mary’s Mini. 6# down!!Excited!
Glad it was helpful!
GREAT explanation why this works. thanks I'm going to try this diet.
let me know if I can help
Foodgasm................love that word.
Could you please clear up the
Cold vs hot potato saga. Do you eat them both ways or do you have a prefference or is eating them cold the best way? Thanks.
I'll do a video some time. The short story is that it doesn't matter
Subbed and started the potato diet today!
:))
Fantastic video, happy new year from south Florida!
I’m doing beans and potatoes for a month. I like beans and like potatoes. Seams very easy to just eat that and not feel hungry or worry about what to eat. Just beans potatoes and salt. And I’m satisfied, kinda in shock about it really
great plan, keep it up!
I started cooking and the potatoes were so plain I got full after half of one
great!
Nightshade inflammation is hurting me seriously. This isnt for all peoples. I've tried it twice, in one month both times I start puffing up with inflammation.
I love potatoes but they are not loving me back.
Sweet potatoes should work fine for you. I have helped many people with nightshade allergies. Most people can do only sweet potatoes for a couple of weeks and then slowly reintroduce nightshades with no troubles.
Glad to see you havent gone carnivore like everyone else on youtube. 😵
haha it's madness!
@@SpudFit
5:46 _If you eat 400 calories of potatoes you're gonna fill up your stomach._ Nope! Just measly 3 average size potatoes would exceed 400 calories by about 50.
Arthur Hakhverdian an average potato has around 100 calories. Besides that, what are you trying to say? The point I’m making about calorie density stands regardless.
So true.

Will this diet work for people with diabetes? Is it safe?
yes this is fantastic for people with diabetes! Check out this article/video I made on the topic - spudfit.com/why-potatoes-are-great-for-diabetes/
I find I'm constantly hungry on this diet. I am hungry every couple hours
Eat more then! 👍
3rd day on potatoes and it's awesome so far
great! Come join our group! facebook.com/groups/thespudfitchallenge
I started Jan 1, today is Jan 9. Yesterday I wasn’t hungry at all. Didn’t eat any potatoes. Is it normal for that to happen? Is my body eating my fat? I know I’m losing weight. Need to check it. Been tired. Just feeling like fasting.
Hard to make any recommendations without more details. It is normal for appetite to fluctuate though, especially in the beginning while your body is still adjusting.
I noticed that on my 6 and 7 day, wasnt as hungry, went down to one potato a day, but i had tons of energy. Tomorrow is day 8 for me, my diet is just a baked potato, fresh from the fridge, because you need to let the starch crystalline in fridge, after you cook it, to make the starch into a resistance starch. That's clearly the key to it working as expected.
AsmrSleepCenter I didn’t think about that thanks. Did you reheat some? I have some potato flour that I used to mix in water for that purpose before I found the potato diet
@@sungazer888 Yes, i reheated the potatoes after i let the starch crystalline. From some research on this, if you reheat the potatoes and then cool them, they build more resistant starch. The more times you heat and cool a potato, the greater the resistant starch becomes. The key to what's working for me, was to really monitor what's in my condiments, that I'm consuming with my potatoes. I tossed out all the ketchups & mustards and purchased organic versions made with natural sugars or no sugar. Because its pointless to eat a healthy potato and slather it with sugar filled condiments. Make sure to toss out anything with high fructose corn syrup in it. Most importantly, there is no failure in doing this, you will lose water weight before the fat is consumed as energy. As long as you dont cover your potato in cheese and fat and eat it, your body is going to miss the fat intake and go use those fat reserves its been saving all these years. Don't give up! If anyone wants to know more, I could use more subscribers :)
I'm really inspired by your videos. I have been so addicted to food and it is, has been, impacting the quality of my life for many years now. But as time passes, the consequences get worse. I'm going to start the potato diet tomorrow so I can start off the upcoming new year healthier, stronger, and more confident. Thanks so much for your videos!
All the best! Keep in touch :-)
@@SpudFit Thank you so much! I know you mentioned taking b12 -- I'm just wondering if it's ok to take other supplements as well or is it better to hold off and just let the potato magic do it's own thing.

Good q by him but not an issue. I put down 2 kegs of potatoes a days and I don’t put on weight
Day 1 for me and apparently I'm trying to prove you wrong. It's only 3 in the afternoon and I've done 2kg of potatoes 🤣 but I'm sure it'll sort itself out. Again, I really like your terminology. Foodgasms. Dopamine. You're really talking about food addiction without fluffing it or belittling how powerful and addictive it can be. 🙂👊🏽
Awesome, keep it up! I'm just in the process of uploading a lecture on Volume Eating in my membership website, you might find that interesting and helpful...
How's it going?
What is the preparation? Skin on? Baked? Boiled? Raw?
However you like. Just don't add any fat.
Raw is probably not a good choice
Day two and I can hardly finish 4 potatoes
Eat as much as you feel like, as often as you feel like it.
@@SpudFit wowwww 🙌🙌
I use light ranch that doesn’t have cholesterol in it,to put on my potato...is that bad?

Does the same rule apply for a diabetic? Meaning, can a diabetic also eat the potatoes to his/her heart's content on a daily basis like twice a day or so?
yes, definitely! As long as you leave out processed and fatty foods like oils and animal products

I had 7 potatoes today and that's because , l was home and when l'm home l eat more, but l am so full and l had my dinner at 7 and not planning on eating anymore bc l am so full. 🤣
My calorie counter says 750 cal and 180 g of carbs.
When l work , l usually fast bc l don't like to eat when l work , then have dinner about 4 potatoes and fast again until the next day 5 .This is 3 days a week fasting.
No need to plan to eat or not, just eat as much as you feel like, whenever you feel like it. Are you in our free membership website? Sign up here www.spudfitmembers.com/register
So when I do this diet ive only eaten 1 potato a day and lots of water. Sometimes ill eat another potato for dinner. Is this bad? Also can u put salt and pepper on them everytime?
that's not even close to enough food. You're in starvation mode if that's all you're eating. Salt and pepper is fine
Spud Fit so I also have another question. So I start school soon, do you have a recommendation on how I could do this diet while going to school? I dont really wanna bring potatos to school. So should I just eat one in the morning, maybe a nutri grain bar for lunch, then potato for dinner?
everyone is weird, weird is normal. The only people who are truly weird are those who think they aren't. Embrace your weird, eat potatoes at school.

Can I eat sweet potato
have a read of this and let me know if I missed anything www.spudfit.com/faq
I think if you are about 23-30 stone you may need 2.5-3.5Kg of potato a day and gradually reduce them. There gets a point where you can eat too many but at first if you are truely a food addict, it doesn't matter. Binge of the potato and then if it is not addictive you'll come off real addictive food (meat, sugar, dairy) and feel less hungry. Once the craving have decreased reduce the carbs. Check on internet how many calories you need for your weight and activity level.
Overthinking. You don't need to worry about how many calories you need to eat, you don't need to figure out what's right for you. Just eat as much as you feel like, as often as you feel like it and your body will figure everything out for you.
How much can you loose in a month?
That depends on a number of variables for each individual so it's hard to say. I lost 10kg in my first month and another 10kg in my second.

Great explanation Spudfit. I started today, ate mine with some jalapeno mango salsa on the potatoes. Only 10 calories per 2 tbsp. I ended up eating about 5-6 lbs(?) of potatoes and the entire jar of salsa ; 13 servings for 130 calories. I feel like I over ate. I ate ALOT of potatoes. Are low cal condiments ok in your book?
check out www.spudfit.com/faq a good rule of thumb is about one teaspoon of your salsa for a large spud.

Do you have an instant pot recipe for mashed potatoes?
cook potatoes in an instant pot with a little water. Add a bit of plant based milk and mash :-)
Thanks!!
use only an inch of water, and put the potatoes on top of the little metal rack that comes with the instant pot. This way the potatoes steam, rather than boil in water. The first time I tried potatoes in the instant pot, I filled it up with water, and the potatoes were too mushy.
Made sense up until the bit about being full on 400 calories of potatoes. Not for many and certainly not me
ok so eat more, what's the problem? It's all relative. The same theory applies, just different numbers.
On September 1st I am starting this plan with a goal of 50 pounds I will do it for 31 days if it is going great I will go to 62 days I am excited to start this it will be hard with my wife getting fast food every other day and my oldest daughter getting food delivered all the time I have a strong mind to not give in I went out with the family to a all you can eat place I had water with lemon it did not bother me.
That's great news! I'd encourage you to not rely on a strong mindset (though that is very important) and instead learn how to think differently so that mental strength is not required. Join us in our membership area (you can start for free) www.spudfit.com
How did it Go?
What's difference in mood when you were eating just potatoes compared to when you are eating varied vegan diet
I was clinically depressed and anxious before I did my year of potatoes and this made a huge difference
@@SpudFit do you feel better on potatoes only or on normal whole vegan diet
Godonichia Augustus the same
@@SpudFit did you had healing crisis during potatoes diet like diarrhoea or fever or cold
@@krishanlal5680 it takes some time for the body to adjust to a new way of eating. during this adjustment phase all sorts of things can happen.
How many potatoes is too few? 500 calories, 800 calories? I was losing hunger rapidly on a potato only diet; hitting around 500 calories a day. That didn’t seem too healthy.
depends how long you do it for. Lots of people fast on water only for extended periods.
@@SpudFit Ive always thought about that. People worry about eating too few calories and messing up the metabolism but here we have extended fasters and supposedly metabolism is revved up. 🤷🏽♀️
Thanks Spuddy. Mike
