Eating a Mono Diet: Don’t take that trip to the Island!
Video taken from the channel: Loren Lockman
“People who follow the mono diet eat only one type of food (like bananas or potatoes) to try to lose weight. There’s no scientific evidence supporting this type of diet. Nutrition professionals warn it can lead to nutrient deficiencies and that any.The main principle of mono diet is to choose one product that you like.
You don’t have to count calories and most importantly, you practically don’t have to cook. Besides, mono diets promise great results. You can lose from 3 to 6 kilograms.
Mono diets work very well in the short term but are dangerous in the long term. The reason for this is that while your body is scrambling to make up for all the nutrients you’re not giving it, it is burning fat and killing off all the bad toxins inside of you. This can only last for so long however, and eventually, you will become malnutritioned.

The whole purpose of banana island etc is supposed to be to detox and cleanse or maybe for some just to lose weightnot to sustain life forever.
This is complete bro science, this diet actually came out in 1849. The fat you eat is the fat you wear, do it right next time…
I eat a lot of plain potatoes boiled up in water…. I can’t get enough of them.
Fasting is dangerous if you lack nutrients in the body, because when the body burns fats, guess what… toxins are released as well and the liver needs to hurry up and filter that to convert it into “water-soluble” state….BUT… in order for the liver to do so, it needs nutrients for the phase 1 and Phase 2 process. If you are deficient, you are screwed, the liver cant process those toxins and it may harm the organs! I dont think fasting is good for people with chronic illnesses. I rest my case.
A Diet That Is Not Without Danger
Currently, no medical studies can prove the beneficial effects of a mono diet. And, if some say that mono diets are effective, many testimonials darken the picture with adverse effects: intestinal disorders, stomach ache, weight gain, great fatigue, etc. Thus, eating only one food for three days could have adverse effects on your organism, depending on the selected food.
Moreover, this type of diet can also create disgust with a certain type of food: it would be a pity to deprive yourself of delicious vegetables and fruits! Finally, fruit-based mono diets can cause too high a sugar intake, for example, in the case of grape-based mono diets. Finally, you may suffer from severe nutritional deficiencies if you consume only one kind of food. As a result, health professionals say it is a hazardous diet and do not recommend it.
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!
So.. eating only watermelon for 30 days is bad. But eating nothing for 30 days is ok?
I don’t understand the logic here.
This is crazy, some nutritionists say carb is bad but supposedly people lose weight with potatoes, who to believe in you don’t know, apparently everybody is specialist in health and diet.hmmm
Great job!! It sounded better without the mic to my ears. I am now a proud member of the potato squad!!!
You’re doing great! And you’re right about not dwelling on the scale numbers.
I like what you said about differentiating when it’s the head talking vs. the body!
Very helpful. Head plans, body is in the now.
At a time when there is such a bombardment of talks and videos about mono island eating this is a very timely sharing of your knowledge Loren. Thank you.
I have heard it for the first time ��.But you look amazing ❤️
if deficiencies are likely to happen on a mono diet, they are even more likely to happen on a water fast, aren’t they?
Yeah its crazy how hard it is to eat a lot of potato calories if just baked without oil etc. Honestly after 2 medium sized baked potato’s I really start to struggle. 3 and I’m stuffed full. But then I’m a skinny guy so probably don’t have a naturally big appetite.
Hello mr Lockman, here in Holland we have poor quality of fruits. bananas are one of the few fruits we can buy here all year around. they always turn into ripe and sweet fruit over time. they provide energy for the whole day easily. its an other thing with sourly fruit. my body tells me that it won’t like to much of the sour native fruits like apples, or imported ones like kiwi, pineapple, grapefruit. in fact it won’t satisfy my hunger. sometimes i try to substitute with tomato’s or cucumber salad, but it won’t last for the whole day. then i need some seed, (sesame,pumpkin seed pasta) nuts (only almond roasted ones) or dried fruit (like dates, figs) to get through the day. of course i get very thirsty after eating those alternatives. what do you advise people with this geological problem (except moving to Costa Rica:)

Hi Loren, Can you name a few high water content fruits and veggies that are good to eat after we have completed the water cleanse. If we wanted to go to a total fruits and veggie diet?
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:)
so inspired, I just decide to the fast!!! I will write you an e -mail Loren, thank for the all the information
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!!
Can you possibly help with a meal plan? I’m looking all over and can’t find anything��
I start tomorrow. Just tell me straight upcan I add a tbsp of vegan butter per meal (3 tbsp/ day)?? Because I love potatoes but just plain veggies, I can’t lol. I could for a week at most. The only vegetable I can eat plain is corn, raw carrot, & cucumber
Loren what do u think of the Muculsless Diet Healing System where certain practioners such as Professor Spira and Brother Air have been doing that for decades, and the idea of that system is that we can survive on air (and prana presumably even tho i dont hear the system or them mention that). Brother Air did a 9 month fast where he only had a little bit of pineapple juice every second day or something. The idea is that the body can make its own nutirents IF* the body is clean enough, similar to how when fasting, nutrient dficiencies can be rectified and we do not go into nutrient deficiency During* the fast either. I.e the body can self sustain given the change, spare energy and efficiency. Cleanliness is the key to ultimate health in the MDHS and it seems for those who persist with it, have no health issues or illness. I’ve also heard of other breatharians who require either extremely little, to no, food. I 100% believe this is totally possible, not saying that i strive to get there, or see it as in any way enlightened either, but at least, physiologically possible. Oh, Ehret didnt believe in “nutrition”, he really only believed (according to my knowledge alone) in cleanliness and detoxifaction ultimately. I would Love to hear your thoughts on this, and to address what I said and maybe even add a bit. That would make me very happy! I feel excited anticipating it. Thanks, love & blessings Loren and for all that you do Owen:) <3
One question, how can you get a mineral deficiency from a couple weeks on one type of fruit but not get a mineral deficiency on a month long fast? I’m not anti fasting I just don’t follow that logic.
I’ve always been a fan of mono dieting, as I am a 1 and a half year fruitarian, for the same reason that the mono diet gives your digestive track a break from digesting various foods. But!, after hearing your perspective of it, it makes so much more sense to not mono diet. Thanks for this! and Needless to say, Loren, You’re a highly rational genius and I’m glad I’ve stumbled upon you!
I have a question, can a person who just started knowing about veganism start eaing potatoes? Granted they don’t have a problem with eating the same thing over again.
HEY!!!! I totally understand that feeling with the scale. I try and try and not look at it but it wins out. I have felt like I lost like 6lbs already and in reality the scale has said zip. The debloating is real tho. My tummy feels flatter…..Oh well…Another day another potato. Them crunchy hashbrowns loooook sooo good. You are right..it is all about the crunch.
Oh….and def with the new mic….didn’t realize how big of a difference it can make.
Question for the mukbang…..have you noticed a savings in your food bill? Since potatoes are real cheap I would expect a good difference.
All I do is
When I get home from work every nite
I chop up a russet potato and throw it in
The frying pan with butter.
Fry it for about 10 minutes And put some
Chipotle sauce on it.

Loren, I recently found you on youtube( watched about 8 hrs. of your vids over the last few days)…enjoying your videos. I didn’t find any vids on the topic of what type of water you use… Curious as to your take on what type of water you consume: distilled, r/o, tap, remineralized r/o or distilled, etc.?.. Some say the entire worlds’ water supply is polluted in some way. And on a side note, I’m curious if during a water fast, if it would be ok to have a squeeze of lemon or lime or something in the water… it can get very bland…but it’s certainly not a deal breaker in any case (lol). Thank you in advance
Hi. I have PCOS. I did keto diet and I did lost a lot of weight but I LOVE FRUIT. Drs tell me fruit is not good for me because Glucose.
I already ate potatoes for 2 months and my plan is keep doing until at the end of this year. but my problem is my skin is super dry for few weeks until now and I feel very ichy. Do u have any solution to help me. I always wake up middle of the night and during the day I better crack on my body so hard. I’m not sure it’s because of potatoes or I didn’t get used to in USA weather coz I’m come from Thailand for 2 years but it’s just happened.
Not gonna lie! I mostly want to do this to emulate Penn Jillette’s results ������
Do you think that the original 3lb lost was due to water b/c of no salt?
parasites also create cravings for certain foods. If i listen to my body i would be eating chicken burritos all the time, i think mono diets are good short term.
You are a breath of fresh air! I signed up for the “Potato Reset Jumpstart”but when I click “submit”, nothing happens! (10 minutes later, I just got the download. I guess it did work after all. Thank you!).
I have a running conversation with a relative of mine, where I tell her “potatoes and all tubers are perfect human food.” And then she says, “potatoes are a high-calorie food, therefore they make me fat, therefore I shouldn’t eat them.” She will eat potatoes, and proceed to top them with milk and cheese, gain weight, and then honestly believe that it’s the potatoes that are the problem. She’s been so deeply indoctrinated by misinformation, she cannot see the reality. This is the state of mind most people are in, and I have not figured out how to get through to them.
Hi Jeannine!
Inspired by Andrew Taylor and his SpudFit-Challenge, i started to do so today. It was…”ok” so far, i’m not a great cook and have to get used to prepare potatoes.
I cooked about 6-8 pounds and made mash with half of them. (half of it is for tomorrow) The only seasoning i had was a bit of salt and chili/garlic-powder. So the first experience was kinda bland:D So the motivation already went pretty low.
Now i found your video and even though Andrew has a few recipes in his book, yours look more appealing to me 😉
I think i have to bake them more often instead of cooking, and i have to get a feel for the seasoning.
But your video got me motivated again, so as a first thing i instantly ordered a George Foreman Grill:D
Thanks for your video/channel, i’m looking forward to seeing more of it!
I’m all about my loose pants!!! Yes, I’ve lost 10 lbs, but knowing my pants almost come off without unzipping them makes me happy! You’re doing so awesome!!! ������������✌��������
Hey mate here’s my potatoes song https://youtu.be/_uN0NEi5qjk
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.
Hi!!I am hooked!can you please tell me how to do it?do we eat any greens with it or just potatoes?can I have as many as I want?I am scared I am going to pute more weight if I do lol
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?
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
I’m in Beths account. I hear my sweetheart Beth in the background. I remember that crazy twitching on ur watermelon juice feast. We are both learning from this experience. I Love you Beth. Thanks Loren.
Retired the George Foreman?? Your new grill looks awesome!!! I love your new glasses and that belch at the end was the perfect ending LOL.
thank you, & re a squeeze of lemon or lime in the water during a fast? good or bad…1-10 ( 1 absolutely not, 10 absolutely )?
Common table salt is sodium chloride (NaCl). Potassium chloride is also a salt, but it replaces the sodium with potassium (KCl). Potassium has less of an affect on your blood pressure as compared to sodium, which is why KCl is recommended for those with high blood pressure.:-)
how much potatoes do you have to eat, Is it a half pound potatoes in the morning, half pound for lunch and a half pound for dinner??????
And are you allowed to eat vegetables???
Thank you.
i need to eat 6.6 pounds or 3kgs of potatoes a day on this diet to not be hungry
So when you made your potaotes you put mustard ketchup made soup with other vegetables and seasoning? I thought it was supposed to be plain potatoes with nothing on them? I think you did a fantastic job!! Just wanting more info. Thank you so much!! Way to gooooo!!��
On this diet. Are you taking any supplements like vitamins, fish oils or any other foods besides potatoes? Also what are you drinking? I know cutting out sodas and juices are obvious, but I know drinking straight water, coffee and tea unsweet for months would get dull.
Your glasses are cute. You look younger and younger. Way to go!:)
If I did this thing for a month how much weight do you think I would lose
Can u eat ketchup and do u have the recipe to all the potatoes u ate. I am 5 foot even and I had four kids my baby is 10 months old I am 220lbs I really need help loosing weight I would love this if it worked. Do u gain all weight back once u start eating regular healthy meals or will it stay off? Sorry I am asking so many questions I am just so curious if this really works.
I came for the potato title and stayed for the BOSTON TERRIERS:) Love them.
No, you won’t die eating only potatoes but you will not get all the nutrients you need to be truly healthly either. Also, those athletes didn’t eat just Potatoes they got nutrients from the fruits that they ate and the second guy didn’t eat just Potatoes either.
Total inspiration ����I’m starting today lol been researching for a while. Love those spuds �� great job on your journey
I think I will spray a little spray butter just to get started. Or salt. To start. I have to lose weight quickly to get my dress to fit properly for grandson’s wedding soon. 3 wks
I love potatoes. especially sweet potatoes. I can’t wait to see how this ends up for you. I would gain 20 lbs probably.
Loren, do you still fast? Just curious because of how clean and low calories you consume. Love the video and appreciate you sharing your knowledge. Thanks
I looked the potato reset online before I found your videos and did the first whole week with potatoes with nothing added, black coffee, plain green tea, and lots of water. I lost thirteen pounds but I didn’t do it right �� honestly I don’t know if I could do it without caffeine but I’m going to try now.
If you consider Dr. McDougall’s reference to one of the first potato experiments with the 2 athletes in the 1920’s, they had to add oil to give them the energy. (not that oil is the answer) Anyhow it seems like you are referencing some deprivation feelings so moving into Dr M’s more balanced diet may move your weight and fun and energy to where you may want it.
Can I eat the potato along with the water I boiled it in? I usually pill the potato before boiling.
Was that ketchup and mustard that you used? I’m new and want to try the diet but I don’t know if there is a special kind of mustard and ketchup that you can use for this diet.
Hey Spud, a question… just say you eat just potatoes, and you want to load up with a bit pf protein. What could you suggest?
Kristin you are a very beautiful young woman, and i wish you all the best!
How did u not have major constipation? Starches bung u up surely
Did the potato cleanse for a week, was amazing ������������❤️❤️❤️
Muscle twitches. She was probably flushing out electrolytes, particularly sodium. Same thing happened to me. I would have to agree. The so called island diets is just another fad.
You did a great job on the Potato Reset. Thank you so much for making it available…
Hi! I just came across this video and I want to do this but I have high blood sugar so I was wondering if potatoes are safe for that? Like will they increase my blood sugar?
So if you think that about islands why is it different than water fasting? Water fast is also mineral and nutrients deficient
I started cooking and the potatoes were so plain I got full after half of one
20lbs 60 days on 20 potatoes a day? I lost 30lbs in 1.75 months on an all meat diet. It takes 28 potatoes a day to meet the daily protein requirement. Your facts are way off.
People who think this is bad are idiots. A long time ago, potatoes were a huge staple food because they were easy to grow, abundant, cheap, filling, and nutritional. If you are low income today, potatoes are still a staple food. They’re a complex carb. Naysayers, give me a break. Diets like keto and low carb are so bad for you. I tried keto and felt starved to death, and I gained weight in excess of my starting weight after I stopped eating keto. Carbs sustain our body!
Great video! I have a question; i want to start a 3 meal a day potato only diet. I want to lose belly fat for the next 3 and a half months. Can I boil my potatoes and eat them cold? And will this diet work if I drink coffee every day and also if I eat my potatoes with onions? I guess it isn’t a potato only diet but does it defeat the purpose of I eat kale, cucumber, boiled eggs and ovocaddos with my potatoes? I am addicted to fast food and feel that without the other foods I mentioned I may not be able to eat potatoes every day.
I don’t understand you contradict yourself so much all the time
I can’t believe this is a real thing. Potatoes have been my favorite food since I was 3. Unreal.
Where is that cool hashbrown griller from? That was a good idea to use it for potatoes!
Hey Kristin! I hope you don’t mind me asking this, but I want to know if your chest got smaller? That’s one of my goals for 2018 and this seems like the most convenient way. You look amazing btw!
Do you use any type of spray on the grill for your hashbrowns? Thanks and Blessings!!!
This is my theory. You lose fat out of the fat cells, this fat is replaced by water which weighs more than fat. Eventually when your body is ready it release the water and then this shows up eventually on the scale, so if you maintain or even gain a few ounces you’ve actually lost fat because it has been replaced by the heavier water. I think once the body realizes it no longer needs that fat cell it will get rid of the cell and the water and then this will show up on the scale.
PLEASE RESPOND
I think I’m going to start the potato diet and I was wondering how many potatoes and a can a person eat & does it have to only be regular potatoes �� Can it also be like red potatoes or sweet potatoes etc.?
I’m getting a little tired of potatoes so I just added malt vinegar and it helped me a lot…I so love your methods of cooking and your method tips so very much…Did you ever hear of mashed potatoes and sauerkraut and gravy together? It’s an old diet and dates back to the eighteen hundreds and just mix it all up and you will never be hungry in eve…I have the old diet dish every once in a while and use gravy in packs or if you use brown gravy can use the one in the jar but you can use country or brown gravy BTW Elvis used to eat it
I stoped drinking coffie 10 days ago and it was harddddd but now i feel great. I want to try the potato diet
Why do you have to eat 4 pounds a day? Why not eat the least amount you can for calorie deficit? Isn’t the idea to get resistant starch in your gut? I don’t think it needs to be 4 pounds worse. LOL
Excuse m Hannah! I did a91 day juice fast and it was purifying.
You’re doing great. I can’t tell a difference with or without the mic.
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?
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
good video!water is so important.i just started a watermelon island i needed a little cleanse
Great job! I’m right there with ya, I’m full o potatoes ��❤️
I need to lose 50 pounds need your help please how many patatos did u eat in 1 day. thank you
Potassium chloride is salt substitute. I doubt you need more potassium!
First of all I like you already because anyone who loves dogs,your Boston’s are adorable! I’m Roberta I’m 60, I’m very obese, and I’m on my 2nd day of this, all day I want a banana, picked one up and put it back 3 times, walked my Jack Russell/Pug pup, went swimming and I feel so drained. Trying to eat this bowl of sweet potatoes with cinnamon. I know I messed up today, ate green beans and veggie crumbles, mustard is great on potatoes.
First comment! Ayeeee ������

I just found your channel!! My burning question: you’ve been diagnosed with Hashimoto’s……One of the big no no’s of Hashimoto’s is Night shades. How are you able to do potatoes without your when body becoming inflamed and aching??? I too have Hashimoto’s, along with other autoimmune diseases. I have been watching a ton of mono diet videos and would like to start a 2 wk regimen. I’ve been on a portion control weight loss journey since January, and have lost 59.5 pounds so far. What can you tell me that would ease my mind, if I were to do a potato reset??? Thank you.
Isn’t the idea to eat either boiled or baked only, no seasoning or anything? Just curious bc I’m thinking of doing this, I need to look 60lbs minimum and am looking to reset my taste buds and jump start the weight loss…
I am curious if you know your blood type? What are your thoughts on Eat for your blood type?
Is it possible to lose weight by adding salt to potatoes in the microwave play been eating 5 lb a day and I feel like I’m gaining weight

Hi. Your George Foreman grill, is it ceramic, and can you send me a link to which one you have? Thanks!
I thought fasting was crazy until I did some reading. The only Diet I truly think is crazy after reading and studying is calorie restriction.
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.
Hey if i eat hash browns daily but i cook them in avacado oil is it healthy? Or bad for the heart?
I know this is probably a dumb question but I’m starting my potato diet tomorrow and I was wondering if you were allowed to eat sugar free gum?
Oh my gosh, I can’t wait to make those hash browns you made.��
I’m soo confused. My Dr said stay away from all starch especially potatoes they are the devil �� I’m going to try
When you did this diet, did you experience any water weight issues with eating the potatoes?
Oh my those hash browns look wonderful! Do you any oil when prepping them?
00:00:23 Is that the crazy dude from the SAW movies talking in the background?
I received one of your short sleeve tees with the weapons of fat destruction on the front. I’ve worn it twice and both times someone made a point of complimenting it. I really like it. High quality in all categories. Thanks so much.
how are you feeling these days. you are looking weaker compared to when you were on spuds?
Are you always pooping? That’s why I couldn’t do this diet. Too many bowel movements.
Is sweet potatoes counted? Can I just have sweet potatoes for 30 days?
Can we airfry potataoe, after boiling cooling down a day before air frying..?
i use mono eating as like eating a salad but eating each ingridiant in intervels like2 cucabers wait 10 minuets and then the tomatos and so on mono eating is fine but i dont follow it fully i do eat mixed foods
I love fried potatoes. If I fried a potato in coconut oil would that be considered cheating?
Thank you for the potato reset guide! Really looking forward to that!
Thank you for making this video, Loren. I so agree with you! I have heard that some suggest eating greens while eating a mono fruit diet, which would be preferable to eating just fruit.
Yeah, but no. This is exactly like people who cook a dish swearing that they followed the recipe, but claiming it didn’t come out right… then they add on, “It called for a teaspoon of salt, but I thought that was too much, so I put less. Then I substituted butter for the margarine….” You get the idea. Kinda like trying to go keto while still drinking sugary drinks. Do the diet or don’t. There is no in between.
I wonder how many subs I’ll lose for the last clip? #sorrynotsorry
So what kinds of condiments do you suggest? Are they oil free based?
How much weight did you lose in one month on the potato diet?
I started my spud fit challenge today and im hoping to do it as a life style change
This dude should be on TV as some kinda game of thrones show….
Maybe you should check out the dexa scans from SpudFit (Andrew) before making the statements about losing muscle…
I would love to try this, but I’m sensitive to potato starches. I get blotchy and hot when I eat too much. I don’t know how I could go more than a couple days.
I love this vid Loren! Time to talk about fast number 3 soon!
I dunno how long I will last but today is my first day and I’m already sick of potatoes lol. I mean I’d rather not eat anything than eat another potato. I’ll keep going and try to last 7 days.
I followed your weight loss journey when you first started it. Impressive that you’ve stayed the course still. Great job.
I love the new glasses….and the belch made me love you more! Keep those laughs coming!
Yes. it helps. your talks r informative and with good reasoning.
i like mono meal, sometimes, and only for a day: )
Mate, ya must be destroying the dunny. It’ll be like lobbing bricks at it all day ay ��
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.
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
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.
Get it!! Nice, I have been meaning to do this. Just to reset my body and think about why I eat the things I do and just focus on the discipline of eating only potatoes. Any tips for staying disciplined?!
When you shredded the potatoes for the grill, were they raw or cooked?
GREAT explanation why this works. thanks I’m going to try this diet.
I just heard about this a week ago, been doing a lot of research and I will be starting it in 1 week
This is my favorite part of the video…it always brings a smile to my face 3:36
Whenever I watch this girl;s videos I think of the cheesy potato lady lmao.
I was wondering if it is okay to eat spinach and broccoli with potatoes for the potato reset??
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
Hi Loren:) Im glad you are here for us! Thank you! I wanted to ask you about white half moons on nails… is that a sign of toxicity or being unhealthy… I read many different articles etc so not sure if that’s not a b.s lol
What about the Japanese sweet potatoes? They are so delicious I could easily eat way more of them than just plain potatoes…Thoughts??? ��
People need to go check out saltyshellback here on youtube. It was about 4 years ago…He did the potato diet for a week. Cheese, sour cream, fried his potatoes etc. Lost 4.6 pounds. Fat will just accelerate weight loss. No need for bland crap. I’ve done it a few times like he did and lost 3 pounds at least each week. It was enjoyable and I wasn’t starving.
going to be doing a potato diet when I’m back from holiday! 30days has been my longest
This was taken from an article on BBC news about living on one type of food if forced to. The article discussed a ship wrecked family surviving eating sea turtles. It then looked at single foods including mushrooms.
“Potatoes
Nutritionist James Collier says the spud is the “one food that contains most of the nutrients humans need, albeit some in only small amounts, but (if stored correctly) potatoes could help keep you going for some time”.
“Potatoes are rich in carbs, potassium, vitamin C, folate, magnesium, protein and some essential fatty acids.”
Plant-based diet proponent Dr Michael Greger, from NutritionFacts.org, also plumps for potatoes. “If you only had one food and you had to go months or a year, probably white potatoes even though they’re not the healthiest food. You’d go blind from vitamin-A deficiency and all sorts of horrible things would happen, but you’d be alive.”
Download BBC Sounds to listen to All Hail Kale”
I’ve not heard the bit about going blind from lack of Vitamin A before
hey i think your potato hack is cool but this video is stupid that is not how satiation works your stomach doesnt need to be full the only requirement for satiation is nutrients which proves this entire hypothesis wrong for you should strive for most nutrients from the least amount of bulk so as to not have the digestion system working over time i feel your hypothesis would lead to digestion [problems 20-30yrs down the road
Good q by him but not an issue. I put down 2 kegs of potatoes a days and I don’t put on weight
Thanks so much for all your wonderful videos. You totally inspire me.:) And I’m seeing results following this plan.
Ur soooooo beautiful darlin. My bday is may 29th. I’m gonna start my sweet potato diet tomorrow ��
Twitching is just a symptom of detox! you have to go through feeling worse before feeling better if you want to heal at a deep level.
What about calories? I need around 2600 per day. That’s a lot of spuds….
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!
are we then more likely to develop a deficiency while mono-eating than while fasting? thanks for your info.
i really want to do this but i get constipated easily so is it okay if i would eat some nuts just to help my problem?
Loren, I would like to fast for heading purposes but cannot take off of work. I have done many 3-4 day day fasts but none long enough to get the full benefits I seek. is it possible to fast for a long time and heal, all while working full time? (I deliver food)
I didnt catch the spices you were using. Starting my potatoe reset today, so would like to know what I can use to flavor them. Thanks.
I love potatoes! Hopefully, I don’t get sick of them. I’m trying this instead of the water fast. I’ll do that later.
what way can u eat potatoes can u add pepper n salt to them oven baked or boiled in water
This sounds like an interesting challenge. I really need to lose a lot of weight. I have fibromyalgia and gained over 100 lbs. while on Lyrica and Cymbalta. I no longer take them but now have the struggle to lose the weight. I’m trying to talk my hubby into going vegan with me (I have a few friends who are urging me to give it a try) but he loves his meat so probably won’t. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thanks for your hardwork. And documenting. Did you have any problems? Any side effects? Iam thinking to do this challenge.
Can you not blend bananas with water to increase their water content? Or just drink more water?
I am currently just under 140 lbs and I’m 165 cm tall. I have a problem with binge eating and I am hoping this diet will help me overcome my problem. I don’t want to become overweight with the eating habits I have now. I will try this method for a month and see where it takes me. I want to change my diet to plant based and stop eating processed foods or dairy completely. I am hoping this change will bring my food struggles to the end. Thank you for sharing
I wish potatoes weren’t such a pain in the ass. Scrub, peel (or don’t peel, whatever), chop, boil/saute/bake. Bleh. I’m so lazy lol
the most successful potato diet was done by Andrew taylor from Australia
most stupid diet ever when will people learn that eating to much of one thing for so long doesn’t do the body any good the problem also lays with when you return to eating other foods again just see the wieght pile bk on fact! all these diets that say don’t eat this don’t eat or drink that is pure pish! As long as people are eating a fresh variety of fruit meat dairy products fish ect including nutts ect our bodyd get everything it needs cutting out certain foods can be more harmful to the body which most people know! simple eat well live well live life long. eat too much crap including crisps sweets processed foods the wieght piles on fact! most diets out there don’t work fact it’s people’s choice how they eat truth don’t follow diets and make your body miserable have common sence think what your putting in your shopping basket and meal ideas as it’s about portions of good your eating and what you eat!
there is nothing more psychotic than people and food. good video
I use light ranch that doesn’t have cholesterol in it,to put on my potato…is that bad?
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.
Right……. eating only potatoes is NOT restrictive….. sure. People, this is BONKERS. Just eat healthy. Not high this, low thatjust feed your body in a nourishing and mindful way, whatever that looks like for you.
OK fuck it. I’ll try the potato diet.
Also, are you like 6′ tall? You looked good to start with
I adore your intro! Can you please tell me how/where you made it?
Can you please share how you make your mashed potatoes? Sorry if you have already. Do you put any spices or broth? How do you mash them? By hand or with a blender? Thanks! ����
what is that exactly? The mono diet corresponds to the ingestion of a single food, often a fruit, a vegetable, or a complete cereal, in all its possible forms (juice, puree, compote…) for up to three days. For example, many apple, carrot, celery, cherry or rice mono diets have emerged in recent years.
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. ��
Hi Loren, thanks for this video! I have been watching you for the past week and a half. I am soooo very happy that I found YOU! I would like to come there to do a water fast, but it is impossible. But, I have gotten great information from your site, so I will do a fruit fast for two weeks.Thank! 57 year old southernlady in hot Jefferson SC
I have started to eat only potatoes, sweet potatoes and spices in order to cure my binge eating and stop obsesssing about food about two months ago. I stopped obsessing, but still binge eat, eating >3000 calories of potatoes, sweet potatoes and spices daily, which is far too much for me. Unsurprisingly, I have gained 6 kg as a result:( I wish Andrew was right on this one:(
If anything, the MONO DIET is not very “new”. I heard about it some 40 years ago and it was at least decades old then!
Glad to see you havent gone carnivore like everyone else on youtube. ��
Who’s watching this in 2020? Today is the first time I’ve watched this since it was uploaded, I noticed that my eye lids look so red! My eczema was so bad then! Check out my newest potato diet series in Jan 2020, I’m eating nothing but potatoes for the entire month! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLGuqo-4-es9ORfd2zwXses1dvOKB07ADa
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.
Eating only one of any food can give you those results LMFAO ��
Just another question: since everything is low fat, how did you complete your daily fat intake? I’ve seen many videos on this diet but no one really explained that part. Thank you!
Love your videos, new subbie.. sn: you look like mariah carey in this video
Could you say what each of the foods are, my wife is on this diet and Im looking for ideas of what to cook her.
Good luck with your weight loss
Waiiiiit a minute!! Did eating potatoes make your hair like that? If so I’m startin a potatoe garden your hair is gorgeeeeeeus!!!!
Nice vid. But oh boy that wind…. Maybe I shouldn’t have listened with earplugs lol
I did a lot of mono diets,but I really do not know how to maintain my weight.Anyone knows how should I eat or what,after a mono diet?
I would like to try this. For several reasons I think it cannot work for my breakfast. Whereas for lunch and dinner I think I will be fine. What do you reccommend for breakfast? (I usually eat biscuits or croissants with a coffee)
Decided to start today. Thank you for sharing your experience.
You inspired me to start my own channel! I posted day 8, and so far I have lost 8.6lbs. Keep up the good work ��
Great video. You deserve more subscribers and now I’m hungry!
Headline 30 day potato diet then you blah blah blah throughout the entire video. Click bait and annoying.
i need 3kgs of potatoes a day to be full, and i use minimal butter to cook them in, i dont find i need more then 3kgs of potatoes wen using butter and i cant see it affecting weight loss
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.
wow loren this make so.much sense! i did a melon.island (galia melon) for a couple.of weeks, before that i ate almost only melons because they where easy to get and i love them..but…
after doing this for a couple.of weeks.i notice weight gain.. i decreased my intake..but did not lose anything. before this all i ate a lot more calories and i was asking what was happen to.me?
now that i ate less calories..i gained?
The only thing that i could think of was.. missing in fiber!
melons contains a little little fiber and i think the body needs energy to proces fiber (we can not digest) and so it spend.more energy..
on the mono melon island my body does not had to.do.a lot of work for digestion.. maybe that is the reason i gained weight? or a leak on nutrients?
I want to watch this series. Can you make a playlist? I cant find the videos
I bought instruction from Woo&Pep website and I learned about diet much more.
In the past I would experience muscle twitches when binging unrestrained on junk food more than a few days in a row. They weren’t severe or numerous, but annoying. This was mostly triggered by high consumption of sodas, energy drinks, cakes, pastries, potato chips, chocolate bars, i.e. the greatest ratio of high calories low nutrient content (particularly mineral) (not to mention high toxicity). Indeed such foods are the greatest mineral leeches of the body not only by being devoid of mineral content but no other foods acidify the body like these do (only by eating these things consistently can I experience a general condition of an acidic feeling of saliva in my mouth).
I found that when going back to my more regular diet from these acute junk foods (regular diet still being far from ideal) a vastly elevated interest in salads, greens, avocados for a few days, or in some cases even a couple weeks. Without such a huge intake of garbage I actually naturally have a very low interest in things like greens and avocados. In fact in my forays into eating mostly fruit and veggies, I found my interest in green things practically non-existent (though I would assume it would go up and down over time). The body seems to know what it wants, when it’s running low on certain things.
All very interesting stuff.
Stay Positive and Beautiful, Blessings upon you and your family! Love and God Bless America! Uncle Jeff!
Hi Hannah. I’m trying the potato only diet and I’m on day 5. Since day 2 I’ve been experiencing a ton of gas �� and some bloating! Did you experience this as well? Or has anyone else? ��
Can a water fast cure my sever constipation/hypothyroidism? I gained 15 pounds in a matter of 4 days eating very clean and exercising. What do you think this is due to?
fuck i thought this vid would be a summary of the 30 day diet.. but this is just a waste of time
Those diagrams remind me of Leonardo Da Vinci’s famous anatomical drawings ��. Great video, mate!
Use the fit of your yoga pants to judge, maybe. I can’t use the scale. Hate those numbers. Lol, eat gluten put on 6kg one time. Before I found out I had celiac gene. Have you been tested for the HLA genes? ����
What’s difference in mood when you were eating just potatoes compared to when you are eating varied vegan diet
Potatoes make me tired and sleepy. Boiled or steamed. Can anybody give me advice to lower the tiredness after eating them as I know potatoes are healthy. They make my skin clearer.
Honestly? it was ok for you to do this all Potato Diet for a while….but you seem to not be ok with it no longer and i do think that a wholefood Plantbased diet is much better for you. <3 and has no Guilt either.
What’s worse than a keto fad diet fanatic? A vegan fad diet fanatic. Fanaticism and extremist convictions are dangerous and very destructive. Both groups are dishonest, hypocritical and vindictive. They both believe their convictions are the “real truths” and in their delusional fantasies, they forget that there is more to life than what you eat.
hi loren! great video! can you make a video talking about how to maintain your weight from fasting afterwards? like the precautions/diet/etc? thanks x
If she did it properly without the tuna and fat she would have lost more.
I came to YouTube to learn about an all potato diet. I was really hoping to find some great information from someone. I fast forwarded thru 3 of your potato videos and OMG you gave no helpful information whatsoever. You are just talking to hear yourself talk. I wish I could get the time back that I lost skipping through your terrible “vlogs” and now I’m wasting my time telling you how annoying you are.try editing your videos down and get to a fucking point for gods sake. You are a waste of YouTube space. Thank you.
The Irish and English governments were run by demon free masons. That is how slavery and everything terrible came to be. damn the free masonry
I’m on it 6 months so far,…….I found out that avocado mayo is only 1 pt per tabsp……..so I’m using that as a dip when I get in my craving benges……..not a weight watcher fan, but figure they know more than I do on fat content…….and season with basil, and hot sauce on other craves…….just thought id throw that out there……..really admire you………I got tired of worrying about what I eat, cong heart failure I have………and fill real tired all the time…..but bp is always good with new potato thing……would never be able to run a marathon lol
what is the brand of that red n white electric grill you are using? anyone know?
still fight ing with the scale for the last couple months, going to wait for now till the first of march �� (2 weeks is long for me��). you re going strong with the potato challenge keep it up����. (and without mic is better..)
I have been eating only potatoes for two months already and I am feeling just great. No oil or gravy, just a little salt. I especially love sweet ones. No problem so far.
there are lots of people who have done the diet. your not the first
Congrats on your 4.2 lb’s to date! Still an awesome achievement. Have you done measures too? Never weigh your self esteem!
I am attempting to follow this keto diet plan here

Excellent healty living with great dish its important to us.
whats the name of that grill does it have ceramic plates i dont want that black nonstick stuff
+High carb hannah, can I eat airfryer no transfat french fries with no oil and salt to replace the steam potatoes?
You’re so versatile with your spuds. I hate cooking, and spuds are my favourite food. I did this for months before I even found out that potato cleanses were an actual thing! I’m so glad that people are enjoying this wonderful food and not believing all of the anti-carb stuff. Spuds are 98% water, easily digested. You look terrific, but then you looked just as good a bit heavier too because of the distribution of fat, no flabby bits anywhere.
I started January 4th I have lost 15.9 lbs weight yesterday!! I am doing this until at July and see how much weight I can lose!! I love not eating process food!
I do eggs / potato / avocado.
And I’ve significantly lost inches over the last few months, And I’m not even on it straight through.. I just make it a base.
What are you some kind of weirdo liar. You lost nothing you look exactly the same from day 1 to last day. Your an idiot.
helloo!! trying to lose weight and the scale has a power on me, it can make my day shine or not,depends on the numbers ���� i know it’s just numbers, I try to work on this�� ���� ������
You look amazing. I’ve been looking into this. Awesome job! My turn.
Thank you, for sharing your journey!! Appreciate the encouragement. I’m going to try this!
So it seems like the more I eat, the more I put on. Even on a no fat 100% whole food plant based diet with exercise everyday. I have added in more potatoes over the past few weeks and have been taking in more beans in addition to fruits and non startchy vegetables. Since then, I’ve put on weight and have accumulated some belly fat.
so those that do Johanna brandt grape cure shouldn’t? Dr Morse done a 6 month orange fast. personally I think the twitches are just a detox symptom. her body is still cleaning at that point the deficiency talk is too soon to mention but then again depends on the individual and their pre-existing health issues
The only difference with the mic is no background noise. But I’m good hearing you either way.
Loren, I am so enjoying your uploads and what you say is very helpful. Do you have any plans to write a book???
I love the creativity: You yummed the hell out of those potatoes with different cooking techniques and seasonings.
I’ve been looking forward to seeing someone take this challenge on-I stumbled upon you from Sandra’s (LifeOnPlants) recommendation. I completely agree that the scale is not the best determiner of progress. I have to go back and find out what the daily amounts are. BTW your dogs are adorable:)
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.
That’s what I have found, when I go off track, going back on all the potato routine resets my behavior
I need my friend to try this so she wont do gastric bypass.can she eat veg with it for it to work
i am WFPB she thinks its to carb rich…i am 120 pounds
If she’s eating fat for “health reasons” then you need to be FAR more particular about the TYPE of fat she is eating. Mayonnaise and Keifer fat doesn’t cut it.
Are you eating the potatoes right after cooking them? I thought the whole point of the potato reset diet was to activate the resistant starch (cool potato and then reheat) so starches are not absorbed and causes faster weight loss. Also, condiments and sauces are not allowed, it’s supposed to be a bland diet, hence the “mind reset” part of the plan.
POTATO SQUAD! I’m planning on filming a Q & A Mukbang this weekend. If you have any questions you want me to answer please post them here!
