Hey that's my aunt! Wow Aunt Judy you look great! We've only been able to talk on the phone so I haven't seen your transformation. I love you so much and I'm glad you're doing so well ❤
Eating only steamed potatoes for my lunch at work everyday has given me a holiday from thinking about what to have for lunch at work. Even just one meal a day for the convenience of it is a game changer : )
"That fellow from Australia" is changing lives and SAVING lives. Judy, you look great, and your positive experience shines thru your words. Best wishes from Indiana!

I have done this diet a couple of times and I can vouch for this diet. This diet is just amazing. Every time I did this diet I lost up to 8-10 kg in a month
Powerful interview! I relate so much to Judy’s comment about thinking rich food will lead to a rich life but it’s the opposite. Eating simple food leads to a rich life.
Goodness. I have an insta-pot and steam them in there for about 6 minutes. Then I eat them! Diced with some spices on them mostly. I have discovered the spice section of "rubs" that are intended for use on meat, but they add great flavor to potatoes. Sometimes I use bbq sauce or oil-free tomato sauce, but I use sauces sparingly. The closer to plain 'ol spuds you can get, the better!
@@judybarnett782 ... I've been mostly whole foods, plant based for 40 years, but no one knows how much the eating/food addiction has effected my whole life. It can still be hard, so I love hearing success stories. You will always be part of my success. Thank you for overcoming your nervousness to bring us your story. I'm grateful.
Thank you for sharing, Judy! Thank you Andrew for your messages of hope and for reminding us about what's important over and over again. We need those reminders. Thank you!
Please investigate recumbent tricycles. You could be riding as long as you want as often as you want to start tomorrow. Wonderful story and congratulations. Best wishes.
Congratulations that's wonderful to hear especially the many layers of regaining one's life for finding enriching aspects it could've been closed off to permanently...Andrew be great if you made a book on Amazon with all your work sheets all together in a book that would really help me I just ordered Kiki's journal which was like nine bucks I was surprised it's not her actual journal it's just like a little workbook let me know your thoughts to be awesome I'd love to buy the worksheet book if you created one because I do not own a printer
I look forward to hearing more good news about your progress and if that does the doctor doesn’t give you the answer you want find a Doctor Who does . I’m looking forward to hearing about your mobility improvement love you Judy already I just met you I want you to be able to ride your bike I believe you’re getting better and better
The problem is if they have one mouthful of the wrong food that could be it. Some people have the physiology of a real addict and the food is what they are addicted to so it is dangerous to give other foods a second chance. The problem is what foods (Never gain foods?).
Eat as much as you feel like, as often as you feel like it. It really is that simple. No need to worry at all about how much potato or how many calories.
I wish I could do Starch Solution. I am not diabetic or even pre-diabetic but every time I try this way of eating, my blood sugar drops and I feel tired.
Yes, occasionally. I prefer them baked and then chilled in the fridge. They make a great on-the-go snack when I am in a hurry. Peel it like a banana and eat it cold. It is surprisingly satisfying!
Enjoyed the interview, but seven adverts?!? No one would suggest you shouldn't make money, but as an audience member it's just too much to sit through ;)
oh wow I didn't know there was that many! I don't even know how to change that! I thought it would be just an ad before it started like normal. I'll check it out. Thanks for letting me know.
feel free to ask any questions that this interview raises for you. I 100% guarantee that Judy is someone who did our course and changed her life and that this is an unpracticed interview.
@@SpudFit Knowing that you have integrity goes a long way. I believe you and will watch the video again with a more open mind. Thanks for reaching out.
Thank you Judy for sharing. You're a good chick and condescending petite know-it-alls have no business helping those of us caught in the pleasure trap. When we slip up it's not because we are losers, we slipped up and are not bad people or failures for doing so. We are caught in a trap built in part by commercial interests. Is Medifast same as Optifast? Supposed to get one into a state of ketosis after four days or so. Sometimes the mono diet freakout seems misplaced as the bottled/packaged section of most supermarkets seems a nutritional wasteland. A region dominated by food-like substances awash in corn syrup and/or palm oil and other grease. This seems "mono".
Yeah, it was supposed to put us into ketosis and keep us there. It was all soy-based protein shakes and bars. One meal a day of greens was ok, but never any fruit and certainly no potatoes! The list of chemical additives on the boxes is frighteningly long. It is now revamped as something called Optavia, and before that, it was renamed as "Take Shape For Life." But it's the same stuff.
Hey that's my aunt! Wow Aunt Judy you look great! We've only been able to talk on the phone so I haven't seen your transformation. I love you so much and I'm glad you're doing so well ❤
Your Aunt is a star!
It’s just wonderful to hear of all plant based diets that have literally allowed people to reboot their life ♥️
Judy, you look amazing. I’m so pleased you found potatoes and didn’t have the gastric band surgery.
Yes, I was on the verge of doing so. I am so glad I did not do the surgery!
Eating only steamed potatoes for my lunch at work everyday has given me a holiday from thinking about what to have for lunch at work. Even just one meal a day for the convenience of it is a game changer : )
Love that idea!! So simple yet so powerful 🤩
awesome!
So wonderful to hear from Judy, she's literally glowing with health!

thanks so much!
Thank you for the kind words, David. And hey, I used to live in Indiana, up near Peru. Nice state!
@@SpudFit you are a hero 👏 🙌 ❤️ but I'm afraid to lose my muscles...how to be sure I'm loosing fat and not gain weight easily 💔💔💔💔

"That inner 3 year old" is such a strong and clear image. Well done.
glad you like that, thanks!
Great interview Judy and great results on spuds only! Very inspiring!
I'd love to do an interview with you sometime too Christine!
Christine, you have also been an inspiration to me along this spuddy journey. Thank you for the encouragement.
Thank you so much, Judy, for being so open about your journey. Congratulations! I would like to know some of the ways you prepared your potatoes.
Judy is the best! Thanks for watching :-)

Congrats, Judy. Thanks for the interview.

I was nervous to share but thought it might help someone out there, so I got over my fears. Thank you!

What a great interview! And what a fabulous woman Judy is: radiant, healthy, fun!
Judy is beautiful... inside and out:-)
absolutely! :-)
Thank you.
Such great insights. Thanks for bringing Judy on!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for sharing, Judy! Thank you Andrew for your messages of hope and for reminding us about what's important over and over again. We need those reminders. Thank you!
Always!
You can do this too, and then share your story! I feel like the most unlikely candidate for success at weight loss.
@@judybarnett782 Thank you for the encouragement, Judy!
Judy, you look fabulous!
positively glowing!
Thank you!
I am going to be starting this. I will be doing 50/50 of half potatoes and half veggies.
Good for you! That’s not this diet though, this is only potatoes 🥔 😜
You’re both inspirational. Potatoes are loaded with nutrients hence satiating I think
Very inspiring!
Judy is great!
Good on you Judy. Thanks for sharing your story
Thanks for watching!
Thank you.
Please investigate recumbent tricycles. You could be riding as long as you want as often as you want to start tomorrow. Wonderful story and congratulations. Best wishes.
Great stuff. Really pleased for both of you 👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Wonderful story. Great job! Inspiring.
Thanks for listening
Thank you.
Thank you I enjoyed keep going
My Mom used to buy us donuts after the dentist as a treat cause we did something good... DOOMED!! ....
Awesome story! Thank you for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you.

good idea, I'll add that to the list of things to do :-)
Encouraging story!
Thank you.
Judy how is the Thyroid report. Keep up the glad spirit you’re doing great
Thanks
Welcome :-)
I hope it was a helpful interview for you!
I look forward to hearing more good news about your progress and if that does the doctor doesn’t give you the answer you want find a Doctor Who does . I’m looking forward to hearing about your mobility improvement love you Judy already I just met you I want you to be able to ride your bike I believe you’re getting better and better
Luv it!
Hiiiii I’m back on the potato diet wish me luck! I’m hoping to lose 40lbs 😢 this covid put a bunch of weight on me !!
no luck needed, make it so! spudfit.com/hope-is-toxic/
If I can do this, anyone can be successful with it. Wishing you the best!
@@judybarnett782 I’m trying .. I can’t help but want to drizzle olive oil all over my potatoes :(!!!!
Throw out the oil, don't keep it in the house!
The problem is if they have one mouthful of the wrong food that could be it. Some people have the physiology of a real addict and the food is what they are addicted to so it is dangerous to give other foods a second chance. The problem is what foods (Never gain foods?).
Q1. How much potato should I eat a day to lose weight? Q2. How many calories should I eat a day to lose weight? Please answer. Thanks.
Eat as much as you feel like, as often as you feel like it. It really is that simple. No need to worry at all about how much potato or how many calories.
I wish I could do Starch Solution. I am not diabetic or even pre-diabetic but every time I try this way of eating, my blood sugar drops and I feel tired.
It takes some time to adjust, if you stick with it your energy levels will sky rocket.
Does Judy eats sweet potatoes too?
yep :-)
Yes, occasionally. I prefer them baked and then chilled in the fridge. They make a great on-the-go snack when I am in a hurry. Peel it like a banana and eat it cold. It is surprisingly satisfying!
@@judybarnett782 that’s so cool! Thks Judy for sharing ! Do you like the orange ones or the purple ones?
this was aawsome
she's the best!
Thank you.

I clicked "Skip ads" after 5 seconds and it went right to the interview.
@@christineprevost1878 how do you do that?
@@SpudFit Thanks for taking it in the spirit intended. Hopefully you can find a balance :)
@@christineprevost1878 >>"I clicked "Skip ads" after 5 seconds and it went right to the interview."
She sounds a little too practiced and infomercially with her answers. Raises some alarms.

@@CaliFamous thankyou, I appreciate that.
If you join our Facebook group you’ll see Julie’s posts in there, all the way back to when she first started.
❤Judy
Youve gained weight, you still eat potatoes?
no, she's lost weight. Yes she still eats potatoes and is still losing weight.
@@SpudFit I’m talking about you? Why did you gain weight?
I'd love to see a response video from you about Dr. Klaper's recent video on potatoes that he uploaded to his channel. wasn't exactly favorable imo
I'll check it out and see what happens...
@Peter the NWO Rabbit I've seen it now. trying to upload my response video as I type...
How much weight has Judy lost?
45 pounds/21kg
