That would only be meaningful if OP had accurately weighed and tracked the food, which is enough of a hassle that this would have been mentioned, I think. And without it… you would naturally assume that OP consumed fewer calories, because a significant part of their diet was now a highly satiating low calorie food with resistant starch. That would definitely be my guess.
Good question. As Portia says, I didn’t. The whole point of this is to not use willpower, so restricting calories when you feel like eating goes against that. I didn’t measure, but I’m willing to bet that how it works is that this diet makes me eat fewer calories without actively trying to eat fewer calories. What I tracked, was only things which were “easy” to track, for example how many meals (light, medium, heavy), how many “snacks”, etc. Super imprecise measurements, what was really superizing in the end is despite that, how high and R^2 I could get on my linear model next day (or next few days) weight prediction. Will talk about this more in detail hopefully in a future post.
Did you count calories? Did you try to keep the same amount of calories of the replaced meals, but with potatoes?
