Eating 500 calories per day is the challenge. It’s extremely hard for most people. The thing about eating potatoes (and I tried it for a week before I couldn’t stand things anymore) is that it basically kills your appetite. The very idea of eating becomes uninteresting. And it seems to go beyond the boredom: even adding seasonings and fried potatoes didn’t make much of a difference.
