A key part of weight loss is managing hunger. Satiety index tracks how full different foods make you feel.

Potatoes are absurdly good at this.

You basically can’t over eat boiled / baked potatoes.

I tried this with sweet potatoes once. Best I ever felt. Super boring.

Yeah for real, people don’t seem to talk about this enough in terms of actual sustainable weight loss (maybe because it works or something)

I eat whole cucumbers so that I feel fuller eating less rice and don't need as much snacks. Are potatoes better at it in spite of more calories?
