im not sure but one thing I know is that potatoes really arent a great way to load up on calories by themselves. They only have 4 g of protein and 160 cal. You should add a boneless tenderloin. One serving the size of your palm has like 150+ cal and 22 g of protein. Good luck. ~

What the hell kind of answer is this!?! Potatoes are one of the best carb sources out there. Tons of fiber, high protein (for a carb source), and they just taste damn good! I eat potatoes pretty much every single day year round.

OP, I prefer mine baked, but do whatever makes you happy.

Actually LOL at this - but agree - i eat potatoes everyday and im in peak week at the moment and still have them in there - great source of carbs for me - i bake so they look and feel as close to french fries as possible!

Are white potatoes okay even for contest prep? I was told always to stick with sweet potato.

I eat red or white taters in prep and even more in peak week to help dry out and fill up. I typically eat 1 to 2# of red potatoes the day of competition.

White potatoes have just as much fiber as sweet potatoes and you can actually eat the skin with whites (sweet potato skin = BLECH). Some people will go on about glycemic index in regards to sweet being better than white, but that doesn't apply as much to bodybuilders since we don't eat carbs in a vacuum (almost always with some protein and fats).

I kept white potato a through prep and noe in peak week still using works real well for me no biggie

I don't go by that whole GI mumbo jumbo. My diet is chock-a-block full of nutrient dense foods that I can afford to eat a fricking piece of white bread if I want to (but I don't because I prefer rye, or sourdough, or even plain whole wheat). I rarely eat brown rice anymore as I prefer the taste of jasmine rice.... Now I do love sweet taters, but I do like my baby reds when I want something savory.

I think the biggest key is for you to eat these foods and take note of how your body responds to them. Just because some "guru" says to drop them doesn't mean you should. I find it odd that someone will eat a certain food all throughout their prep and then all of a sudden it's off limits because they "may have a reaction to it"....if you didn't react to it over the past 12 weeks chances are it's gonna be okay.

This is making me so happy that not only me but tons of others likes potatoes too.
Best way to add cards I like mine mashes with sea salt and black pepper and fill the stuffing in a bagel yummy!!!!
