If you're interested in trying This One Weird Trick, then the bloggers at Slime Mold Time Mold are recruiting for their "half-tato diet" study: [0]
The "half-tato diet" is one where you either get half your calories from potatoes, or half of your meals are entirely potato. (They allow either variant.) Their hypothesis is that half-tato is much more sustainable for the dieter than full-potato like the article above, and still quite effective for weight loss.
This is all based on a couple anecdotes, but I think SMTM would argue that an anecdote is a promising lead.
