Some people complain that starches slow down their weight losses. It all depends how they handle them. If you eat large portions of starches such as potatoes, rice, pasta and bread and you add butter or real mayonnaise or oil in abundance to them they will cause you to gain weight. If you eat them with thought and care like a Diet Master, they will keep you content.
