Lidia Inestroza claims the starchy spud was a big part of her diet while losing weight.
Losing weight doesn't have to be complicated. Luckily, there are lots of men and women who have gotten into the best shape of their lives by making easy diet and fitness changes to testify to that. One of the most popular types of videos on TikTok involve simple and healthy meals that help people lose weight. A new video courtesy of a fitness influencer has gone viral, and it has to do with an easy-to-make and delicious meal she makes every day with potatoes.
TikToker Lidia Inestroza (@lidia_inestroza) regularly shares content on TikTok about how she stays in shape through diet and fitness.
The mother has gained and lost weight many times, mostly due to pregnancy. She maintains that one simple breakfast helps her lose weight.
"One thing that has helped my fitness journey is keeping it simple and sticking to the same meals," she writes.
While many people avoid carbohydrates, like potatoes, when they are trying to lose weight, she claims they are one of her secret weapons.
"Third weight loss and postpartum," she writes in the video. "The most basic and easy breakfast I ate daily."
In the video she chops about four baby gold potatoes into quarters and seasons them with paprika, salt, and garlic powder and drizzles avocado oil on top. She throws them into the air fryer for 12 minutes at 350 degrees.
She then plates them with two scrambled eggs and a side of sliced strawberries. At the end she takes a bite and nods her head in deliciousness.
There is actually scientific research supporting potatoes for weight loss. A 2022 study found that a diet with potatoes was "effective in reducing insulin resistance and promoting weight loss."
Lidia recently shared another video of one of her "super delicious and easy lunch or dinner." She claims it was another meal that helped her lose weight.
Using a vegetable chopper she dices up a variety of veggies of her choice. She then squeezes lime on top and adds some seasoning. In an air fryer she cooks some halved tilapia and adds a lot of seasoning.
