Presto! How I Made Over 100 Pounds Disappear and Other Magical Tales by Penn Jillette

2.0

In which an obese bloviator narrates his profoundly weird and quasi-informed weight loss. The potatoes thing isn't so much a diet as it is a performance piece. I have no particular concerns about my health, but I'm attracted to the potatoes thing because... what a weird thing to do. Jesus.

Anyway, picked this up out of nostalgia for my adolescent fandom, and I wouldn't recommend this to anyone else.
