Fat is your friend (Avo, coconut oil, seeds, nuts, lean meat)
Sugar is your enemy (Maximum 2 fruit per day)
Exercise will get easier

If you only weigh yourself monthly, then you'll definitely see the long term results. From what I've heard, when you switch from liquids to solid foods, you will definitely see a slight gain, but I wouldn't worry about it. You're eating, what 600-800 calories a day, right? You HAVE to lose if you're only eating that little.

Thanks so much to everyone who posted. I have cried so much this past week. Hating myself for having done this. I keep trying to focus on the weeks ahead and hopefully changing from wishing I hadn't done it to being happy I did. I just really want a cheddar bay biscuit from red lobster lol ????

I was loose as a goose until I got on soft foods, and then I had the worst Constipation I ever had in my life - like pushing a watermelon through a straw.

Yes, lot of people have. I have not got there yet but hope to lose close to 200 lbs myself.

260 pounds gone. It is hard work, but you can do it. It is completely worth the effort!

There is always someone here who advises to buck the system and yeah there are those just waiting for someone to give them permission to do so.
When you call them out they get angry. Like you are the bad guy.
Love your post!! Excellent!
