Well, I wouldn't recomand anyone to do that from a health PoV, not do I have any guarantee of the reality of the time frame.

But one thing is clear. Every single human can thin himself , and motivate himself to keep the fat off.

Probably true I think, most people can lose weight if they really want to. Of course there will be those with medical conditions that prevent weight loss or make it very difficult, but I think those are the exceptions.

But radical lifestyle changes that cannot be sustained are a bad idea. In the link, a guy lost 45kg (100lbs) by only drinking juice for two months.

If he simply goes back to business as usual, that weight will come right back. It's been my observation that the vast majority of people who lose weight by making sudden, radical lifestyle changes can't stick with it.

It is so. However, too often I hear from ppl that "I can't get my weight down, and I eat almost nothing" Which of course, it's a sick joke. Anyone can loose weight.

I recall reading about Chris Voigt who is the head of Washington State's Potato Commission, who to promote that potatoes are a healthy vegetable went on a potato only diet for 2 months, just potatoes, little oil for cooking and seasoning. He lost 21 lbs and dropped his cholesterol by almost 70 points.

Perhaps not the place, but why does liquifying food help weight loss?
