I can confirm that!
I managed to get my weight down to sub-12 stone (fairly light for someone of my medium build and height 6' 1"). Thinking it would be really healthy, I started treating myself to a big smoothie every afternoon and was soon back up to 13+ stone, with no other change in my diet.
I was basically necking a banana, an apple, 3 or 4 strawberries, 6 or 7 grapes, 250 mL of natural yoghurt (and whatever else I felt like adding) every day. If I'd eaten the actual fruit I would probably just have made do with the apple.
I was given a nutribullet as one of my Christmas presents .... I substitue breakfast for a smoothie and I have not picked up weight (you need to substitute a meal with a smoothie and not have it as a 'snack')
I add a ripe banana, an orange, some grapes, some spinach, a carrot, a pear, an apple, mango, brocholi etc etc plus a tablespoon of organic cold pressed coconut oil and instead of topping up with water, I top up with fresh fruit juice (apple or orange)
brilliant, as I am now getting my 5 fruits/veg a day .... in the nutribullet, I get 3 glasses of smoothie, so my children are getting a glass aswell .... brilliant.... if you don't have a nutribullet, buy one
