My parents did it last year. They found it really hard and Mum said she felt always hungry. After a while the diet isn't so restrictive and they were happier on it then.
They still have a shelf full of shakes in the pantry and use them for a week or so when they have been a bit naughty in the food department. Kind of like a penance lol.
