"That's huge and someone who is on a 500 calorie deficit per day will have a much different experience than you." Maybe they will, maybe they won't. I haven't seen any studies that support that common contention. And I have seen at least one that shows weight loss speed has no real effect on keeping the weight off later. But so few people do keep it off that it's hard to know. Either way, good luck to you and your diet. I sincerely hope that it works out for you.
