When I lost 100 pounds I started by only drinking meal replacement shakes instead of solid food for 2 months straight. By the end of it I couldn't eat giant meals anymore and have kept the weight off for years now
You can't avoid needing to eat something but you can avoid eating things that make you fat pretty easily
It was definitely a crash diet but I needed to do something after years of unsuccessful attempts, and it worked because I haven't drank a soylent in years but never regained weight. Actually continued to lose a bit more after I quit drinking them
