Hi @Stew. There aren’t any hard and fast rules when it comes to how little or often you drink Huel.
Probably the first thing to take on board is that Huel do not position themselves as a meal replacement.
You can replace 1 or all meals a day with Huel if you want to (I am currently on 100% Huel at the moment as it happens), but it can just as easily be used alongside your “normal” meals. If you want to replace breakfast with Huel or have it in addition to your breakfast you can. It is very flexible like that.
Given that your aim is to lose weight, Huel is a great tool to help you monitor how many calories you are putting in your body.
The first thing you’ll need to look at is putting your age, sex, height, weight and activity details into a calorie calculator and seeing what your recommended maintenance calories per day equate to.
1lb of fat equates to 3500kcals, so to lose 1lb of fat over the course of 1 week, you would need to create a calorie deficit of 500kcals per day (7x500=3500). The calorie calculator in the link above will work this out for you and also show you the deficit required to lose 2lbs per week, as well as the calories required to gain (which isn’t relevant to you, given your objective).
Once you have your calorie requirements locked down, you can then use Huel to conveniently monitor your calorie input, either in addition to or instead of your other meals per day.
Hope this all makes sense.
