Been lurking, but now time to share my weight loss on Huel

Have any goals @KosmicTea?

Yes! I do have a goal - I’m hoping to lose around 20-30lbs in the next couple of years or so. Right now I’m 5ft1, 170lbs - this is down from 175 at the start of January.

I started Huel just over a week ago and I feel great, I have so much more energy and I really love the taste and different flavours. I’ve got my partner drinking it too - he has a different goal, he’s trying to maintain his weight and snack less. So far there’s been no change in my weight yet, but it’s early days.

I’m currently having two scoops for breakfast, sometimes on it’s own, sometimes with some fruit, then 2.5 - 3 scoops for lunch, and then I’m having a regular dinner worth about the same calories as 3 scoops. My TDEE is around 2240 so I’m trying to go for 1750 daily to help, and I don’t drink very much either.

I do about 3 exercise classes a week and I run twice, and I started to lose weight and really tone up last year, but I stagnated a few months ago and my diet has never been ideal. So hopefully with the help of Huel, and mega motivators on here I’ll be able to reach my goals.

Anyway, you’re all doing awesome work, I can’t wait to hear about everyone’s progress! :smiley:

Well done! Sounds like a kind and balanced plan.
Just tucking into the most amazing dinner of 2 scoops new vanilla, frozen berries and almond milk made into ā€˜ice cream!’ No hardship here:))

I’m aiming for a few days p/w 100% and will keep heuling 1-2 meals per day after goal reached or use it for 5-2ing for maintenance.
Will update fat loss next week…see how I get through the 1st weekend; a race on Sunday followed by nosh out will hopefully balance each other out :wink:

Hi fellow Lurking Huelers,

A quick update 19 days into Hueling for weight reduction.
I am still at the same weight as the initial weight loss which I am very happy with as there was weight gain over Easter, family bday’s , anniversary etc which would normally lead to a minimum 8lbs weight increase with all of the ā€˜celebratory’ heavier or junk foods. So it feels like back to square ā€˜2’ - which is easier to deal with than square ā€˜1’ :smirk:
To get to the next square I need to get the ol’ trainers out to support weight loss by creating a calorie deficit and have 2-3 100% huel days PW. As holiday only 1mth away I’m hoping to have the motivation to release 8lbs by then as the other option is to buy a few wafty smocks and sweat inducing leggings to float around in that reduce the chafing of chubby thighs! :cry:
So overall very happy with the hueling experience - just need to keep on track now and have a holiday plan to have a huel breakfast to keep me mindful of holiday quaffing and if nothing else make it easier to transition back when I return.
Well that’s me - how are you Heulers doing?

Happy hueling!

Hey Anni, thanks for the message and for choosing Huel. Easter can be tough, the amount of chocolate I still have in my house, honestly don’t know what to do with it all! But let’s move on from Easter and all its indulgence! It sounds like you just need to monitor those calories a little closer, are you using anything like MyFitness Pal? The exercise will help definitely get you into a calorie deficit but it’s the deficit you need.

Keep us posted!

Congratulation on your weight loss.
you’re an inspiration and was the post that persuaded me to order Huel. Got my first delivery of Huel a few days ago and hope I’ll be able to do the same.
For the first time in my life I’ve crossed the line from being normal weight to being over weight according to my BMI so I want to loose the 12,5 kg I gained over the last 6 month.
Keep going and hope to see further updates.
