Huel Black for breakfast & lunch, Huel H&S for dinner

[Pistol999]

Hi, has anyone achieved successful weight loss (male, 17 stone) following a template like this:

B - Huel black x 3 scoops
L - Huel black x 3 scoops
D - Huel Hot & Savoury x 3 scoops

1,800 cals total

Would be curious to know of any success stories doing this, or similar!

Thanks

Hey there, it seems like you’re planning to go 100% Huel! While it can feel motivating to make a big commitment like this, we really don’t recommend diving in 100% because you will not have the best experience with Huel.

I implore you to read this post I wrote to a Hueligan in a similar position to you who wants to go 100% Huel.

Thanks for the post Christian. It’s good to hear how you’re planning to use Huel and the positive changes you want to make. While I appreciate it can feel good and motivating to make large commitments to weight loss and lifestyle change (e.g. building up to 100% Huel), I do have to ask why this arbitary 100% commitment in your plan? I’ve been on the forum for almost 6 years and the amount of people who go 100% for a bit and never return is high (although not all of them, s/o to any 100% Huelig…

As I say, a much better way is to start with one meal and build yourself up to several meals a day. We recommend still having one traditional meal per day.

Hi!

As Tim has mentioned - there is nothing in particular that is special about huel that will aid weight loss (no fat burning additives which are mainly bollocks anyway). However, the ability to accurately know your calorie intake as Huel is easy to measure is very helpful when you are calorie counting.

Use an online calorie TDEE calculator to find out your daily calorie needs then minus 500 calories for -1lbs per week.

Another piece of advice I have is rather than eating 3 scoops each time across 3 meals, try 2 scoops across 4 meals. Eating less but more regularly can help with hunger.
