Hey Emily, straight of the bat I’m going to say that we don’t recommend this. Huel isn’t a magic product which is going to be your silver bullet. I written this before, but please read the below.

> I think the key for you will be working towards lifestyle change. Try not to see Huel as a diet that you are either ‘on’ or not on. Huel is healthy convenience food, so build it into a routine with other nutritious foods that you can maintain. A reason many don’t succeed or keep weight off that they wanted to lose is because once they hit their target they go back into their old, more unhealthy habits. So try to find a way to lose weight that doesn’t restrict you from foods and moments you love, but aids the weight loss you want and build that into a new lifestyle.

So the answer to your question of which product, is the one which fits best into your lifestyle.

However, if you were to push us for an answer, Black Edition would be a good place to start. It’s higher protein quantity will help with feeling full.

It isn’t, no. The amount of calories you need depends on your gender, age, height, weight, and activity. Use this [**calculator**](https://www.calculator.net/calorie-calculator.html) to calculate the amount of calories you need per day. Then take 500kcal off to lose 1lb per week, and 1,000kcal to lose 2lb per week.

I hope that’s helpful. All the best to you, and please stop in with any questions you might have!
