Huel day 1

Hi everybody! I couldn't see a recent thread on this so I thought I'd dive in and make one! I have a number of bad habits that make my weight hard to manage; very early start in the morning (so never want super early breakfast), office with LOTS of snacks, constantly, and working through lunch. So I am trying Huel. I have opened it this morning - nice t-shirt, good packaging. I've ordered the flavour sachets because I read a lot of reviews saying it tastes like bland porridge. I've just had my first 250mL (1 scoop) with chocolate flavour. It's better than many of the protein shakes I've tried in the past. I'm thinking I will do 1 scoop breakfast, 1 scoop snack, 2 scoops lunch and then normal dinner. Also lots of water!

Anyone want to join me? Any success stories?

I've also started having Huel for lunch a few days a week. I use the white powder, and really like the Salted Caramel and the Berry so far - they're a bit like having a thick smoothie. I've found I do need to make them in the morning and store in the fridge for a few hours though, seems to help thicken them up!

I've been doing 5:2 so I have these in work on the three days I'm not fasting for lunch, and anecdotally I've lost a little more weight these past two weeks than fasting alone, so I think the calorie controlled nature of it is helping, and it is really filling.

I've got a £10 off code if anyone wants to try it! huel.mention-me.com/m/ol/ii1tl-1c4b2c5eef
