Huel 11:36 - Jul 26 with 8273 viewshype313

Was chatting to a couple of peeps recently about this and listened to Vine yesterday about this replacement of meals, and is apparently excellent due to the fact that it has all the right amount of nutrients needed such as Carbs, Protein and fats.

Anyone on it? I'd be interested replacing breakfast or lunch with one, whilst the weight loss would be beneficial too.

I suppose it's probably alright if you want to pay over the odds for pot noodle.

I've been thinking about using this for a while and after the feature on Vine's show, I'm definitely signing up. Even the sceptic was OK with it. The fact it's being advertised as a replacement rather than supplement/diet tool is clever marketing, though.

Maybe read through these before making a decision

Why not just eat a proper meal with the right amounts of carbs, fats and protein?

Surely it would be more enjoyable having a steak with sweet potato chips and some asparagus, onions and mushrooms?

Or even a spag bol? Curry?

The body needs lots of things, I don't think subjecting it to the same powdered s**t day in day out would be too helpful, not to mention dull as dishwater.

Just eat normally ffs. It's not rocket science.

Agreed, but it's catering for the people that can't be arsed to cook every night, people who spend a fiver on sarnies, crisps etc at lunchtime.

I for one quite like the idea, be ideal for me in the mornings with having to get kids ready etc save time messing about with breakfast.

That's half of your problem, you're seeing breakfast as 'messing about' and making lunches as 'can't be arsed'.

If you can't be arsed, then you'll never get anywhere, that's the issue.

Inherrent laziness.

That is cheap. I thought they we double/triple that. Hardly any nutrients in Pot Noodle plus they're fried before freeze-dried.

Maybe a comparison is in order. I'll use Huel for a month and you can use Pot Noodle.

I tend to skip breakfast as I'd rather be earning ASAP.

Using Huel seems to be a better option than a £3 meal deal when on the go.

It's a replacement for breakfast, arguable more nutritious than a standard breakfast, I don't see what your issue is?

It's not lazy, it's about convenience, whilst having a nutritious meal.

You wouldn't be able to eat that four times a day. You'd be too busy on the bog to prepare a fourth.

I've been using Huel since January and would recommend it, i did it for convenience and an easy way to count calories to get healthier in the new year.
Little tip for you - it tastes so much better when blended and left in the fridge overnight (I always make 4 in the evening ready for the following day), also I would get the flavour taster sachets they do to see which ones you like, toffee one is my personal fave

Paying through the nose for convenience but it's basically tarted up equivalents of whey protein.

Meal replacements have been around for years and most are pretty ropey.

My only issue is that one portion can't fit all, you'll have to track all your calories and macros any way just to make sure you're not forcing massive changes to whatever you already eat.

Can you begin to imagine what it would be like to eat something like that everyday for the rest of your life? I cant.

There has to be an enjoyment with food, in its prep and eating.

Start with everything in is raw/natural state, don't add sugar, don't be fooled by time-saving processed cra4p and you can eat a nutritional and varied diet for the rest of your life.

Oh how wrong you are.

I have two children. I manage to make them breakfast every morning, sometimes two breakfasts (that's what happens when they're in the pool at 6am) I even manage to make all four of us packed lunches...nothing complicated, usually tuna sarnies are the time consuming bit, but we're talking a matter of minutes aren't we?

Time management.

So would you suggest your powdered meal has more nutritional and mineral content than say my breakfast this morning.....which consisted of a poached egg, salmon, spinach and a piece of wholemeal toast?

Or my breakfast yesterday which was a toasted bagel with a slice of turkey breast, slice of beef an egg, rocket and natural yoghurt?

And let's not forget who's enjoying their tasty breakfast :-)

I used it pretty effectively to lose weight. Only once a day for lunch as I could quickly make some in the morning and have it over lunch.

Then when I lost enough I stopped using it.

But presumably adjusted what you eat to save dropping back to the same weight again?
