First time I've tried the Ready Made Huel in the bottles (I got two free with last night's order - 14 hours from ordering to delivery is pretty damn good). It was delicious! But a bit too sweet (berry flavour).

I've completed a week on Huel now. Really enjoying it so far. I'm having it twice a day and then lunch and dinner on top. I think the best thing about it is that I no longer crave any snacks and my calorie intake is now in line with where it should be whilst feeling full.
Not had a single chocolate bar binge since
Vanilla is still nice and tasty and buying a blender is a must for the Banana flavour, taste so much nicer now it has a smooth consistency. Will be trying the berry flavour next order I think.
Excellent product.

Im about a week in now and not enjoying it so far, the texture is too thick and bitty. Need to try the blender method. How are you all doing it? Just throwing it in water, powder then blend or you putting ice in as well?
Soldato
I make mine in the morning and leave in the fridge until lunch time. I hear this helps to make it a bit more 'smoothy' like in texture.

I put the water and powder in a jug and use a hand blender to whisk it up. No bits here.

Could someone send me a referral if they have one please, would like to give this a go.

Huzzah, you're welcome. And thank you!

Just... add more water?
I use about 600ml, or whatever filling it up to the rim is. Then shake, leave for an hour or two and drink.

Well it's turned up quick! Ordered at 4pm yesterday, arrived at 10am via DPD. Just the standard vanilla and banana for now, will see how that goes.
The hot ones look interesting though, so might order those next time.

I started my 10-day, 3x daily, Huel-only diet today. Wonder how much weight I will shed...

Sounds Brutal. good luck
Ta, I bet I give up by Friday.
It's mimicking what someone goes through after bariatric surgery (my sister is having it done) so it's sort of keeping her company.

Good luck, the weight will probably fall off!
I tried one scoop, banana flavour and it's quite nice. Like a tool, and ignoring all advice I chugged it straight down and had a lot of wind so won't be doing that again.
Will start properly tomorrow, with breakfast. Going to make two scoops up and leave it in the fridge overnight. I think I would prefer a thicker consistency and drink it slower.

Depends how much you eat the same with any food.
Only just noticed they now do Original in V3 great news that's my favourite flavor.
Soldato
Yeah, I was thinking this. Are you literally having just 3 drinks a day? When I did Huel only for a day, I think I had about 8 or 9 of them by the end.
Caporegime
Yes, 1200kcals total intake, just like a typical gastric bypass patient would have.

Day 3, how you doing?

Fine, managing the hunger OK but the monotony is already setting in with only drinking liquids. I’ve “cheated” this morning and had yogurt/almonds for breakfast but still to the 400kcal value.
