Hey guys,
My name is Raven and I’ve decided to use Huel as a means to fat loss and wanted to journal my experience.
My goals:
In the short term
Go from 200 lbs to 188lbs by July 4th
Long term
Get to and maintain at 180lbs
Method:
According to https://tdeecalculator.net/, my maintenance calories are 2,639. So l decided to eat 1600 cals per day. This will be mostly coming from Huel Black though I also availed myself of a few Huel H&S.
Starting Stats
Date: 05/23/21
Weight: 200lbs
Waist: 34.25 in
Daily stats (recording weight before breakfast in the morning)
Throwing out the schedule for tracking, nice.
If you miss a day or two, or don’t hit the benchmark you set yourself, don’t let that distract you from following through on your goal.
Good luck.
Stay hydrated. Stay healthy. Stay safe.
Okay so looks like I can’t edit replies/comments after a certain period of time so I’ll just be replying to this every week or so with my current progression!
I wish you nothing but good luck, I started a fat loss journey too and I want to be down 40lbs by November 15th. Are you throwing an exercise routine in the mix? If so I would love to know what you got planned for that.
Mostly some cardio (jogging/rowing for 30 mins) every other day with a full body workout (3x10 of bench press, shoulder press, rows, lat pulldowns, squats and deadlifts) interleaved. I’m not going too hard for any of it, just as a preventative for losing too much muscle mass.
I’m going for 2-3 400cal servings a day from Huel (Huel Black and H&S)
The first few days I had some bowel movement issues (probably adjusting to higher fiber) but it’s pretty much done now. Otherwise, I’m seeing some benefit in sleep/waking up where I don’t need a morning energy drink and go to sleep much more easily at night.
