[QUOTE="AGC_68, post: 2523852, member: 551237"] No worries mate .. I have it with 500 ml water and 100 ml Almond milk, I tend to add a scoop of plant based, artificially sweetened choc protein powders and some other bits and bobs as mentioned above. It is filling due to the protein, you will produce a little more gas at first but your digestive system gets used to it and calms down after a bit. For a low calorie count it does keep you full and give you enough protein to keep muscle. To lose fat for the long term, you will have to maintain a calorie deficit no matter what you eat. Just keep the protein high, stay active, keep the fats and carbs to a reasonable level so that you do not gain more fat. If you do see yourself gaining fat, cut back on the fat and carbs a bit and keep protein high to keep feeling fuller. If you're in a place with super high BG levels, might be worth going even lower carb at first just to get the BG levels and insulin levels down to normal ranges. Then you can increase carbs a bit and dial down the fat. But in the long term, T2 will happen if you eat too many calories fat or carbs. much harder to eat too many calories with protein as it is so satiating (but not impossible if you really have the willpower to keep stuffing it in LOL)! If you eat low protein foods however, the body will force you to keep eating until you get enough protein. Which means with the wrong foods you;ll take on lots of carbs and. or fats too. That's when problems start. In short I recommend the Huel Black mate .. give it a go. Keep the calories you consume in line with your activity levels.
