Some people, including myself, have used Huel and other meal replacements as a way to make the calorie counting process during weight loss easier.  Keeping a drink like Huel in the house instead of snacks is an excellent way to avoid cheating on a diet. During the first few months of this year, I used Huel to push through a plateau in my weight loss. I drank only Huel shakes for over a month straight. While it requires a lot of willpower, Huel contains all you need to live.
