I love it. It's good ingredients, easy, lots of flavor options, tastes good, fills me up, and gives me the steadiest energy levels I've ever experienced (probably due to low GI). Also, customer service is always responsive and helpful. I recommend it! I work 12 hour night shifts in a hospital with not a lot of time to eat…

If you're trying to lose weight, why are you increasing your intake of calories? You should be increasing your calorie deficit.

If his doctor told him to go on the Mediterranean diet, it likely was due to the health benefits of that diet. It is not really a weight loss diet as much as one that research has shown promotes longevity. I would not assume that weight loss is the only important aspect to changing one's diet.

I stopped having so much nervous energy and anxiety attacks throughout the day. I stopped getting headaches from withdrawal when I waited too long to have my first cup or failed to drink enough. I basically realized that I'm actually a much more calm, stable person than I thought after drinking way too much coffee daily…

Talk to your doctor about this, not the internet

Ask your doctor these questions, please. The internet is not going to tell you reliable medical advice, especially regarding the health of your toddler and unborn child.

I love it. I'm a student with a full time job so huel saves me so much time on food prep and makes it so much easier to say no the all the vending machines and donuts brought in by coworkers. I'm also a vegetarian so sometimes finding a good, balanced meal outside the house is difficult so I always have one or two servings…

Honestly? I would suggest changing things that you're not willing to change as your only solution. Learn to like black coffee. Those creamers often have too much sugar and trans fat to fit into a healthy diet. Stop trying to replace actual fruit with juice. A cup of raspberries is half the sugar of your 4oz orange juice,…

This is a habit forming drug. Do not take drugs like this without a medical need. Just diet. You don't need an appetite suppressant. You're hindering your ability to maintain your weight in the long run, anyway.

Gin and diet tonic!! Refreshing, low cal, and it gets the job done!

My favorites: Boca, Gardein, and Morning Star. Tofurkey is amazing for sandwiches. Beyond meat burgers have gotten great reviews (no soy) but I have struggled to get my hands on them in my area.

I aim for 120 ish. I hit it by eating fake meat and mixing my casein with soymilk (I prefer the taste and it adds 10g. I also find myself accidentally at a deficit a lot so the extra calories help). Honestly, lean meat or meat substitute, tofu, quinoa, beans, etc. and a serving of protein powder every once in a while are…

If you are not going to be making changes to your diet that will last the rest of your life, you'll gain back the weight. Cutting down to a drasticly low calorie limit (if you should be losing at 2000, 1200 is drastic) just to lose the weight is going to be a yoyo diet. That is likely why you gained it back in the first…

I used to cook a large amount of food (I mastered flavoring rice and finding the best veggies to pair with the spices), putting it in a freezer bag in portions and freezing them for the week. I nuked servings in the microwave on my lunch break or reheated in the evenings when I was too tired to prepare anything. There are…

Have you been hitting all of your micronutrient goals? It can be hard while trying to eat less. Studies have shown a link between micronutrients and mood stability, among other things. Even when cutting calories, it's important to make sure you're getting enough of all of your micros! Most westerners don't get enough omega…

For me, yes! I spent my life with a huge sweet tooth that would put most children to shame but after going half a year with no sweets (more due to being poor than anything else), cake and candy grossed me out because of the excessive sweetness. I eat pretty clean in general now and feel great because of it. Health is more…

I can't run for more than a block without gasping for breath, even at super slow speeds... not sure why that is.

Ask your local pharmacist, not MFP. Call a pharmacy and they can help you over the phone with any drug related questions.

Something I just discovered: mixing it with plain soymilk instead of water makes it taste A LOT better! It adds some protein, as well. I'd recommend it if you have the extra calories to spare.
