Habitual Review – High Protein Shakes for Weight Loss Tested

Habitual Review – High Protein Shakes for Weight Loss Tested | AD

We all know that the magic formula for weight loss is to be in a calorie deficit. You can achieve this by either eating fewer calories or burning more through physical activities. Though this sounds simple, it’s not always straightforward for people to lose weight even when they are trying their best. A common reason why weight loss attempts don’t work is that people often underreport what they actually eat when trying to track calories. For some, this is due to miscalculation and some people simply forget to track everything they consume. The underreporting means that they are not actually in a calorie deficit which means they won’t lose any weight. To avoid problems like this, you can follow a weight loss plan where the calories are already calculated for you. Here, you can read my Habitual review to learn more about what this company offers.

Introducing Habitual

Habitual have a range of soups, shakes and porridges that can help you reach your health and weight loss goals. The products are nutritionally-complete: each meal contains all the nutrients you need, 19g+ protein, and 29 essential vitamins and minerals. Additionally, they are all very low in calories at just 200kcal per meal. The high protein content will help you stay fuller for longer too. The meals are delivered in single serve sachets for convenience and take just 2 minutes to prepare. Each meal costs from £2.50.

How to Use Habitual

The brand offers a 16-week plan to help people lose weight (and even put type 2 diabetes into remission). This plan consists of a 12-week total diet replacement period where you consume 800 kcal/day using the Habitual products, and 4 more weeks of gradual calorie increase. There’s also an app to use alongside your plan with daily behaviour change lessons to help you learn about the science of nutrition and to help you feel more confident in your decisions. Using the app will help you create long-lasting healthy habits.

You can also use Habitual as part of a less intense diet where you replace 1 or 2 meals per day with a shake, soup or porridge sachet. Then you choose other healthy meals that fit your goal for your other meals. This will help you control your overall calorie intake. There are a few different plans to choose from on the Habitual website. Each plan comes with a complimentary taster pack too. You can also purchase the meals separately or in bundles.

Testing the All the Shakes Bundle from Habitual

For this Habitual review, I have been testing the All the Shakes Bundle. This is a bundle of 5 packs of Shakes in all the different flavours: Strawberry, Chocolate, Caramel, Vegan Vanilla and Spiced Chai. Each pack contains 7 sachets which means you get 35 meals in total in this bundle.

I am not personally trying to lose weight but I am trying to eat more protein and to be healthier in general. I wanted to try the Habitual shakes as a healthy snack alternative to stop me reaching for a quick chocolate bar boost that will just leave me hungry and with a sugar crash.

For me, the Habitual shakes make a great snack addition. To prepare a shake, all you need to do is to mix the contents of one sachet with 200ml of cold water. Shake or blend until smooth (about 20 seconds), then allow to stand for 1 minute before drinking. You can also blend with ice or add zero-calorie syrups or things like cinnamon to mix up the taste experience.

Depending on your calorie goal, you can also substitute some of the water with a dash of milk and add fruit or berries to thicken the shake further.

Habitual shakes are easy to incorporate into your daily routine, taste good and help you stay full for longer. All this together can help you reach your weight loss and health goals. Find out more on the Habitual website and get started today!
