One Celiac trying Soylent for the First Time

My husband and 22 yo son found Soylent last December. My husband began dropping pounds despite going out to lunch with our 22 yo son nearly every day. If you had a son as cool as him, you'd want to go out to lunch with him every day too. His nickname is Mr. Awesome.

Since last December, I have tried Soylent about a dozen times. It's good. If I have it for a whole meal, then I crave it for the next.

But now, in April, I'm finally ready to give it a really good try.

The plan:

Soylent, my own custom mix that my husband has put together, for all 3 meals, but only 1,200 calories.

The reason why? There are a few foods I need to eat during the day that I won't give up:

An egg for breakfast (I have bad-low cholesterol, and a real egg helps.)

A salad for lunch. I have leaky gut and lettuce is my antidote.

An apple in the afternoon, crunch-yum.

Tea & creamer before bed

That should bring it up to 1,500-1,800, plenty. I'll write about it. If you're also Celiac, you might be interested to see how it goes.
