I have input that is purely anecdotal…

I’m one of the weirdos that jumped on the Soylent train. Love that shit, makes work lunches super easy.

If I mix up, say, a 600 kcal of this goopy nutritional slurry, at the end of it, I don’t fee “full” in the same way I do after, say, a chicken dinner or a trip to McDonald’s.

*however*, I do feel almost completely satiated. The “hunger” has gone away but I don’t feel “full” or bloaty and slow.
