Xndo Meal Replacement Review

I bought these load of Xndo slimming products before CNY.

I managed to lose about half kg and as expected gained it back within the first few days of CNY.

I know there are some people who doesn't gain weight no matter how much they eat.   Unfortunately, I do not belonged to this group of people.  I belonged to the group whereby swallow saliva also can get fat TT____TT   fml........

I bough Shirataki Noodles to replace rice and instant noodles.

I don't understand why people thinks that bee hoon is less fattening.

For heaven's sake, bee hoon is made of rice.

Back to Shirataki Noodles, basic cooking directions are on the package.

Each box contain 3 packets of noodles.

One packet is filling enough for me, but those who just started with dieting, it's perfectly ok to take 2 packets.  After all, 2 packets is only 6 cal.  Compared to 2 bowls of rice at 500 cal is already a huge cut.

Lazy me sometimes prepare Shirataki Noodles with fried garlic, light soya sauce, some lettuce plus an egg as lunch.

I don't know why Xndo had stopped selling meals with rice.

All meals are with Shirataki Noodles.

Vegetarian Prawn & Chicken Hor Fun with Wolfberries (359 cal)

Savoury vegetarian ingredients with sweet wolfberries.

Taste not bad although I don't really like vegetarian food.

As you can see, ingredients are very generous.

Chili Crab Hor Fun (162 cal)

It was quite expensive but I couldn't remember the price.

 The gravy was surprising delicious, rich but not too spicy.

 Only one small piece of crab meat which was on the metal spoon.

If you want to buy this flavour, need to add in your own fish balls or something -.-

Teriyaki Chicken Hor Fun (223 cal)

I bought 5 boxes and gotten another 5 for free at their promotion.

Yummy, but got more potatoes than chicken meat, 2 pieces of chinese mushroom soft and well braised.

Taste of chicken meat had improved very much compared to previously

Lemon Honey Fish Hor Fun (220cal)

It's sweet and sour but doesn't taste like lemon honey.

Fish chunks weren't as tender as those in Hainanese Fish Rice Flavour.

Added sambal chilli and shallots.

Chicken Tang Hoon (vegetarian 178cal)

When I saw the word "tang hun", I was expecting the familiar soft noodles.

Xndo's tang hun was QQ and chewy.  The taste was not bad but they shouldn't call it tang hun perhaps?

Beef Stew with Mixed Vegetables (148 cal)

Beef stew with carrot and potato cubes with beef chunks.

I ate this with a couple of crackers to complete a meal.

The taste was quite bland, still acceptable as the beef were tender and the veg were soft.

Tom Yum Soup (150 cal)

Don't believe the picture on the package.

Ingredients only like this ~~

-_____-|||

I wasn't expecting a lot as the price was less than $5, I couldn't remembered how much I paid for.  While the soup base was good, the ingredients were just too miserable.  I put in Shirataki Noodles to complete the meal.  Will not buy this again >.<

The above meal replacements may not taste fantastic but are much better than those yucky meal replacement milk shakes.  At least I get to eat a normal meal in much lower cal, if I don't get to eat, I will feel very depress.

Local food are really the most sinful culprit for excessive weight gain.  I gotten a leaflet from Xndo counter which states the cal or some local meals, so just sharing here with my reader:

Approximate Calories per serving for-

Nasi Lemak:  494cal (210g)

Beef Hor Fun:  697cal (481g)

Satay Bee Hoon:  763cal (452g)

Claypot Rice:  899cal (597g)

Mee Siam:  694cal (655g)

Char Kway Teow:  744cal (384g)

Laksa:  591cal (540g)

Nasi Briyani:  877cal (488g)

So much for meal replacements for lunch/dinner, here's something for breakfast also.  I normal drink Milo ko-song in the morning, don't really take heavy breakfast cos' by the time I wake up, it's near lunch time.  I tried Xndo's Morning Goodness series cos' they were having promotion.

Mixed Mushroom Drink (122 cal)

I shaked it in warm water instead of stiring.

Heehee... I like it.  It's savoury in taste, very comforting for empty stomach in the morning.

Multi-Grain Drink (122 cal)

Taste a bit bland but I like it, it's almost like normal cereal.

That's the end of my review.
