Cocktailing everyday but I need to step it up to twice a day because I'm trying to gain weight.
Hey egglettes,
I made my first shake today and it wasn't too bad - different but not unbearable.
I tried to stick to the original recipe as much as possible but couldn't find wheatgerm oil. My sis happened to walk by Whole foods yesterday and asked them, and she found this http://www.solgar.com/SolgarProducts/Liquid-Vitamin-E.htm which I used instead. I'm hoping it'll give the same results.
My shake was made up of:
Fresh strawberries
Tinned pineapple chunks
1 large free range egg
150ml Alpro vanilla soy milk
1 tsp Crusha milkshake syrup
3 tsp lecithin
2 tbsp wheatgerm
1 tbsp Solgar liquid vitamin e with wheatgerm
I think the wheatgerm may have been a bit too much for me, my tummy doesn't do very well with wheat, or starches like bread, pasta, potatoes, rice so I try to avoid all of these.
Will it make a big difference if I knock the wheatgerm down to 1tbsp instead of 2, or cut it out all together? And can I continue with the oil I have, maybe add some flaxseed or flaxseed oil instead and take wheatgerm oil as caspules during the day?
I know you ladies are all very knowledgeable and will be able to help me tailor the drink for me so I reap the benefits, lose weight and don't get bloated . I'm going to do this every morning from today to 26th March (day before my birthday) giving me 6 months to hopefully see the results such as younger looks, weight loss, etc that everyone else seems to have.
TIA

Hey Ladies!
I have been playing with the idea of starting this up again. I haven't had a shake in almost a year and my hair is still healthy and strong. In fact my hair is so thick that when I pinned it up today I immediately felt cooler around my neck
Well I'm ready to reap the benefits again and pray that I don't gain the weight back. I was so persistant last time I did this challenge that I didn't care that I was gaining weight After 27 pounds it was time to call it quits.
This time around I plan to be careful and if things get out of hand I will stop ASAP!
I'm back in the game starting tomorrow but I will not be using the full recipe.
I believe it was the egg. It really increased my appetite. Now I take my egg in a Weight Loss shake and I'm not having that problem this go round.
