Welcome Egglette Leleepop to our Nest!!!
I hope you can hang in there and reap the benefits,too! Keep us posted. We're here for ya!

 

[shortycocoa]

Welcome to all the new egglettes....we are getting more egglettes left and right...let me find out!!!

Still cocktailing. I think I doubled up a few days this week but definitely drinking one a day.

I know a while back someone asked if we could reference some of our progress pics within the thread or say what page they were on so they wouldn't have to go through the whole thread. I had attempted to do that but got lost in the shuffle. However, it came to me to just use the search function to see where i actually posted them. So here are mine:

http://www.longhaircareforum.com/showpost.php?p=8072681&postcount=3428

I don't think I posted any pics other than these as of yet.

If everyone else who has posted progress pics within this thread can do this, that would be good also for others to see. I know there are several of us that included our progress pics but I can't remember everyone's names to do a search.

I also think it would be better if left up to each egglette whether they want to repost their pics within the thread or even for a new progress thread. I'll try to find the progress thread and put these links in there as well.

I also just finished some late summer/early fall updates for my fotki and I will try to include some of those pics here shortly.

I'm hunting down ingredients for my first shake as we speak.

Welcome Egglette Goldielocs to our Nest!!
This week is hot with new recruits!!
~Hooray~

I'm hunting down ingredients for my first shake as we speak.

 

[LoveCraze]

Ok so I have a quick question. I have been having my shakes without the wgo. When I went to get some at our local HEB, they had them in tablet form and so I didn't want to get those. I guess my question is how important is it to have the wgo in your shakes? Or can you still reap similar effective benefits without the WGO added? So far I am luvin the shaker shaker shakers!!

 

[Br*nzeb*mbsh~ll]

Steph,
The WGO is pretty important. It keeps your hair super-duper moisturized. It adds elasticity to your hair and skin, the efa's in it are critical to growth and retention, it's also a germinating food, which helps your follicles and scalp cells to produce strong, healthy hair. i purchase my Viobin 32oz wgo for about $14 online at www.iherb.com they have great shipping and prices.

I'm sure the capsules are fine, but i you'll get more for your money in liquid form.

 

[Blaque*Angel]

welcome to all the new egglettes

 

[goldielocs]

Thanks for the warm reception ladies!

I just blended up my first drink and it was WONDERFUL!!!

I had:

1 organic egg
1 cup of unsweetened almond milk
2 tblsp raw wheat germ
1 tblsp ground salba seeds (more omega 3's and fiber)
1 tblsp Udo's oil
dash of vanilla & cinnamon

It tasted like egg nog. My husband tasted mine and made some for himself. This is definately a staple for me!

 

[Br*nzeb*mbsh~ll]

Yaaay~ You know men won't touch anything gross, i don't care how healthy it is, lol! Thanks for joining us, Goldie, keep us updated.

 

[Br*nzeb*mbsh~ll]

Brains and beauty, ShortyC, you've got brains and beauty...I was wondering if it would be possible to put them all in one post, but that wouldn't be possible. Like maybe at post #1, if everyone agreed?

i want to straighten my hair and post my progress, too. Only thing, i realized next week is my daughter's and my mom's birthday soirees and i wanna look fly, so i really don't want to do my hair until next week...hmm, decisions, decisions...

I did the shake for the second time today, and I must say I like it. I guess it suits me. I can definitely do this for ten days. I did my regular daily 30 minute walk. I also wanted to add that i purchased the book on amazon for 1.73 and awaiting its arrival. God Bless everyone and hhg!!

 

[Br*nzeb*mbsh~ll]

^Wonderful! God Bless You Too...You're hair will luv you for this, Leleepop.

 

[Br*nzeb*mbsh~ll]

Just cocktailed it - with two eggs - on a weekend, even. Go figure.

 

[shortycocoa]

yay, Br*nze....#1 for having cocktailed it for one year today and #2 for cocktailing it on a weekend and not having your traditional big weekend breakfast! I cannot believe it has been year for you already and that this thread is still going strong and with this many participants!

I don't think it would be possible to put all of them (all progress pics) in the first post UNLESS you added the pics to the post since it is your post and noone can edit a post except for the author of said post. I am still a relatively new subscribed member to LHCF even though I have lurked for 5-6 years, so some of the seasoned veterans can you correct me if I am wrong?

that would be a lot of work on your part, Br*nze, and i think the least we all could do is our part in posting our own progress pics since you did kindly lead us to the cocktail. I am still forever in your debt!

however, it would be helpful to have it all in one place and then people could just add theirs as they see fit or get ready to. one way or another we can figure this thing out.

happy cocktailing egglettes!

p.s. do your hair and post your updates when you get ready....i can wait! re-reading some of your earlier posts I was reminded of the fact that you are transitioning and you're almost done. I bet that feels good. My hat still goes off to all the terminal transitioners out there because I couldn't do it! Would you also say this drink would be an added plus for ladies out there that are transitioning since it may help grow the relaxer out quicker and with all the added benefits like thickness, strength, moisture and shine?

 

[leleepop]

3rd day on the shake and i'm soooo energetic. I had to pull out my hip hop abs to channel some of the energy. I am so excited. I love the shake. I even think i got a little growth. Thanks so much for this info, I love eating my vitamins rather than taking them. hhg!!

 

[Br*nzeb*mbsh~ll]

Thanks ShortyC~ Yep, we'll work it out...Yes, this drink is definitely a plus for those transitioning...it helped my hair texture become soo tame and manageable, it grew out my relaxer in record time, and my hair just has a natural 'glow' - so does my face.

Leleepop~ It does give you a great burst of energy...i thrive on it, live for it, even.
G'nite Egglettes...

October 5th marks my anniversary with the cocktail. yaay!

I'd like to start a progress thread, but that would mean i'd need to do my hair this weekend...hmph.

**also, i reallllly don't wanna deal with the negativity...this forum can get so taxxxing sometimes. oh yeah, there's an ignore button, huh? i need to figure out how to use it.

Wow, I can't believe its been a year already for you Br*nze!! Time does fly by quickly when you're doing something good for yourself that you enjoy. I know you have seen multiple benefits to your hair, skin, and body, in a short period of time. For many of us, the cocktail has become a lifestyle change rather than a new challenge to enjoy for just a few months before moving on. I know that I'll be doing this for as long as I can, with Team egglettes support. Yay, Yay!!!! We can never thank you enough for sharing the wonders of this drink. Tomorrow when I have my cocktail, I'll be toasting to you-Br*nze,-Happy 1 year hair cocktailin' anniversary, darling!!!!!! Here's to milk and eggs...drink up y'all!

 

[Aspire]

Still cocktailing - using two eggs instead of one. Will need to come up with something different though as the weather gets colder. Can't continue to do shakes in the am, I am shivering all the way to work.

Also - I know some ladies have mentioned a slight growth pattern with the girls up front - but really - tell me how I went from a 36C to a 34DD? Hubby is ecstatic, but I am really nervous. When does this stabilize? I really don't need the girls entering the room 2 minutes before I do? And is this permanent? I need to check with my doctor to see if it is safe as far as breast health as well . . .Has anyone discussed this with their PC/GYN? Just curious to see if anyone has any info, not trying to be nosy.

 

[Br*nzeb*mbsh~ll]

Aspire, Wow, is all I can say...I haven't checked into it...If anyone has feedback, please provide. 34DD, huh? An all-natural breast enlargement - that works?

 

[Br*nzeb*mbsh~ll]

Oh my gosh! Today is my one-year anniversary!! I don't think i've ever stayed on a health program this long. Ever. Thanks everyone for the well wishes. It's been great. I feel great. Everyone tells me that I look great. Yesterday I got a gazillion compliments along with questions regarding weight loss. I'm ecstatic.

Thank you to each and everyone for cheering me on my quest. Cocktails fa Life!!!! Cheers~

 

[Stella B.]

Good afternoon ladies!
Cocktailing right now..for some reason it's extra rich and tasty today. I mixed
1/2 cup very vanilla soy
1/2 cup water
1 tsp. wheat germ oil
1/4 cup reddi egg (whole foods)
1/8 cup eggnog for flavor!

It went down so smoothly. I forgot to add lecithin -oops, I'll have to remember that next time for sure. Yum, yum! I made sure to toast ya Br*nze- happy 1 year of high ballin' it on the mighty cocktail! I know we're all in for more amazing growth and progress over the next few years. Hang in there, we can do this together!

i know, my bra's are extra tight again..its strange, i was about to post the same thing.
i don't need any more boobies.
i need to get re-measured.
it seems permanent as i have taken a few breaks from the cocktail and my size remained the same!
i've not discussed it with my doctor but very curios to know your doctors opinion.

congratulations darling :congratulations:

aw, i'm happy the compliments are pouring in.

how much weight or dress sizes have you lost?

 

[Br*nzeb*mbsh~ll]

Blaque*, don't bring me down. .

I don't think i've lost a dress size and the weight isn't even much to talk about...i just think this month i may have dropped about 8-10 pounds, is all...but it must be really noticeable bcs everyone keeps mentioning it - my hubby, brother, two neices, mom, a bunch of colleagues...(and women keep staring at me up n' down (I did wear a purple ruffled mini-dress with red platform sandals )...i also wore my hair straightened this weekend - coincidence?) and these were all separate accounts!

I was just inundated with these questions/stares.
I won't even put myself on blast and state how much i really wanna lose , but I would love to feel a size 8 on my size -- bum! LOL!!

Good for you Br*nze!

I took a 2 week hiatus, but I'm back on the cocktail! This morning I added strawberry, raspberry, blueberry and banana to the main ingredients.

It seems permanent to me as well. It is the weirdest thing. I could not get an appointment before month-end. If she says anything worth noting, I will update. The eggs I use are organic, so I am not concerned about hormones, maybe eggs add additional estrogen? I don't know. I wish my hair was growing as fast as the ladies.

Cocktailing today.

Bronze - Happy anniversary! I can't wait till I get to a year with HHJ! I am looking forward to the results.

 

[Br*nzeb*mbsh~ll]

Thank you, Aspire!
Yep, my boobs are perkier, too. My hair is growing quickly, but I'm still growing out some thin hair as a result of my transition. I'm just graaaaazing bsl now, but I don't think i'll cut my endz until my 2 year transitioning anniversary, then i'll be fully natural, with no straight ends. I hope!

I just did a search for this thread and I'm glad I found it. I received the worst haircut ever this summer. I'm going to my sister's graduation in May 2010, seeing folks I haven't seen in 5 years so my hair and body needs to be bangin. I will be joining you girls.

Is everyone still using the original recipe? I've seen tweeks with the kind of milk etc but is everyone using the main ingredients?

Hair Cocktail Ingredients:
3/4 glass of whole milk (I used SilkSoy Vanilla)
1 raw egg
1 tblspn raw wheat germ oil
2 tblspns raw wheat germ
for flavor, you may add a piece of fruit in season
