Yes i am :sad:
I dont want to order the pills cause i have so much of the other stuff
but it isnt powder its granules maybe thats why it isnt getting blended all the way through?
Even the smell :perplexed
And it should last for a while still.. Its the NOW brand from Iherb.com

ok, mines is the liquid..same brand!
 
ok, i did the acv, honey, molasses drink with the powdered farro and barley, but this morning i added lecithin and yeast.

eww was it hard to get down, but i did it..... also because i felt badly that i did not find or make the time to get my veggie drink done yesterday.

i only did the fruit drink w the raw egg.....

this is hard work....i cannot wait to reach my goal and take it easy for a while...
 
Hello egglettes! Woke up this morning and had to fight the urge to eat a solid foods breakfast. I cocktailed instead. added PB & chocolate to my cocktail yesterday.
 
Pancakes and 2 fried eggs this mornin. Yesterday I cocktailed it with pear and coconut water, flaxseed, wg oil, chl, and a splash of lemon juice.
 
Reeses in the house! I'm gonna try that, ShortyC~

Awww, Refreshing - that's all I can think of, Pook, coconut water? How does it taste?I have some at home, so I'm considering...

Super Sunday, Egglettes!
 
Hey BB - to me the coco water doesn't really have that much of a taste to it so when you add it to the shake with other fruits it just melds into the rest. It was a nice combo for me, and the coco water is really good for ya - I like to mix it up (when I'm at home :) )

Hopefully the London mornings will lighten up soon so it won't feel as hard to get up...
 
What does coconut water do? I love the flavor, especally straight from the fruit...mmmm. Kind of expensve though.
 
Still egging away. Bronzie, this was the BEST advice I have received on this site...hands down. When I have the time (ummm...when I don't feel lazy), I make the shake (rarely) but my quick, functional shake works for me. Even I am admiring my skin and hair. I am attaching a pic of the top of my hair (it's always in 2 french braids - hoping I was able to capture the BLING!). Anyway, here is my latest shake.

Trade Joe's or fresh aloe juice (I make, before hand, from the leaf from the green grocer)
1 heaping tsp of Chlorella (reggulah ole cutlery...not measuring spoon)
2 heaping tsps of spirulina
1 clove garlic (reduced shedding!!!)
1 scoop chia seeds (roughage)
1 tbsp wheat germ oil
1 lemon/lime (juiced)
Whiz the above in my Magic Bullet then whip 2 eggs in with a chopstick (read somewhere on curezone.com about egg, metal and destroying nutrients).

Don't even think about it and drink.

The first time I put my lips to te cup, it tasted like HELL! However the benefits just keep me drinking it day after day. I'm used to this drink now, so the taste really doesn't affect me.

Thanks for that, Trinigul!! Your hair is blanging, girlie! I must insist that you post more often. That is, I think, the most unique cocktail around, hands down!

Have you done a length check lately?

Try it, Br*nze...it's D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S!!! :lick::lick::lick:
I'm not a big chocolate fan unless it's candy mixed with other stuff (e.g. Turtles, Snickers, Twix, BabyRuth, Reese's Pieces or the miniature cups or sometimes Mr. Goodbar). Sometimes I get cravings for peanut butter and chocolate combined and don't have any PB & chocolate candy so this was one solution. The other solution is 2 slices of wheat toast topped with PB and chocolate syrup. I eat that occasionally to satisfy pre-period cravings.

speaking of which, my period came 6 days early so I guess we're back to that...remember when I told ya'll that was happening? :rolleyes:

Pancakes and 2 fried eggs this mornin. Yesterday I cocktailed it with pear and coconut water, flaxseed, wg oil, chl, and a splash of lemon juice.

Pookiwah, I didn't cocktail yesterday either...I ate a solid food breakfast of french toast sticks, sausage links and scrambled eggs with my husband.
And I LOVE coconut water. We went grocery shopping this afternoon so i re-upped on eggs and soymilk, and I almost bought some coconut water but decided against it because I wasn't feeling experimental with the brands they had in the store. I like Harvest Bay brand (Whole Foods has it and this health food store back home used to have it too and I would buy it by the case. It's better to buy it by the case if you have access to a connect that can do that for you).

What does coconut water do? I love the flavor, especally straight from the fruit...mmmm. Kind of expensve though.

coconut water is very good for you. I believe it has electrolytes, lots of potassium and minerals and it's also good for your skin. I discovered it in 2006 and started drinking it (the harvest bay brand, then I found the Foco brand in 2007 and so far I think those 2 are neck and neck as far as favorites for me, but Foco comes in a short can and a tall can and I would order a case of the tall ones for $22 for about 20 cans or so. My connect at the time owned the chinese restaurant in the food court of the outlet mall where I worked and he sold it over there for $2.00/can. Finally one day I sent one of my good friends over there to investigate when he ran out (he said I had bought up all his coconut water and HE needed to re-up...imagine that...LOL! :grin::grin:) and he told me he got it from a connect of his own so I asked him to get me a case whenever he re-upped on his supply. He told me when he would have it and I just waited for him when I got off and we went to his car and made the exchange. It sucked when I quit working there because then I had to switch back to Harvest Bay since I never found out who his connect was (he seemed reluctant to say and hey...didn't want to ruin a good thing) but that brand is good too. Both those brands have the pulp in there.


Anyway... It has lots of other benefits, I'm sure you could google it to see what you come up with. Here's a wikipedia link to get you started, it's a pretty short read:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coconut_water

I've always wanted to try it fresh and straight from the young coconuts, but haven't yet. Maybe one day I will.

I can't describe the flavor....it's not bad. I love it...some people either love it or don't care for it. Everyone I've come in contact with don't really like it.

I don't think it tastes like coconut at all, so if you're expecting it to taste all island-like and coconutty you will be disappointed. But you should try it at least once.

I will be back on my cocktail later on today. Goodnight, Egglettes!

Well, sadly I'm not a pic documenter so there's nothing to prove this, but all I know is that when I'm braiding my hair, I'm shocked that I'm still braiding. I now have to make sure my ends are well lubricated while I put my hair in the two french braids because....drum roll please...there is more hair to get tangled as I navigate through LONGER strands!!!! My hair has thickened up, gotten stronger, grown (I'm retaining quite a bit with my two french braids...quick, convenient, cute & professional) and IMHO is just darn purty!! I'm told, "Oh, you can wear your hair like that 'cause it's wavy." Please, I try to tell 'em: it's just some happy, healthy, moisturized 4a/b (from just under a scarf) and you can have it too. My glow has netted you two egglets (who never come on this site and are only interested in dredging me for info). One friend had problems sleeping. I noticed a much deeper sleep since I've been egging it, so I suggested she try. My girl is sleeping and a faithful egglet!! (If we can't make a shake, we at least drink the eggs.) Doctors couldn't help this chick as they chalked it up to stress. Don't get me started. I can go on and on because I believe the raw egg is the lighter fluid for all my other supplements (chlorella, spirulina & MSM) and has affected much more than hair. Bronzie, I'm not flattering you when I say thank you for sharing :thankyou:. I'm really grateful and feeling myself :grin:. People at Sephora asking me about my skin (I'm about to reel one chick in as an egglet...gonna start her off with chlorella & spirulina and tell her that the egg will increase the benefits), and a judge comming off his brench to shake my hand after jury duty :rolleyes: (hmmm...the breasteses). Look, if I could just press play on the DVD player and get started on my P90X that I bought for myself Christmas before last, huh! It would be OVAH!

Anyway, this is the best I could do as a length check: I've been in my two french braids and cocktailing since about September 25, 2009. I started out with two little stubby braids which I would just tuck underneath into the french braids. Fast forward to January 2010 (what's that, ummm...cocktailing for a solid 4 months) and my braids are now past my shoulder (I think about 2 inches). I'll try to post some wash day and french braid pics soon.
 
Thanks for posting some coconut water info shortycocoa.

@ PinkyD - I learned about the benefits of coconut water from this small portion of a long post on superfoods by prettyfaceANB in the chlorella thread:

Coconuts - Young coconuts are one of the highest sources of electrolytes in nature. Electrolytes are ionized salts in our cells, that transport energy throughout the body. Coconut water is a much better alternative to commercial sports drinks laden with artificial sugars and colors. The molecular structure of coconut water is identical to human blood plasma, which means that it is immediately recognized by the body and put to good use. Drinking the juice from a young coconut is like giving your body an instant blood transfusion. In fact this was common practice during World War II in the Pacific, where both sides in the conflict regularly used coconut water, siphoned directly from the coconut, to give emergency transfusions to wounded soldiers.

still cocktailing, but an egg free version. *(i miss the eggs, but when i went on my vegan detox, i've not had the desire to touch eggs again!)*
when i had my last egg shake, my belly cramped something terrible!!

i went up another cup/bra size,:ohwell: so i think i'm going to lower the wheatgerm usage..

happy monday egglettes :wave:
 
got my drink in this morning. I drank 8oz before the gym and drank the other half after...then i felt nauseous. ;-( this is the second time not sure why.
 
Hair4romheaven, and any other Egglette reading this post...

Please DO NOT drink your cocktail over an hour after making it. The raw egg (sitting up for that long with or without refrigeration) could cause you to become ill.

I drink my cocktail within 30 minutes of making it.

I wouldn't trust doing it after that. That's just my thoughts on the matter. Rather be safe than sorry.

I really -really don't want anyone to get ill.

I don't use egg I substitute the egg with whey protein. I do however leave it in my car but its like 30 degrees. It's weird only after i work out and drink it I feel uuggh. i think it might be from me drinking 320z of water at gym then 8oz of this stuff may not mix well. :perplexed:rolleyes:

AHHHHHH!!!, another coconut water lover like me. I thought I was all alone in this world. I am addicted to this stuff. My brothers exgf told me to take this when I had a SERIOUS hangover and I tell you no lie, I felt a jolt like I just drank an expresso. I am now hooked for life. This stuff is my go to when I need something sweet ( only 60 cal for 11 oz) Oh coconut water how I love you. Oh mmm back on topic. My daughter looks at me like I am crazy when I drink it and offer it to her. I drink it after work outs or just whenever this stuff is the BIZNESS!!!! My favorite so far is ONE coconut water but I may have to try the one you are discussing.

Brownnbubblie you said it....coconut water is the business! I don't think I've ever heard of the One brand so maybe I'll have to try that. Where would I be able to find it?

I think I am also going to look in some ethnic grocery stores to see if I can find my beloved Foco. If not, I'll look for Harvest Bay.
 
MY WHEY PROTEIN ARRIVED!

just the boost i needed to get excited about my fresh fruit drinks!

i did my acv, molasses, honey (all biological) with lecithin, powdered farro&powdered barley drink this morning (with hot water and soymilk)....

now i'm actually happy to go peel some fruits and some veggies to get BOTH my fresh vitamin drinks done with the new whey protein!

have any of you ladies got any results to post about things you've noticed different once you started with the whey protein? THANKS!!!

I get them from eithier WF or Fairway. Lately my neighborhood bodega has been carrying them.
 
Hi egglettes and shakers.
It's been a while but I did cont. for about 3 weeks. Just to say I missed my shake a few times but ate solid eggs for about 5 days. I've decided to stick to it straight and actually do excercise along with it this month.

I have experienced other benefits such as fuller bust, clearer skin and energy. Getting up at 5.00am for the shake seemed a dodle too.
While not taking it I noticed my nails became brittle and yellow. Now back on it they appear more white in appearance.

Hope you are all doing well, will check in n update soon. xX
 
Hey Team Egglettes! :wave:Just stopping by to say hi, and to see how everyone is doing! Welcome to all the new egglettes that are on board! Looks like we're hanging in there together. You all have been posting some of the most unique egg recipe shake drinks that I have ever heard of! The addition of a few extra healthy ingredients like chia, cholera, can only make it better imo. I'll be cocktailing tomorrow; I'm already thinking about it. I don't drink the cocktail every day; I like to sneak a few green smoothies and protein drinks in during the week too. Today I had a healthy glass of Bolthouse carrot juice, and boy was it good-but not as good as our hair cocktail!:lick: Milk and eggs, y'all, milk and eggs... for life!

@ ShortyC, your hair is looking fab, honey! Glad to see you're still on it!
@ BronzeB, thanks for being the mother hen in the nest and moderating this huge, almost 500 page info-packed thread!
