wow 115 pages. this is a great thread!

 

[shortycocoa]

I get them from eithier WF or Fairway. Lately my neighborhood bodega has been carrying them.

Thanks! I haven't been to Whole Foods in a minute but maybe I can plan a trip soon and see if it's there.

Hey Team Egglettes! 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! 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!

Thanks StellaB! I didn't do much updating for january to my fotki. I noticed that January seems to always be a lazy month for me. I'm gonna try to do an update around the third week of february, on or after the 18th to be exact. Yes ma'am I am still on it. I cocktailed it last night. I was this close to not cocktailing and eating dinner with my husband. But I thugged it out and had my drink instead. It was yummy! He saw me putting the spinach in with the other ingredients.

I love Bolthouse Farms! They make some good juices. I started drinking that carrot juice in 2007 as well. I still drink it off and on. Haven't had any in a while. I also love their Green Goodness drink. It is so filling. Have you tried it?

 

[Br*nzeb*mbsh~ll]

Be Blessed, you guys...I've been in Leadership Meetings - pooped.
Will check-in tomorrow night.

Progress Update.

Last week I had a colleague tell me that my hair "is back."

She explained how she felt so sorry for me two years ago when my hair just fell out. She commented how beautiful my hair was and it just hurt her heart to see me going through. She says, as Black women, that she believes it's stress-related. Which, I really believe is dead-on.

She even accurately marked the time when my hair did it's shift for the worse.
Geez.
I thought that was really kind of her and it was definitely encouraging.

So, Imma keep doing what I've been doing.

You guys, don't give up the fight.
And, yes, we always win!!!

 

[CarolinaGal]

Hi Everyone! I had my first egg shake since completing the Daniel Fast this morning for breakfast. It was soooooo yummy! I'm still just using frozen fruit (mango), rice milk, and cage-free vegetarian fed hen eggs.

>>>>hugs all around<<<<

Your kids are cute! Are they cocktailing also?

 

[Br*nzeb*mbsh~ll]

Nahh, my kiddos saw the raw egg and they were like, no way. I kept trying to hide it from them, but they saw me make it...they are such picky eaters. Hope they grow out of it soon, though.

Wow! That's awesome! I've had to stop my shake for a month while I'm on the HCG diet and I'm dreading EVERY second of it! I'm losing my benefits...my skin has turned against me, because it WAS glowing, so I can not WAIT to get back on....I'm be re-joining my egglette sisters real soon...in about a month! I think my hair grew a lot from this too...but I'll be better able to tell at the end of March now...thanks for the info and progress update!

 

[Br*nzeb*mbsh~ll]

Thanks Chocolat79. You go for being on the HCG regimen. You're body must be thanking you big time. I considered it, but I already know I can't hang, lol!

We'll be here when you are ready!

 

[shortycocoa]

Hello egglettes! Cocktailed it today for a late lunch. I went back to the healthfood store yesterday to get some more goodies.

As soon as I walked in, the lady who always helps me said to me, "We have some more wheat germ oil. You come for your wheat germ oil?"

And I said, "no, ma'am...I bought the last 2 bottles you had last time, remember?"

So she said, "oh yeah, I remember because that's why I ordered some more. Well we have plenty wheat germ oil for you next time!"



LET ME FIND OUT SHE KEEPING TABS ON WHAT I GET FROM HER ALL THE TIME!

So anyway, as I'm getting everything on my list, she compliments me on my skin and asked me what I use on it. I told her I wash my face with Kiss My Face Olive and Honey soap, or I use the Olive and Aloe soap if Olive and Honey is not available, and I didn't even know she sold it. I think she is going to try it. She showed me where it was on the shelf and she smelled it and everything. Then she asked me what else I put on it and I told her I let it air dry until it's damp and then put aloe vera gel on it.

She looked incredulous....and said, "That's all you use? Your skin so beautiful. Most people (women) use a lot of things and a lot of makeup but you don't need any makeup. Your skin so natural and clear. So then I told her about the cocktail and wrote the recipe down for her.

She said she was going to try it. She also said whenever I have kids, it is going to be one healthy baby.



On a side note, when I was in the Home Depot last night, the lady who waited on me said my nails were pretty and she wanted nails like mine. She said hers broke all the time and never grew past her fingertips. I didn't think they looked all that great, especially since I had to file them down before I left the house because they were getting so long.

Go ShortyC~ Cocktail Ambassador to The Nations!!!

Woop Woop - Score Two for the Egglettes!

Have a great one, y'all.

And to agree with you, ShortyC, i get compliments alllll the time on my skin. People just stop me in random places and ask me what foundation do I use, what meds, etc, etc... I'm a naked facer, so they just stare in disbelief. I'm gonna have to share the Cocktail ingredients with them, too!
I usually just accept the compliment and keep it movin'.
Shame on me.

I'm a naked facer too! Putting on makeup to me means a little lip gloss and mascara. Sometimes it's just lip gloss though. Otherwise I don't put on anything except Carmex. People are always trying to find out if I have foundation and al that other stuff on too. Especially when I started eating vegetarian in 2006 and then raw in 2007.

 

[divinefavor]

Hi everyone!! I miss yall! I've slacked off big time, but I hope to get back on this shake soon! I'm planning on transitioning to natural and this drink may help me! I haven't totally made up my mind to go natural yet though. Dang, I first started taking this shake in January 09, I can only imagine where I would be now, if I hadn't stopped.erplexed

 

[divinefavor]

Bronze your kids are so cute!

 

[SVT]

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

blend at low speed for thirty to sixty seconds. drink this blended mixture promptly. this drink should serve as your complete breakfast. do not eat or drink anything else for two hours after drinking this mixture. keep all ingredients refrigerated until use. once you notice the changes in your hair you may cut down on the daily intake of the hair cocktail and take it only twice a week. ofcourse, since it is a healthful drink, you may prefer to continue taking it indefinitely.

So this is still the recipe most are using? I'm thinking about trying it.

[Krymsonkween]

I got all my ingredients. I know this was asked somewhere in the post but here goes.

Can I drink it for my last meal at night and it work while I rest? I can not afford to lose weight. I love to eat and I have to take meds with food in the AM.

Can I add baby food banana instead of a regular nana?

Thanks I am starting tongiht.

 

[shortycocoa]

yep, that's the one, SVT!

come on in!!!

I haven't cocktailed yet today ladies but I plan to get it in at dinner.

I'm updating my fotki right now so I hope to be finished by the end of this week.

 

[hair4romheaven]

i use this recipe

Hair Cocktail Ingredients:
3/4 glass of whole milk (I used SilkSoy Vanilla) thinking about changign to rice milk after reading the horrors about silk soy (just can't win)
whey protein
1 tblspn raw wheat germ oil
2 tblspns raw wheat germ

 

[trinigul]

Still dranking my green creation. Thank God I'm actually seeing the benefits. In fact, yesterday while doing my hair, for the first time in 5 years I considered throwing a perm up in there. IT WAS SOOOO THICK!!! I literally fought to get it into my two french braids. Then I had to quickly thank The Father because I'm at the age when the hair starts thinning out (hereditary). This drink has me going the other way

 

[grow]

i've had a hectic schedule lately, and what one's of the first things to go?
my juicing....the time washing, peeling, chopping, juicing.....but i know it's good for me.

i HAVE been doing my other shake w/the whey protein (molasses, honey, acv, lecithin, barley, farro.....) and my aloe vera, papaya, acai, & horsetail extracts....

ok, TODAY i'm gonna get back on the wagon and go get ready to juice...finally!

once "the habit" is back, i hope it'll be easier to keep...

oh, and CONGRATULATIONS TRINIGUL!!!!!!!

 

[Br*nzeb*mbsh~ll]

Yep, SVT, this is the recipe. Welcome to the Nest! You'll enjoy it, I just know it.

So this is still the recipe most are using? I'm thinking about trying it.

.

Sure, you can take it at night. It's said that it's best on an empty stomach, however, I've taken my cocktail at night when I missed it in the am. I'm sure it will not cause weight loss unless you alter your eating habits. My weight has remained constant.

I got all my ingredients. I know this was asked somewhere in the post but here goes.

Can I drink it for my last meal at night and it work while I rest? I can not afford to lose weight. I love to eat and I have to take meds with food in the AM.

Can I add baby food banana instead of a regular nana? Sure, no prob.

Thanks I am starting tongiht.

Let us know how it goes.

Trinigurl, that's what i'm talkin' about!! I pray that we can all reap results like yours. Your post made my day.

Thanks for sharing. And ofcourse, keep up the great work.

Getttin' my cocktail on tonight, Egglettes!!! I'm soooo excited!!!

 

[hair4romheaven]

trinigul GLORY 2 GOD!!!!
I was planning on getting creatine when my whey runs out. I hear it will work well with my work outs
