GROW YOUR HAIR WITH L-CYSTEINE & EGGS CHALLENGE!

⏳ Limited Access:

Register today to view all forum posts.

I think LL Cool J said it was ok to eat the whole egg too (in his workout book, that I bought for my husband that is collecting dust)....so Ima do it...lol:lachen:
girl, pizza, fried chicken, fries and burgers are far worse and I do those like nothing when I WANNA , I'm bad, but I'm doing better, these lil ole eggs dont scare me after what I have done, plus there is so much good stuff in them, they are the main source of some things in the whole egg
 
I started with the garlic last week. The egg whites started last Saturday. The L-cysteine will start whenever the post man drops it off. I think this will improve my overall health as well, not just my hair...

BTW, for all you guys eating whole eggs, limit your yolks to 4 a week. You can do a lot with egg whites, and they are a complete protein. The yolks in moderation are great, but 7-14 yolks a week is too much... this is what I got from a lot of nutritional websites.

oh and you guys , VERY IMPORTANT, dont forget your B complex and 3x the amount of Vitamin C for the L-Cysteine
 
Can I do this challenge with just the eggs? I'm afraid of taking too many vitamins.:ohwell:

yes you can :yep:

you will still be adding whole protein to your diet and l-cysteine! we are just doing a more 'amped' up version to get more protein and more l-cysteine

u could also do the egg treatments
 
lol...i hear you...my mom gave me a book last night, that had real cheap vitamins in it. I think it was PuritanPride, something like that. Well we are gonna go in half on payday...whoo hoo and order some vits. I just ran out of B-Complex, didn't realize I was low, crap, and I still need to get some Vit C.

And yessss we don't even want to discuss CONDITIONERS. If my husband knew how much $$$ I have spent between, Spices of India, Walgreens, Akins, GNC, Walmart he would put me on house arrest and definitely take the computer away.:computer:cuz I'm spending there too.

Had my eggs this morn, did my cowash last night w/ oil rinse b4, didn't add the eggs because i just got a relaxer and used Protein already this week. Drove in this morn to work w/ my eggs beside me, already cooked :lick: and stankin:rolleyes:

GIRL! :lol: I know huh? I went hog wild ordering some conditioners , we wont discuss how much *cough* I still got some ordering to do , but had to do the grown up thing and pay these dang gone billls and rent and you know , buy food :grin:and stuff first , but I'm buidling up for that order, because I have to order other stuff too when I place it, so its coming , just waiting till everything clears to see where I am , when all the bills rent and what not go through
 
just a little update: i've been eating 2-3 eggs since starting the challenge. i think i've only missed one day though. i don't have the supplement, i thought i did but it was actually one of a similar name. i'll get it later this month or next month. it's too soon to see any results yet.
 
checkin in...another day of eggs

Another day for me too, so glad your really sticking to too as well :yep:

yeah you gotta get them other vits too mama! I know these eggs stink huh? lol my daughter keeps reminding me of that when I go to eat em if she's around haha. I should put myself on some kind of punishment for all that money I spent on conditioners *geesh* . If I could have found the l-cysteine while I was out that would have been great, but I couldnt , so if I have to do it online then I have to get other stuff with it , so thats making me have to wait. not much longer though
 
Just checking in to say I'm still on the wagon, eating at least 3-4 eggs a day for lunch. I've been eating omelettes for lunch pretty much every day.

I haven't put any eggs in my hair since about 3 weeks ago, soooo, I think I'll do an egg treatment my next wash.

Oh, Iris, I did the salt in condish thing and LOVE the results!!! I've been reading your thread all day, killing myself laughing and couldn't bring myself to post there -- tooooo funny. As you mentioned in one post, EVERYONE from there to Timbuktu knows about you love affair with oil and since I'm in the neighborhood of Timbuktu (somewhere in West Africa), I was like :lachen: Ummmm she's gonna figure that a lil oil will solve that problem. Anywho, I digress . . .

The eggs thing is causing me to lose some extra pounds and I'm loving that my clothes are not so snug, you know?

Neroli :lachen: see you aint right. I know others loved it, why do I gotta be the one havin problems? haha, I just need my oil (hehe) Im'a be ok! did you see the scarey stuff they were saying about salt , had me thinking I messed up my tresses for good, but I refuse to believe its anything a lil oil wont fix :grin:

funny you mention weight, I Have lost a few pounds too , couldnt figure out how for the life of me........now I know! :yep:
 
^^^Iris, aint nothing wrong with your hair that a bit of oil won't fix, you just "clarified" a tinsy winsy bit and had a fit.*:lachen:* Yeah, the weight loss thing is a bit of added bonus -- my omelettes are complete meals with tomatoes, onions, mushrooms, cheese, and very filling so no desire for anything else, except some raw nuts like sunflower seeds, almonds, walnuts, pecans, etc. for desert.* I ALWAYS drop a few pounds when I increase protein and reduce starch . . .

I hope ur right mama, cause some of them posts are worryin me! I cant wait to get my hair back :cry:

and your egg dishes sound delicious :lick:
 
Let's post our egg recipes right in this thread. I'm having a hard time, but I'm determined to eat at least 2 eggs everyday!
 
If you have high blood pressure or high cholesterol, please be careful, ladies. Not too many eggs. I want you to have a good heart and arteries to boot! :blowkiss:

yeah nobody with high blood pressure or high cholesterol should eat the yolks too much -I dont think, the whites would be no problem though

but I am doing good with the eggs, lil ole yolk aint no worse than some french fries a burger and some pizza, I know that for sure

There was a lot of false hype surrounding the yolk and hight cholesterol too, I posted some links back in the thread:yep:
 
Ive lost 7 pounds since starting this challenge, I still dont get why :spinning: But one problem I am getting sick of the eggs now, but I WILL keep eating the eggs :yep:

I haven't tracked how many pounds lost, but must be a few because my clothes are hanging right and the only difference in diet/lifestyle is EGGS! I'm not sick of them yet because I do mix up some serious omelettes with different stuff in there all the time. :yep:I haven't had to eat a boiled egg yet, even tho I like them, they do gag after a while. . .

Oh, I did another eggstradinary treament last night:

  • eggpoo = beat one whole egg into 1/4 cup of mayonaisse for an eggstra thick goo, apply to dry, dirty hair, cover with plastic and turbin 45 minutes, rinse thoroughly
  • moisturize = mix molasses and glycerin into condish, apply to hair 15 minutes, rinse thoroughly
I finished with usual leave-ins, oils, etc. and airdry = gorgeous hair!!

Thats so good your getting so much benefit out of this Neroli and your so creative with your recipes. I'm going to have to figure out other ways to eat these eggs! :yep:
 
I'm with you on that. I try to throw everything I can into mine. The only thing is that I don't eat it in an omlette, I eat it scrambled. I don't know how to do an omlette. Mine always come out wrong :look: But I loves me some eggs :lick: :lick:

Thanks Irresistible for posting this. It's a great idea. I just started this morning, but I'm looking forward to seeing any results it may bring, hair-related or otherwise.:yep:

Hang in there girlie, the 8 week mark is fast approaching. I think my date is 9/11
I'm hanging girl!

I can't wait to take comparison pics!!!
yeah I'm hoping I get something out of this, our Tigget sure has! I can only feel a thickness and dont know if it will show in the pics later, we shall see

me eitha...I never got the l-cysteine, but I have been eating eggs daily. So my results will only show that. However Ima keep it up anyway, and eventually add the L-Cysteine.
Same here! you already have some pics, you should post them here too:yep:
