Is anyone up for a 'Take your vits' challenge?

[Guapa1]

Is anyone out there as bad at taking vitamins as me? I start with a regime, and am so rigid, and then I miss a day.. Then 2, then have fallen of altogether!
Anyone want to help each other remember by posting in here, and reporting on a good progress to keep the momentum up? I'm trying to take msm, acidophillus (not hair related), and fish oil tablets. So who's in?

 

[Bublin]

I'm in.

I'm terrible at routine and need this challenge.

I intend on just taking 1 very good multivitamin - Multibionta - it contains stuff that will benefit the whole body...including hair and nails.

When do we start?

 

[nelli711]

I will join. I hardly take my vits anymore and I know I need to.

 

[Nanyanika]

[Determined22]

I'm in.....

 

[Hidden_Angel]

[growthbyforce]

I'm definately in.

 

[gloomgeisha]

*raises hand* I am, and I really need to be more consistent about it. I'm definitely in. I feel like it's going to take me forever to get to full APL *grumbles*

I heard it takes 30 days for something to become a habit, so maybe we can do it for that period of time or a little longer.

I don't know, just throwing ideas out there...

 

[newflowers]

I'm in - I bought new vitaminsthis week and have been good about taking them - this week. Of course, I threw away some vitamins that sat in my cupboard untaken until the expiration date came and went.

I'm definitely in.

 

[Whimsy]

I'm so in.

I need to take my iron and face meds. But I want to take my B complex and Biotin.

 

[Guapa1]

Fantastic! So if everyone has vitamins sitting around, shall we start Monday? For about 40 days?

I'm in also! I'm not completely sure what I'll take, but until I find out, I'll continue taking my prenatal vitamin and flaxseed oil. Let's do this!

 

[newflowers]

Monday sounds good to me.

I am taking:
a.m.
1 Nature's Plus Source of Life Multi-vitamin & minerals with whole foods
1 Trader Joe's Vitamin C complex
1 Natural Factors MSM
2 Trader Joe's Spirulina
1 Trader Joe's Flaxseed Oil

1 Trader Joe's Flaxseed
1 Trader Joe's B-complex
1 Trader Joe's L-Lysine

It almost feels like vitamin overload, but this is my trail for the next 40 days (plus one week that I've been taking) to see improvements in skin and hair. After the Challenge, I re-evaluate and see if I wish to continue and what I may wish to change.

Do you want to post results here, in the journal, or start a new thread once the begin date is here?

 

[MsAngie]

This challenge is right on time! I have been slacking with my vitamins so bad.
I will be taking:
2 UltraHairNourish
2 1500mg biotin
2 flaxseed oil
1 multivitamin

 

[oduwu]

Count me in. Right now I will be taking a multi vit and Flaxseed Oil. Maybe something else, I'll have to see what else I have in my cabinet

 

[sareca]

He says I could open a stand in front of the house and sell them!!!! The sad part about it, he is telling the truth!!!!

That is too funny!

 

[Radianthealth]

I am trying so hard to take my vitamins. I have way too many and I want to make the most out of my 6 month stretch. I have three more months left

 

[jrae]

I'm in! I'm n a personal "use up all your vitamins challenge" before you buy more. I have many, I have to keep them in an overnight bag. I have vits or hair/nails and weight loss and I ordered Bamboo, too, but it hasn't arrived yet.

I'll be using up:
One-a-Day WeightSmart
Biotin
B-50
Vit C
MSM
CLA
L-Carnitine/ALA
Spirulina

 

[ryanshope]

I am down...I just order h37 and viviscal(got them today) with my msm and silica...I will be past bra length(stuck for years it seems)...

 

[gloomgeisha]

So far I am taking;

Hair Skin and Nails
Biotin
Evening Primrose
Vitamin E
Aloe (for my skin)
Fish Oil
Lysine

The vit e, aloe, and biotin are small and so are easy to swallow all at once. The Lysine is huge and circular, I don't know how they think anyone would be able to handle that horse pill.

 

[tricie]

I'm in...I have been pretty faithful for the last few months, so now I know I have to keep it up; this will definitely keep me on track! Thanks for starting this thread!

 

[WonderfullyMade]

I'm in! I've been going strong for the last 3 weeks, but I could use some support. This is my first official challenge. I'll be taking Biotin, Flax seed oil, MSM, and my Centrum multi.
