Vitamin Challenge 2013

Why not just put a reminder on your phone around the time you eat lunch or dinner so you can take your vitamins with food?

I may have too do this for the weekend. I have one set for my birth control because I would definitely forget those on the weekend too & I probably just need to take them at the same time that I take my bc pill. The portable case would for sure come in handy too because if I'm not at home, it doesn't even matter if I set a reminder if I don't have the vitamins w/ me. LOL!

BTW.. Checking in also!! I took 5000mg biotin, womens' multi & 1000 vitamin C. Def needed the vitamin C since I have a cough & slight congestion :sad:. My mom gave me some liquid B complex but I keep forgetting it at home.
 
My Viviscal arrived. Lol, definitely cutting down on these vitamins when my hair grows out. I'll be taking a reduced amount for health maintenance.
 
Didn't take EPO or silica last night; didn't do MR this morning :nono:

I did do my stuff Sun night/Monday mornign though...just off today and last night.
 
I have been horrible at taking my vitamins. I just took a Silica pill. I havent taken my vitamins in over 2wks. My goal for the month of December is to take at least 1 Biotin and 1 Silica.
 
I am in!!! My 16 yo is driving me in sane to take vitamins so I will join. She is taking biotin right now to get her twa growing which it is :yep:
 
Took my 5000mcg biotin, womens multi, 1000mg vit c & added the liquid b complex last night. My mom says that this makes her hair grow really fast which it does.

I think I am the only one taking 10mg of Biotin. For me I dont have any breakouts at all and I cant really speak on the difference bc I keep my hair braided and take down every 2 weeks, wash, and braid back up. My hair havent been straight since June so IDK.

I am taking 10mg of biotin too. I am in my second month of taking them. My nails are definitely growing more quickly and strong. I haven't had any breakouts. My hair is growing faster too, but I also added some MSM to my regimen so I don't know if the acceleration is from the MSM/Biotin combo or if one is more responsible than the other.
 
Checking in: Still FAITHFULLY taking my vits:


Bamboo Silica
Biotin (4 x 5,000 mcg)
Aloe Vera Supps
Garlic Oil
Fish Oil
MSM
Mineral Rich

Hair and nails are really on point :)
 
I'd like to join.

1000mg MSM daily
1000mg Fish oil daily
Vitafusion Multi-vite daily
GNC Women's Hair, Skin & Nails Formula daily

Yayyy I see we also have another 10mg+ sister up in here DominicanBrazilian82. I dont take MSM, I forgot what the benefits were LOL. BraunSugar, what brand are you taking.

I am taking the GNC Brand 5,000mcg each cap x 2. Oh yea and I am not sure how my hair is reacting bc I am transitioning over to natural but my nails grow like crazy and they are super strong, which I so love!

How is the 20mg of Biotin going for you. What brand are you taking DominicanBrazilian82?
 
Took my 10mg Biotin, Multi-Vit, and Iron this morning. Oh yea and also took some Chia seeds, that should stop me from eating too much today.

ZebraPrintLover I am using Natrol. This is the first time I've tried it.
 
I am interested in joining.

My Daily Bread....

Viviscal Extra Strength - 1 in the morning and 1 before bed
B-12 5000 mcg - 1 in the morning
Biotin 5000 mcg - 1 in the morning and 1 before bed
Calcium 750 +D&K - 2 in the morning
Horsetail 500 mg - 1 before bed
Iron 65mg - 1 before bed
Pantothenic Acid 500 mg - 1 before bed

I sort of wanted to stop everything else so that I could see the Viviscal results by itself. But I'm transitioning instead of BC'ing so I need all the help I can get and some Godspeed too...this head looks rough :lachen:

Used up all my Spring Valley MSM and now I am using Puritan's Pride brand. I am also almost out of my multivitamin and will be switching to Safeway store brand since they were 90% off on clearance.
 
I would love to join.


I was originally taking spring valley hair skin and nails supplement. My hair was growing pretty nicely with it. But then I stopped because I was lazy and kept forgetting. So now I'm going to try maxi hair/biotin/MSM...still undecided about the garlic yet...so I'll hold off on that...

I'm getting my hair straightened at the end of the year to see where it is and ill post a pic of it then...but I'll put one of it now as well...

Forgot my MR this morning, but did my silica and EPO yesterday...but did it in the morning. Also I've added Vitamin C. I took some cod liver oil over the weekend too, but don't think that'll be a regular thing.
 
I was off from work since Thanksgiving & did fairly well remembering to take my vitamins but forgot a couple of days. I took vitamin C everyday & the multi only on Sunday night. Took vitamin C, biotin, & multi today. Will take the B complex when I get home this evening. :grin:
 
I got some Bamboo liquid drops,Acai Splash powder & more MSM powder...

Waiting for more HairOmega/DHT block pills to come.

Happy Hair Growing!
