Weight Gain/Loss with Waistlength/Egg cocktail??

[NappyMD]

Ok, I'm tired of the anecdotes, I want a poll!

You know you ladies have tried that raw egg shake, it's not just the egglettes!

For those who tried it (without adding extra calories to the recipe), do you think it impacted your weight? If so, why (ie, were you hungrier/less hungry, very bloated, sluggish metabolism, etc)?

Thanks for your contribution to this important research

Bumpity bump, come on ladies!

My clothes certainly got tighter, and I was so pissed! Granted it was my fault because I hadn't been working out, but it only set me further back in my weight loss goals.

Been on it for a couple months. No affect on weight.

I was on it for a few months, and didn't notice any significant change in weight.

I gained weight, only because I had surgery and had to live a sedentary lifestyle. I recently started working out again (while drinking my shake) for a week and lost 8 lbs.

If you're working out, I don't see you gaining weight. It doesn't leave me bloated, but I understand that everyone is different. I love that stuff and I just had my shake today!

I feel like I eat less throughout the day when I have it, I have good energy, and the calories are about equal to what I normally eat for breakfast. But I have heard a lot of ladies have gained from it and don't want it to mess up my figure or prevent me from dropping my body fat % . So thanks for your help!

I'm not doing the egg shake but a daily protein shake for breakfast. I think I gained about 20 lbs in several months. I was probably underweight to begin with but I would like to lose 10 lbs.

However, I quit smoking during this time which was probably the main contributor. I definitely started eating more- probably because of the not smoking, but also I think just having something in the morning made me hungrier. I did not used to eat breakfast, and I did not get hungry.

I don't attribute it to the shake so much, and I'm not going to stop. It is making my hair grow really fast and I feel like it is doing a lot for my overall health. The shake does not have many calories at all. I just need to not eat so much!

Hey Kitty! Do you know how much growth you're getting by drinking the protein shake? How many grams of protein do you drink in a shake and how much do you weigh (you don't have to answer that if you're not comfortable)?

I only ask because I have began drinking protein drinks for growth. I'm about 115lbs and drink about 50 grams of protein in my shakes. I'm not too physically active since I had a baby a couple of weeks ago. I was thinking of increasing my protein to 60grams since I'm breastfeeding and need the extra calories/protein as well.

TIA!

ive been drinking a protein shake is helping me to lose weight thats why i took it, but is because im on a diet and excersice. If any of you want to buy a protein shake plz loo in the nutrition facts and the carbs level can not be too high.

For example my shake has 2.7 carbs every 30 grs so is good, but sometimes the carbs are like 25 per 30 grs and is too much. Maybe it will help with the growth but you will also gain a lot of weight.

Heya!

- My hair seems be be growing 5/8" - 3/4" per month. I'm also drinking lots of water, taking vitamins, and doing other things etc so I don't know if it is all shake.

- The shake has 14g of protein. I also mix it with 1tbsp flax oil, usually some milk (which adds a lot of protein), or juice, and chlorella...hmmmm, maybe I need to use skim milk or water. The product only has 97 calories or so per serving before stuff is added so the more I think about it, the less I can really blame this shake for gaining weight.

- I weighed myself last week and I was 135 (I'm 5'4"). My previous weight was 110-120 so I am going to try to get back to 120-125 (a little extra weight looks good on me).
