I think she means she has the cocktail twice a day. I have it twice a day when I can, but life has gotten in the way. So as soon as I get back on track, I fall off. Going to the grocery store this week (hopefully tomorrow sometime to re-up on supplies!)
Oh, and try the fresh spinach in your drink. It's great!

had too many eggs (2) in too little almond milk. I got through it, but wondering, is it the yolk or white that does it for the hair? Is it the cysteine in the yolk?
I usually have 2 eggs w/a full glass of milk, but it feels wasteful and sometimes I can't finish it. tomorrow I'm stepping down to one egg w/a little milk.

@LANGST - where is the flavor? Almond milk is a bit bitter, and hemp powder has its own strong taste as well as raw wheat germ. Wheat germ is powerful on the palate.
I add nutmeg and cinnamon and alot of it as well as either sugar or more than sugar, Truvia w/a pinch of sugar added.
The nutmeg is stronger than the other flavors and cinnamon is very good for blood sugar stabilization. If you are just starting, I'll drop back on the hemp powder or the amounts to adjust your taste buds.

Still drinking my shake daily. I've only missed it like once or twice in the last few weeks. Since I started drinking the shake my skin has drastically changed. I'm only getting a few breakouts whereas before my acne was in full effect. I've had my cornrows in for 2 weeks & I have 1/2 inch new growth in most areas already. Can you really get 12 inches in 12 months? If this keeps up, I'll be MBL by the summer. Only time will tell.

i'm happy with how this thread has always been
I agree...I thought it was implied that this was a challenge in itself. But I could be wrong.

ITA - It's like a personal challenge support thread, no pressure, no rules about how many times you must do something, everybody comes here to support and help each other - I don't want the beautiful vibe in the here to change.
BTW, much love to BB for starting and facilitating such a great thread.

So a little update from me:
My skin: It's doing so well, I'm really happy with the shake and CHL combined. These things and not eating junk are working miracles!! Don't know yet if MSM is having an effect on my skin as some people have reported good and others bad. I've also started using a homemade green tea and ACV toner (Pocahantas posted on her blog about it a while back) after washing my face, and using emu oil. My skin is smooth and I'm pimple free!
My hair: I had to dust approx half an inch of the ends of each of my plaits this weekend
Normally I consider the scissors an enemy, but it really had to be done, I had a lotta tree-branch split ends from too much blowdrying. After I get my hair done, I will start monitoring my NG. I've signed up for Bootcamp next yr to ensure I stay minimal heat and protective styled.
My body: Is toning up nicely, the CHL, cardio and
combined is doing it's good work, I got into a size 12 skirt that I have not been able to wear to church for months because it wouldn't have met my standards of modesty... lil sis got some junk in her trunk y'all 
I'm excited to reap the benefits of the WL cocktail along with consistent healthful eating and exercise in 2010!!

I am so totally out of any kind of milk, so I just slid two raw eggs down my throat. One at a time. My young son followed with me with just one.
He's liking it. (It's something different for him.)

Just downed my first shake and I must say it's not bad. I was concerned about tasting the egg and the oil (after I smelled it) but I used vanilla almond milk,a packet of stevia, and a bannana in the recipe and it was really yummy! Off to buy a blender. Had to stir it by hand this morning.

Hello fellow egglets. I haven't been here in a while, but I am back to cocktailing after falling off the wagon for a few days or so. Yes Bronze, I think the eggnog was giving me extra lbs that I really didn't want, so I won't be using it in my shakes for a while. But did someone say orange juice should not be used? I sometimes add it and it really tastes good so I'd hate to hear that I've been sabbotaging my shake benefits by adding it. Also,I do add a little product called Spark. It's a powder to make energy drinks. It has a sweet flavor and so I don't feel the need to add Agave nectar for sweetness. I want to say it's not really a caffeine exactly but maybe a deriviative. Experienced egglets let me know if these are a no no.
Happy Holidays and Cocktailing. Merry Christmas to all....

Welcome Egglettes CherieMaire and PinkyD to our Nest!!
This is so awesome, you guys! We're on the grow...
Welcome back Steph, I did post about not using orange juice, but when I went back to the book to research why, I couldn't find it. I swear I read that?.? I tried it and I really like the way it tastes. So, I guess it's good to use. I just know I read that somewhere, but I must be mistaken.
Oooh, I knew not to use Eggnog. Now, I drink it separately, but I knew i'd get addicted to it in the cocktail, so I didn't wanna go there. My hips and boobs are thanking me for resisting the lure... Also, I think Spark is fine. I've seen it before. I don't think it'll hurt.
Merry Christmas to you, too, Honey.

Langt, I think you'll like hemp protein. As far as the egg, you are way too uncertain about it, so don't do it. (Do you all drink Eggnog down there, bcs, if you do, it may be safe to drink the egg...)
If you go with hemp powder,we'll cheer you on. You're still an Egglette. Did you look into egg powder? That's also an option - though a pricey one.

^^ im hoping the hemp protein is going to work just as good.. maybe i should add an egg? im still worried about salmonellai know someone who got sick with salmonella and she was very very ill...

Yes, I know this thread is a tremendous read...I think the laidbackness (lol) of this thread is really beneficial.
I personally dislike pressure - I got enough going on in my life without being pressed for pictures, posting, yada yada yada. I do understand that it's a great motivator for some, though, and can keep ya on track.
I'd like to start a 2010 thread because this one is so HUGE. The pertinent info is on page 1, though...It wouldn't necessarily be a challenge, but a Part Deaux. We'll see how this goes and play it by ear...

hi egglettes....haven't been cocktailing but i'll get right next week.
@ amwcah (& others who might also want to know):
I had re-posted my pics upthread for the latecomers, but here they are again. I made a plea for the other ladies to re-post theirs, but everyone moves at their own speed. I can only account for my progress pics.
both sets of pics are on page 343.

Here's some cliffs notes/time line (for those of you who can't open the other links) which includes some of the old pics and new pics to compare them against:
the first 3 pics are of wet hair, no product added. dates should be on the files but if not I will come back and add them.
the other two pics are of wet hair with product added. I will add the last pic in another post since I can only upload 5 pics at a time.
You can visit my fotki to see the rest of my albums.
