    Well, I guess I will be the devil's advocate here. I have been using coconut oil for two weeks now. I use 3 tablespoons a day and I log it every day. As of this date, I have not exceeded my calorie goals. I have lost 12 pounds, 9 inches in the waist, 7 inches in the hips, 6 inches in the stomach, and 6 inches in the bust. I have absolutely no appetite. I have to make myself eat and I make sure I eat well over 1000 calories a day. I have not increased my activity at all. I have not limited any food choices. I just eat much smaller portions, as I am full very quickly. I would not be able to do that if I was hungry.

    Every person is different, so what works well for one, may not work for another. I will always believe mindset plays a big role in anything we do. I've noticed some other changes since starting using the oil. However, I won't go into all of that. I just know that something has made a huge difference for me. Right now, the evidence leans toward the coconut oil.

    On my profile, there is a picture taken exactly one week apart, and 10 pounds down. Some say they can see a difference. I can see and feel it, so that's what's important to me.

    To each his own! We all are on this journey. Wish it were easy, but it's not. It's a battle every single day. It's a battle I plan on winning. So if the time comes that it appears coconut oil is not helping, then I will back up and punt. Until then, I am going to keep on keeping on.

    May I know how often you use it? Before meal? Or first thing in the morning? Use it raw or use it mixed with other food?
