I used to have my ACV in water but now I add it to my tuna!

I was dying to ask the same thing. LOL

I have used ACV (Braggs) with a tablespoon of natural honey every morning with water. I can tell when i don't use it. Plus my skin has cleared up. I recommend it to everyone i know.

If you "bump" a thread--it brings it back to the top of the thread list.

Also, you can find it easier because once you post, it's listed in your "My Topics" tab. :bigsmile:

I love coconut oil and use it on toast or eat it with almond butter on a tablespoon. Love it. I am losing weight but not sure if that is the only reason. I hear that is does help with weight loss and so many other things.

Hmmm.. I have this stuff at home, I use it mixed together on my scalp for my hair. i never thought of ingesting it. Not sure i could stomach just chugging a tsp of the coocnut oil. I could probably do the acv since I saw someone mention putting it in tea, i drink 32 oz of green tea a day, maybe i'll drop a tsp in there see what happens. can't hurt right?

Yuck I wouldnt just chuck down the coconut oil. Put it straight on your food it taste great that way. Dont forget to count the calories as it adds up alot.

YES, I have! I started about one month ago when I started MFP. I sweeten it with a little pure maple syrup. I fix a 20oz cup every morning at work and try to have it drank by 1:00pm. Then when I get home I fix a small 8oz cup again. I can't say for sure if it has burned enough belly fat to notice, but it has so many other great medicinal qualities, I will keep drinking it. I have lost 9lbs since starting this program about 5-6 weeks ago.

I have never tried the coconut oil. I dont like coconut flavor.

Actually coconut oil are Medium chained triglycerides, not short or long chain triglycerides. The guy at the supplement store needs to do some more learning

Your my hero, you know that right?


Going to try the acv.

I used to drink a cap of vinegar everyday, but I didn't see much difference in weight loss. A tiny bit, but not a lot. Now that I am cutting calories, I may try it again.

what ever you do dont burp soon after drinking that glass of acv water. Some one might think you are a douche bag.

Laughing my bum off at this. Ha

I use the virgin coconut oil on my entire body. I did my research on it. It does rev up your metabolism but I tried it for the sole benefit of my hypothyroid condition. My meds have now dropped from 50mg to 7.5 mg and the doctor says that he thinks I don't need my thyroid medicine anymore. He is amazed. I am too! The weight is falling off me and who can't be happy about that?

ok drank the acv today...not to horrible. But when I went to the health food store they only had the coconut oil in caps. So I bought them and decided I'd give that a whirl till I can find the raw stuff. I live in a small town so will probably head up to Vegas this week and grab some. My question with the coconut oil is the amount of fat. It says to take 4 of these caps a day and that would be 52 g of fat. That's almost my whole days worth. Suggestions?

I use it to cook with, and in place of butter on things. I don't notice any taste to it at all. I am going to have to find some of that organic ACV though!

JenAiMarres

I don't know about the caps. In the raw jar oil it's 125 calories per T. and total fat 14g but it's a good fat.

Loving this information! Just knowing that it could help with my Hypothyroid condition! I am currently on 125 mg and still feel like I could fall asleep standing up some days! I remember when I was 8 I would drink straight pickle juice until my aunt caught me and told me I had to stop as I would never gain any weight! *sigh* I remember when that was a problem

Hi this is interesting and I would love to try it. Is there a particular brand for the coconut oil, I think I will have to buy it on line. Thanks
