    It's an oil, like any other oil. It doesn't cause weight loss.

    It has calories like olive oil...so if I have room for it, sure. I often don't have the space for 120 calories/tablespoon of oil.

    No. I'm using "eating less than I burn" for weight loss. But that doesn't sound as sexy.

    And you can't rub it in your hair.

    Makes great popcorn. Helps with the eczema, but it is no more of a help for weight loss than any other oil.

    It sure tastes good though. I mix it with peanut butter and eat it when I want a big ol' calorie bomb.

    It works nice in empanada dough and pie crust, doesn't cause e weight loss and is a sin to put in coffee.

    Sorry, not sorry. ;) I'm about 1000 calories short right now and almost met protein goal so I'm pretty sure I know what I'm doing... Netflix and chill with two delicious jars, a bowl, and a spoon.

    Edited because it needed an emoji.

    I'd donate but I was severely under calories yesterday due to poor planning. Also, having no idea where you are I can only assume it would never make it to you in an edible state.

    (Also, sorry for derailing the thread!)

    I would love to use it as a moisturizer. I'll be moisturized all the way to my goal weight!
