I have a fabulous instructor that is a bigger lady. She's losing along with us and we love her!! She gives us all hope. I'm very intemidated by a skinny Zumba instructor. I say, go for it and gain some self esteem!!

46 years young!

Just be sure to drink, drink, drink!!

what is an unnatural time for a mouse? I'm hungry, I'm gonna nom on something!

5.3 oz plain Greek yogurt = 15 grams of protein and only 80 cal! PB2 is good too. Cottage cheese has a nice protein kick too.

enjoy. don't go overboard. "one bad day won't make you fat just as one good day wont make you thin"

add me if you like and won't get tired of a daily reason to use coconut oil. Ok, maybe not daily.")

Seriously? If it didn't matter we could eat candy bars all day and lose weight just as long as we stayed within our calorie goal. No, it matters!

one thing to know, olive oil loses it's heart healthy benefits when heated. Coconut oil never does. ")

look up the benefits of coconut oil.

Just reading how, when ingested, it is one of the only directly absorbed into the cells form of energy, never stored as fat and converted into energy immediately

I wished I could lis all the ways and benefits of this wonderful, natural product. read the book "Coconut Cures"

a dash of salt will fix thatt

I'm certain that popcorn oil was hydrogenated coconut oil. steer clear of anything hydrogenated.....it's bad, bad, bad!

meeee toooo!

oh yes! and a natural anti viral, anti fungal, kills bad yeast, promotes good yeast. and about a hundred other things. seriously felt like an old time tonic pusher.....it even helps regenerate hair growth!! the book explains how by correcting at the cell level.

There is a trick I learned from my book, add a dash of salt when cooking to decrease the aroma and flavor of the coconut ")

I use it like you would a hot oil treatment.

pretty sure this is what I use too.

it's amazing in oats!!

It's the only oil I use. And I use it for EVERYTHING.... my niece started using it for acne, and YES, it's clearing her face up. I started using it for a couple age spots I have and they're fading. My pup gets her daily dose. my husband had a spot on his head thought to have been skin cancer, 3 weeks later, it's gone. It's…

I was needing more friends that didn't think I was nuts!

Nutritionalist started my daughter on straight up 3TBS a day to correct thyroid and insulin resistance so I began researching it. Found out a ton of information. The book "Coconut Cure" is very helpful. A tsp in tea or coffee 20 minutes before meals aids in weight loss by decreasing cravings, correcting metabolism. I've…

My daughter is newly diagnosed with hypothyroidism so I started researching helpful dietary changes. Her nutritionalist pointed us to coconut oil. You might look up the benefits of coconut oil for thyroid issues, it might work for you as well.

yes but not all calories are equal. make good choices, lean meats, fish, veggies, fruits, grains and healthy fats. eating 1800 calories of junk doesn' t work.

egg white egg yolk peppers & onions sauted in coconut oil salt pepper saute the peppers and onions in a skillet with a little coconut oil in a medium heat until nicely browned, remove and fry up the eggs, add to pepper mixture. enjoy. don't be afraid of the yolk.

I weigh myslelf every Saturday morning, stark naked. =) I record it and forget it and keep on trucking. It's just a number and a reference to see if you need to change it up or keep doing what you're doing. Beware, it will fluctuate. TOM seems to make that happen every 4 weeks.

That way of thinkings is what kept me fat. It also kept me on the Yo-yo diet/gain cycle. Eat. Live. Move. Enjoy life. Choose healthy foods and move daily.

I would think just exercising so strictly you'ld want to eat healthy.

Start lifting weights with cardio (elliptical). I know it sounds wrong but stop focusing on your thighs with squats, lunges, hip adductors/abductors. I found from personal experience, works.
