 Ossie-Sharon 10 years ago | Hi, indas1. I responded to your post. I recommended some modifications to your menu, including cutting back on carbs and an increase in physical activity. Yes, you can use coconut oil instead of butter, but be sure not to overdo the amount. Coconut oil is not necessarily healthier than butter, but it is not worse. It is important to note that “healthy” claims on package labels are not necessarily a reliable indicator of health value, as they are trying to sell the product. Confusing labels are part of the reason people struggle with their health. |
 indas1 10 years ago | I don’t know where I’m going wrong, I posted a copy of my menu but got no reply. I am all bloated & swelled up or is just fat? Should I just persevere? It’s awful being fat for Xmas!!!
Maybe I’m eating too large a portion of carbs.
Can I use hardened coconut oil instead of butter as a free spread? It says on the jar that it has no cholesterol& is healthy. |
