It is bad only in the sense that you are eating a lot of one type of fat. Over time that will create an imbalance. Your young so that "time" could take a while, but it's best to add some other types of fats in if you can. And i hear you on the hair/skin/nails. My nails are like an inch long all the time. Dani! Lindsay hit it right on the head with her answer. How are you mama? You hangin' in there? Lindsay! Thank you for the answer! Grapeseed oil is primarily an O6 so there is nothing great about it. I would look for a more O3 friendly oil. Velma!! YAY!! You made it to my blog! Big hugs! Michelle! My next menu planning post will cover it for you! And i love CC oil too...I need therapy!LOL:o) Diarra! It is bad only in the sense that you are eating a lot of one type of fat. Over time that will create an imbalance.

Recently started on coconut butter and mmm, mmm, mmm! I am *really* looking forward to hearing your thoughts on mixing good fat and starch/carb (maybe in your next post which I am just about to read). I get confused a lot about whether I can have a good fat/good carb/protein meal while trying to lean out (which I just started doing yesterday nutrition/training-wise).

Any feelings on grapeseed oil? Also, where is that recipe for the mango/coconut protein smoothie, woman? :) Dani, I am assuming that 3,2,2 means that she is recommending for us to have 3 servings from the thin group and 2 servings from each the meaty & pasty groups within a week’s time…I think! :)

After diving into the cookies and almost drowning in chocolate ice cream after my first competition I followed what you said at the Nu seminar and started loading up on the fats and protein. Avocados really helped me curb that appetite and find my way back. Now, is it just me or are these oils hard to find? I managed to get my hands on the whole foods brand of Udo oil (YUUKKKKK!), which I could only take if I hold my nose and repeat, "Nice skin, Nice skin." Jodi, I'm not gonna lie, on a daily basis I look at my skin and nails and hair & I can't believe it's mine. I struggled with serious dry skin and cracking and all sorts of skin horrors throughout my life until...these fats. Question: For myself, how ah bad is it to ah have two avocados, yes 2 whole ones per day, not every single day but to help with the overeating??? AVOCADOS saved my life!

Coconut oil is 65 % MCT oil of which 50% is lauric acid and 15% is a combo of caprylic and capric acid. MCT oil is 100% oil of which 75% is usually caprylic and 25% is capric. There is no lauric in there. Two problems with that: that's not how it occurs in nature so you will not reap the same benefits and 2) lauric is the most important part of coconut oil. So, in a (coco) nutshell, lol, I like only real coconut oil. HTH! Kim: I might have to post the recipe. Two other people hit me up for it already!LOL Pam: I am not a fan of MCT oil.
