Coconut Oil for Weight Loss

I have gained 5 pounds using the VCO and ACV. What is up? I thought I would lose weight, but I have gained. I crave salty foods. Has anyone else experienced this?

I cannot find a way to take Coconut Oil internally. I cannot take it as a solid or liquid, either way I gag, any suggestions? Thank you!

Hi! I am intrigued by the idea of using coconut oil for weight loss. Do you need to consume it separate from other foods? If you combine it with other foods, are some better than others for digestion and absorption purposes? Thanks! Nico

Hi, I've had the opposite reaction to be honest, since taking coconut oil I have been suffering from constipation. Otherwise im quite happy with the coconut oil, It's taking time to work its effect on my skin but I'm being patient and hopeful :-)

I have been taking organic coconut oil for about 8 weeks now. I have high blood pressure and take medication and my blood pressure is the best that it has been in years right now! I have been taking 2-3 tablespoons a day of the coconut oil in my coffee in the mornings. I have been reading that you really have to watch your carbohydrate intake in order to lose weight with the coconut oil. I have not seen weight loss yet, but I am still adjusting my carbs and calorie intake. I tried some of the coconut oil supplements at first and started gaining weight. I then read that there is not enough of the oil in the supplements to really help. I then switched to coconut oil that I bought in the grocery store, but when I started buying coconut oil from a health food store is when I really noticed a difference. I also use coconut oil on my skin and it is wonderful! I feel much better and no longer ache in the mornings when I get up. I have a lot more energy and have been able to go back to the gym to exercise. The type of coconut oil that you purchase, the dosage, and your diet all seem to effect the results of taking the coconut oil internally.

in what form did you take this and how much?

More kilos with Coconut Oil: I have tried it for 10 days and today my weight was 2 or 3 kilos higher than the last time. Apart from the oil, I have been going to the gym every day, what is not working with me? How do people lose weight? are you also on a strict diet? PLEASE HELP!!! Thanks!

Hi Theresa, How much of a time gap do you have between having your coconut oil and your meal? Thanks.

can you advise how / when / in what quantity did you take the coconut oil to achieve weight loss? Thanks.

Well, i was just wondering if, the Coconut oil! gave anyone problems? Like having to go to the bath room! Things like that. Are there any side effects? Oh! I mix sugar and coconut oil or olive oil and use it in the shower! makes the skin soft while removing your dead skin!

I also started taking EVCO to lose weight but gained weight instead, I have also never been this heavy. I stopped taking it but now I am stuck with the extra weight I gained.

I have been on VCO for 2 weeks. it at first made me have flu or food poison symptons, and a terrible lower back ache. I read this was just because it was detoxing my body. after that was over, I continued taking it. yes, it gave me engery and it helped with my IBS. but I have had to stop since I have GAINED a whopping 12 lbs. I thought this stuff was suppose to make you LOSE weight not GAIN! I have now stopped and I hope to be able to lose this weight. I have never been this big...I will no longer believe anything I read on the internet about any natural product.

My husband also gets diarrhea when taking CO...it's your body detoxing/healing.
