I buy my essential oils and vitamin E oil on ebay!  I also put a few drops of lavender essential oil and a few drops of tea tree oil in my bath water when I want to relax and have a good nights sleep. the tea tree of course if for the skin and the lavender has a calming  effect as well as a great smell. I use lavender scented things (laundry soap, dryer sheets, shampoo, etc) because mosquito's hate it! rather than spray myself with poison, I make a homemade repellent with essentials oils and witch hazel (also good for the skin). I know it works since I've only had 2 bites in the past 4 years since I started using it!

one of the things I hated about aging was my saggy neck. I read a lot about what happens to our skin as we age and created a lotion made up of coconut oil, vitamin E liquid and tea tree essential oil (tea tree is good for the skin). I put this on my neck and face every day before my shower and held a hot washcloth to it. as I lost weight and applied this each day, I began to see a BIG difference in my neck and face. I am very happy with the results so far.

as far as motivation, I can tell you I love this way of eating. I eat foods I really like and pretty much whatever I want. but I do only eat once a day. I am not hungry although I occasionally want to eat in the evening. I know my body. I can eat donuts and pie and pizza and burgers and bacon and eggs. I cannot eat cake! I love to cook and make a lot of stuff from scratch. I try to avoid processed foods. i eat real butter instead of margerine which is not food. recently, I made some homemade strawberry jam. omg, soooo good! simple and easy and no chemicals or preservative.

it is easier for me than a lot of people because I live alone. last oct. 5th I weighed 200 lbs. today I weigh 166 lbs. for someone to lose 34 lbs in under a year, and eat the foods I eat, I think that is great!

Re: [fast5] Re: New to Fast Five!



Thank you! I used to eat a tablespoon everyday and put it on my face. I have not done that in a while. I am still struggling with staying on F-5. I think I need to go back and read the book to get super motivated.

hi linda, while there are many benefits listed for the use of coconut oil, I haven't seen anything referring to breast cancer. as far as cholesterol, I was reading a web site that said "Studies in both humans and rats show that coconut oil improves important risk factors like Total, LDL and HDL cholesterol, which may translate to a reduced risk of heart disease."

personally, I use coconut oil for cooking, oil pulling, and making homemade cleansers for my face and hair. oil pulling is swishing coconut oil in your mouth (do not swallow) for 5 mins ( I think ) each morning. it is supposed to be beneficial for the teeth and gums.
