coconuts - how to????

[mellisamouse]

Hello, and thanks in advance! :) I have finally discovered the joy of the coconut! Wow, talk about speeding up metabolism! I have actually been gaining weight from excersise, but now matter how much weight I lost before, I ALLWAYS had a MAJOR spare tire, and pregnant loking belly. Well, around 5 days ago I started eating coconuts, and wow! My middle is going away! I am comfortably wearing shorts right now, that I couldn't zip up 5 days ago, even though the scale is moving up!

Anyhoo, enough of my bragging....I was wondering HOW do I make coconut milk? I tried usung my juicer, and that just made coconut fluff! lol! Help!!!!

Also, did anyone else notice dramatic changes after adding coconu to they're diet????? Just curious! ;)

thanks!

Hi, I can't help you with the coconut milk question but I will comment that I think I have actually gained weight since adding coconuts into my daily diet!! granted I sometimes consume up to 4 a day but I have put on 7lbs since May...very unhappy about it. Still same raw diet but have cut out all dehydrated foods for the summer in an effort to drop those lbs!! I love them though and feel overall better on the inside.

Glad your enjoying them!

Give it some time and lots of people will chime in I have no doubt!
Raw Priestess uses some every day I believe.
There is a video on how to open the young ones here somewhere ** looks under the papers on her desk** Just Kidding hehe

Go to the Banana button up above and put young coconut in the search and you should get all the info you need :)

I have 2 left in my fridge right now.

I used the water and meat for a batch of Raw Corn Chowder. Oh was it yummy :)

mmm I only have half of one a day, because I gain weight too easily, but mmm I can see why you would want 4 that's 4 sure! ;)
