Coffee with Coconut Milk to Lose Weight


This morning's coffee with coconut milk (cream) in it. Before I used to put instant hot chocolate in my coffee, but as a 'real food' alternative that I absolutely love, coconut milk is a yummy way to start my day. I feel like it stabilizes my wonky blood sugar issues too (I tend toward hypoglycemia).

Edited to add: In Eat Fat Lose Fat, Sally Fallon describes how coconut fat does actually give the sensation of being full and reduce cravings. I had noticed this about a month after I had switched from {industrial food} hot chocolate to {real food} coconut milk.  Originally I had cut out dairy to clear up my breastfeeding son's eczema, but losing the postpartum weight without cravings was an unexpected but welcome bonus!

My favorite morning cup is jasmine green tea with coconut milk and stevia. I have a major sweet tooth! If I use stevia a few times a day in iced tea, coffee, or tea I don't crave other sweets.

That's good. I am loving coconut milk, I find that when I started eating more coconut my craving for sweets went down.
