OMG!….No!
I have bombed my earlier attempts to lose weight.
I thought that I would eat less (about 1600 – 1800cals/day) and workout 3-5 times a week and it would all come together. And like I said in an earlier post, that about after 2.5 months of this, it became painfully clear that it wasn’t working.
Went for a hike this morning and it was glorious outside!! Wanted to take our youngest daughter out to breakfast and she said she would rather come home and save the money. (how did I get so lucky??)However, knowing how her mama cooks…these crepes are probably the reason why. Once you start cooking better foods, you will notice when eating out things do not have the same flavor they use to. Your palate will change and that is good because the less toxic you are the more sensitive to flavors (real flavors, not just sugar & salt…the main seasoning used in most foods) you will become!

Recipe for coconut whipping cream is here:
This easy-to-make, must-have-staple will be used frequently when you commit yourself to a dairy-free lifestyle. I seriously, do not miss real whipping cream any longer. The benefits of Coconut Milk are numerous, the MCFA’s (medium chain fatty acids) are wonderous and do not increase inflammation in the body like dairy does! I have a couple tricks up my sleeve that have made this process a little easier than when I started. So, please whip it up and enjoy!!

Who knows??? If you are crazy for this stuff, it may be a one man show, unless you are feeling generous...:)

The key to success in this recipe is all in the preparation.
I have tried almost all coconut milks out there and have found Trader Joe's Coconut Cream to be the best option with the best turn out and least waste.
Also, the longer you refrigderate...the better. Many sites will say 24 hours, but really I find again that anything after 48 is best. Also, if you are in a pinch and forgot to do this ahead of time, you can always throw in the freezer for 20-25 minutes. Just want to make sure contents have thoroughly cooled (not froze) before whipping.
Lastly, this trick has been handed down to me by my mama. Before you whip your cream, freeze a metal bowl for about 20-30 minutes. This will ensure that your cream stays cool while you whip the crap out of it!
