Thanks Westtexas, THIS was what I was thinking of regarding coconut oil - I had forgotten that it was referencing refined, not virigin. I do like the mouth feel of the virgin - and my cookware is lower temp stainless steel anyway. I do want to try the refined when I restock my coconut oil supply.
Have you tried Walnut or Avocado oil for cooking?
On an unrelated note - my weight is now lower than it has been in 2 years I still have the same calorie targets but as I eat more good fats and keep my carbs low - my weight is slowly dropping. It is under 130 for the first time since I was over-doing things in 2010 - AND I am not having to kill myself to do it. I feel very good, my energy levels are fine. I've been told that it will go faster if I drop my carbs even lower, but right now I am happy with my rate of progress given my activity level. Getting enough sleep is still hard - and that is part of the process as well.
