Yes Maria I haven’t done a lot of substituting with applesauce but have heard about others doing that!

Wow, I was expecting applesauce. I would have never thought about coconut oil. That’s good to know.

I would love to know the answer to that question. I don’t like grapefruit but since my juicing and fast I have come to appreciate it and usually let it sit and ripe a while longer than most people would. Plus I buy the ruby reds.

Nice post. I have found there are quite a few excellent bodyweight exercises anyone can execute without equipment. These exercises are great for toning the body in addition to boosting fitness. When on the road and staying in hotels I use tricep dips, bodyweight squats, press ups, burpees and mountain climbers. All effective exercises for keeping fit and toned.

Hi Val ! There are no “fat-burning” foods. If so I would have my house full of them! My best advice is to maintain a balanced diet and be sure to include a variety of fruits and veggies. As I listed above Grapefruits have so many health benefits but speeding up metabolism isn’t one of them. This brings a great question to light, what does affect our metabolism? Come back I will add new post on this soon.

Oh Val, that reminds me of my childhood! My mom did the same thing for us kids. Now my mouth is REALLY watering for grapefruit!

I love grapefruit and my kiddos sometimes enjoy them as well (they seem to go through phases )). I slice them in half and cut the sections away from the membranes…then sprinkle with a little brown sugar. When we’re done we squeeze out the juice that’s left and drink that…sometimes pour it into our OJ to tone it down a bit if it’s too tart. Super yummy. I’ve heard that grapefruit has the ability to maintain and/or increase your rate of metabolism. Do you know if there is any validity to that, Angie??
