Okay girls. Stop what you’re doing right now. This is major. Maj. Or. Coconut oil. I swear by this stuff. Literally I use it on everything. Sunburns, hair mask, face mask, night time face lotion, makeup remover, eye cream, lip chap, and lastly… my food.

Paleo Chocolate Cookie

I was heavier a few years ago… {pics […]
