Update on Oil Pulling

Okay, so I admit it.  Oil pulling is weird.  It is probably the weirdest thing I have ever done and right now my hair is teal.
Here is how my first experience went-
I went downstairs and looked around for my coconut oil.  I actually have a very large jar of cold pressed, extra virgin, unrefined, and organic in my cupboard.  Since I use it to make cloth safe diaper creams and use it occasionally on my own skin and hair.  But, where I would normally keep it (with my crafting stuff) is not where my husband keeps it (in the kitchen stuff).  Who knows, maybe he does cook with it.  I don't, but it doesn't mean it is bad for you.  I am just so used to grabbing olive oil.
Anywho, back to my story.  I grabbed the big jar that is quite possibly bigger than my head and I opened it and looked inside.  Grabbing a large spoon, I grabbed some and wondered in my head how much I was supposed to gargle.  Deciding that the heaping tablespoon was enough, I put the lard like substance in my mouth.
It instantly started melting.  And no, it was not lard like in taste.  As a child of a baker, I have tried quite a few normal baking ingredients.  Instead, it was coconutty. Shocking, right?
Well, here is the part most people including myself issues with is not the actual taste.  Since it is after all coconut oil and should taste like such.
No, I suddenly had a semi-solid product in my mouth that was melting and very oily.  I also filled my mouth full.  I suddenly realized that with amount of saliva my mouth was suddenly producing there was no space in my mouth.  So I bit the "solid" oil if you want to call it that in half and spit it out.  Chewing the rest of the oil was no issue.  This makes it melt quicker so I was able to quickly swish it around in my mouth.
Sadly, I am supposed to be able to do this for 20 minutes and I have no yet achieved that.
