Green tea worked for me

I saw something a couple of months ago on Oprah about green tea. Essentially they said to replace your morning coffee or tea with green tea and in 6 weeks you will lose 10 pounds.

So I tried it and I did lose weight. I don't know if it was really the green tea or a combination of eating healthy and kinda/sorta exercising, but I am 11 pounds lighter and one size smaller.

Just wanted to share.

Re: Green tea worked for me

I have heard that before too, although I'm not a big fan of tea.

Re: Green tea worked for me

I am going to try it starting tomorrow am

Re: Green tea worked for me

WOW, i did read that it speeds up your metabolism. I am willing to try it. I have only 10 more pounds to lose, and its not coming off! Lets keep this thread going with everyone that is trying this!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Green tea worked for me

Silly question.......but is Liptons Green Tea good enough?

Or is there a certain brand that is supposed to be better??

ok- I drank it this morning- I will keep you posted- I have 5 lbs more to lose and nothing has worked!

Re: Green tea worked for me

I started with lipton green tea this morning too...NO morning coffee...hard to wake up, but i'm willing to try it. I know coffee isnt good for you really.

Re: Green tea worked for me

Are you serious? I really have to try that!!!! How long did it take you to lose the 11 pounds? I am desperate and willing to try anything!!!!

Re: Green tea worked for me

Does anyone know if decaf green tea will work as well as regular?

It was literally six weeks to the day.

I just drank regular green tea, which has caffeine, in the morning. I also started eating breakfast (yogurt or oatmeal), which I never really did before.

I don't know if the non caffeine version works.

I worked out three times a week, but I was doing that before I started the tea.

I told a bunch of my friends and they are in week two, so I will let you know if it works for them.

Re: Green tea worked for me

ok, I am getting excited now

I work out and eat pretty good- and I can't lose the last 5 lbs

if this works I am going to be so happy!

Re: Green tea worked for me

i'm going to try it too!

Re: Green tea worked for me

I am going to try this out...seriously...I just need to drink the green tea with caffeine...

Re: Green tea worked for me

Re: Green tea worked for me

I just had a cup of decaf green tea this morning. Let's see how it goes!

Re: Green tea worked for me

This is an awesome suggestion! I am definitely trying this one.

Re: Green tea worked for me

I also took the green tea pill from GNC which is totally natural and I think it helped maintain the weight loss.

Re: Green tea worked for me

i friggin gained weight this week! grrrr! I only drank it for 3 days...and its almost the time of the month! I HAVE to lose 10 pounds by the wedding. A pound a month!! Its so hard!

Re: Green tea worked for me

I don't know if I lost weight yeat- but I feel better

I have more engery!

Re: Green tea worked for me

I just got a sample for iced green tea, its one of those on the go packets that you put in a water bottle. It tastes really good b/c its sweetened (w/splenda and lemon).

Do you think this will have the same effect as regular green tea??
