Green tea diet
I started drinking green tea in hawaii ( i brought my own tea bags) ..i saw nothing happen....i didnt give up and kept brewing and drinking it...THEN, about a month ago, it started to happen....my excess weight from the steroids and french fries started coming off!!! I have lost 14 lbs...only 5 more to go to get to my pre-chemo weight!! Im going to have to ask lisa to send my clothes back..(she took a whole lot of stuff when she was out last month)...im an indian giver.. a THIN indian giver  |

| How does this diet work?? |
| drink 2 big size glasses of home brewed green tea, it can have flavor...i like the peach....i use 5 tea bags to a full pot of coffee..brew it in there...then pour into a pitcher with 2 splendas.....drink two a day.... |
| I guess I'm still skeptical. Personally, I don't think green tea helps anyone lose weight rather than the discipline of not eating a snack and filling someone up on a liquid instead. The problem for MOST people is not taking in enough water.
Either way, it's so great you're losing all that extra weight!!! I can't wait for bikini pics!  |
If I remember correctly my father-in-law used this and he spent a lot of time in the bathroom  . |
| I have tried green tea and it makes me gag....I have found I maintain if I drink plenty of no sugar soft drinks...saying that I have drunk hardly any today....but different things suit different folks. so well done! |
| WOOHOOOOOOOOOOO! You GO Girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| THAT MADE ME JUMP! |
| Darcy, CONGRATS!!! I'm a firm believer in green tea too! I don't really know if its help me lose weight, but it certainly has not hurt. I'm devoted to Arizona Diet Green Tea. It tastes great. |
It certainly has turned all of your posts green, too.  |
| <snickers>
sometimes the corny jokes work. |
| Fantastic Darcy. Both you and Elissa where tiny to begin with so I do really feel the green tea helped in your weightloss and my own. I love the green tea. I drink coffee through out the morning and drink green tea the rest of the day. I have not drank any pop (soda) in over a year.
I am sure Lisa will be happy to send back your clothes knowing how great your weight loss is and to make you happy to be able to slink back into your before chemo clothes. I am so happy to hear you are doing so much better. |

 That's not all!!!! |
This is not "The Green Tea Diet", this is "Elissa's Green Tea Diet". I came up with it, might as well take credit for it. 
You must cut out all soda. Sorry! That is the ONLY change I made with my diet. I did not stop snacking, I did not watch my calorie intake. I am not a person who can diet or count calories. Brewed Tea works the best. I did not have any luck with the bottled powdered stuff. Any flavor Green Tea will work. Green Tea speeds your metabolism up to a healthy rate. So if you weight gain was caused by a slowing metabolism this should work for you. I would drink 2-3 cups a day.... always in the morning, due to the caffeine in the Tea. I also have sleeping problems so I end my caffeine intake early in the day. It's been months now and I even stopped drinking the tea for a while. No weight has been gained back. I did add Soda back in..... after the weight loss, drinking it here and there. EDIT: My best friend in Chicago has lost close to 20 lbs with my "Diet". She only has a few more lbs to go to her goal weight. When she tells people how she lost the weight they think she is nuts. |
