Green Tea helps Lose Weight!!

I have been experimenting with green tea ( or rather downing mugfuls)!!! This is what I did and what I noticed. Instead of the large mug of tea ( the ordinary type) with milk and sugar, I started drinking a mug of green tea in the mornings. No sugar. No milk. And guess what my weight is going down slowly and steadily. It supposedly increases the rate of metabolism. I checked with a doc and she said it was ok. No harm done. Besides the Chinese and Japanese have been doing it for centuries. They take it warm, I believe. I dunno if the no sugar, no milk has anything to do with it. But then, I am not restricting myself when it comes to other foods. If any of you have similar experiences, do pen a comment.

Advantages of Drinking Tea Black!!!

Drinking black /green tea also helps to lose weight. Tea without milk is full of antioxidants...Also if you love tea, each time you drink tea with milk, you are injesting milk which is fattening. Lime tea with honey or sugar is good. I've heard that Chinese drink alot of green tea which keeps them trim...
