The Green Tea Week Challenge!

[Rara Lara]

I have vowed to drink at least 3 cups of green tea a day for the next week, anyone care to join me?!

 

[Sealmylips]

I'll join you

Have had 2 today already - so might aswell! (Green Tea with Pomegranate at the mo )

 

[Rara Lara]

yay im not alone! i have had 3 mint green teas today, i have used all my milk allowance so looks like il be having more green tea today! xx

 

[Sealmylips]

Thats what i find great about Green Tea, i can still have milk or cheese! (on ee)

My fave is Green Tea with Mango, never tried the mint one, will have to give that a whirl!

Just looking at your journey so far and you're doing amazing! I'm re-starting at home, as we moved and i don't like the consultant here (miss my old consultant and group badly!) :cry:Nothing personal though, i juts don't find it motivating and on the 4 occaisons i went back in Nov only 8 ppl stayed to group. and none of them seemed interested lol! SO i got bored, got ill and fell off the wagon! Ha ha! x

 

[Rara Lara]

Oh not seen a mango one yet, i shall look out for it
Good luck hun xxx

 

[KellySW]

I'd love to join you!
I have had one cup today (green tea with cranberry) + you have just motivated me to have another cup
I have heard it can be great for weight loss, has anyone had a big weight loss from drinking green tea?

I drink green tea everyday, I have the plain one. I drink about 5 cups throughout the day and try to have over a litre of water as well. I don't drink normal tea so it tastes alright to me. I read it boosts your metabolism and drinking 5 cups a day can burn you an extra 150 calories. You have to let it stew for a couple of minutes and drink it hot to reap the benefits. X

ooh, please can I join you ladies?? am partial to the odd cup of green tea w/pomegranate and green tea w/cranberry!!

I've posted a couple of threads about green tea and weight loss and noone ever seems very interested so it's awesome to finally find some people who are

I'm seconding Kelly's question: has anyone had a big weight loss from drinking green tea?

I recently finished a temporary job and on Friday I brought home my things (box of green tea included!) and I hate to admit it but it is still sitting in the car! (lazy bones!) - I'll go and grab it now and have my first of the day.. xx

 

[Sealmylips]

I find the weeks i drink green tea avidly that i lose atleast 2lbs more than say if i was having a hot day in summer and drank ice cold water

I love my Greem tea, i'm also partial to a cup of Cinnamon and Spiced Apple tea before bed and i adore Earl Grey with Vanilla - all the family think i am weird lol! x

Ooh I may do this as well, I like green tea but I sometimes forget about it even though I've got it in my cupboards! The only downside I've found is that I noticed when I have lots of it in one day I feel a bit queasy - maybe there's something in it that doesn't sit well with me. I might try flavoured ones as I've only ever had plain!

I have been drinking green tea avidly for the last few weeks but only for the last week I have drank 3 plus cups a day previously was only one. Have lost 2 pound rather than the previous one pound wondered if it was the green tea? Hard to tell as I have also had scan bean everyday for the last week - wish i had done it one at a time!

I started to drink chinese tea (oolong tea) this week , hope it will make a difference because before i was only drinking 3 cans of diet coke a day!

 

[samjay123]

I set this as one of my goals for the week. So I'll deffo join you all!! 3 down for me. Going to brew another now ;-)

 

[Roziee]

All super markets. They do a selection box too! So you could try a few and see what you like! :-D think it's twinings brand.

 

[kellythepeg]

I've bought the fruity ones from lots of different places..asda and morrisons definitely stock them so you could try there?

I've only had one cup so far today eek..!! Must squeeze in a couple more..!! Hope you've all done better than I have.. xx

 

[kimmie2709]

ok....my super skinny friend drinks this EVERYDAY....and I had a massive syn fest at the weekend for OH 30th (old fart p)...so i think im going to give it a go...along with 777 challenge...im only going to start with the one cup a day tho at first as im sure I can remember getting stomach cramps when I drank it last time....and I dont fancy having that along with what the 777 does to my body lol

 

[Fruitybabe]

Thanks guys doing my shop in a few days will have a look then. Will stick to the plain until then

 

[samjay123]

Holland and Barrett sell green tea capsules too. I take one every morning with breakfast and berocca. I don't know if it makes a difference but I do it anyway lol.
