Tea isn't a fat burner, fat is burnt when your body needs energy, anyone who tells you otherwise is full of it.  Save your money and drink water and exercise.

"Green tea appears to boost metabolism slightly, but nobody has documented that drinking it helps people lose weight," says Adriane Fugh-Berman, M.D., an associate professor of physiology and biophysics at Georgetown University School of Medicine in Washington, D.C. Only one published study, a Swiss trial conducted on 10 men, has tested the effect of green tea on metabolism. Extrapolating the results of this research, Fugh-Berman says that if you drink four or five cups of green tea a day, "you might burn an extra 60 calories--but that's not a lot." It's about the same number of calories you'd burn in six minutes of jogging.\n\nPart of the metabolism boost can be attributed to the caffeine in green tea, but results from the Swiss study suggest that some other substance is also at work, since green tea seems to increase metabolism slightly more than the equivalent amount of caffeine.\n\nAlthough green tea itself isn't likely to stimulate weight loss, Fugh-Berman says, if you substitute the tea for lattes or juice, the calorie savings might help you slim down.

Drink green tea every morning because it will give a metabolism boost and only eat small meals through out the day limiting sugars and carbohydrates.  Big meals and fasting will only slow your metabolism and make you gain more weight in the long run

Never heard of this one ,,, interesting ,,, I lost 24 pounds and 2 3/4" in my waist in 30 days. I still have 27 more pounds to go which will be gone before Christmas. I did this on a no diet weight loss plan that is natural and healthy and only requires about 10-15 minutes of your time daily. You do not skip meals or have to eat or buy special foods and I even lost this without exercise. As far as a fat flush plan ... Hmmmmm

Antioxidants in green and black tea are supposed to help to support your immune system. Also, if you drink a full glass of tea 1/2 hour before a meal, you will feel fuller and you will mot eat as much, thus helping you loose weight.

Losing 2 lbs. a week is really hard to do. But there is only one way to lose fat: You have to eat less than you burn.\n\nA pound of fat = 3,500 calories. So to burn a pound of fat you have to burn 3500 cals above and beyond what you're eating. \n\nTo lose a pound of fat a week, you need to burn 500 cals a day (above and beyond what you are eating.) To lose 2 lbs of fat a week, you'd have to burn 1000 cals a day. It can happen, it's just really hard to do.\n\nRemember that you don't want to starve yourself. If you don't eat enough calories your metabolism will slow and your body will start to break down muscle. You may lose weigtht this way, but you will lose lean weight as well as fat weight. It's not very healthy!\n\nSo, To answer your question depends on your resting metabolic rate. roughly 1500/day for women and 2000/day for men. This is your bear minimum for the day... you shouldn't eat less than that. Then up your exercise and you're off toward weight loss!!!

Caffeine is bad for loosing weight because all that soda goes to your belly and you get a soda belly...but you do need some caffeine, they say it actually helps to loose weight if you limit it, they say to drink a few sips every hour or so, so don't quit it completely just limit it....good luck...tea, especially green tea, helps you loose weight and it has a bit of caffeine..

It scares me a little that you seem so young, your body is still growing so don't cut to many calories. Tae Bo is a great workout, paired with less refined sugar and all the fruit and veggies you can eat!  Also, cravings last about 15 minutes.  When a craving for sugar or something not to healthy strikes, drink a big glass of water and take a walk or fold laundry or anything that will keep your mind occupied until the craving passes.  YOU CAN DO IT!!  The only way to lose weight and keep it off is to change your eating habits, for good.  2 months is plenty of time to see results and make a healthy change for the future.

According to Arthur Agaston, M.D. (the guy that created the diet) in his book "The South Beach Diet: Good Fats, Good Carbs Guide":\n\n"Brewed tea, herbal" is listed as "a", where:\n\na=allowed\nA=Avoid\nL=Limited\nV=Very Limited\nG=Good\n\nSo, yes, green tea is ALLOWED, but you're only supposed to have 1 cup a day.

Do the following for 2/3 consecutive days: eat only fruit and veg as much as you want but exclude peas, beans, corn, potatoes and bananas.  You can have stir fry with a little olive oil and salad with a little dressing.  Avoid alcohol.  Drink at least 8 glasses of water or unsweetened tea/herbal tea/unsweetened juice each day.  Make yourself a pot of vegetable soup and include cabbage and celery.  Eat as much and as often as you want.  You will lose 2lbs each day and you will also be detoxing your body.  Take a good multi-vitamin.  Do not continue this for any more than 3 days before returning to a normal, healthy diet.  \n\nI used to do rigorous workouts three times a week and it did nothing to reduce my weight.  The only thing that worked was eating often and healthily.  Eating every couple of hours keeps the metabolism going and drinking enough water/fluid stops pockets of fat from building up.\n\nhttp://www.freewebs.com/spiritualhealing

I lost 143 lbs over 7 years ago and have kept it off-and I did it all naturally-no medical intervention! Since I was so overweight all I could do was walk. Forget about hardcore exercise! You need to take a 30min walk every night. Walk as fast as you can handle and move those arms! As far as food, all I did was cut out all fast food, junk food (snacks), soda and juice. Drink only water and unsweetened tea but mainly water!ALOT OF IT! Eat 5-6 times per day but very small meals. For instance here is a typical day back then for me: 6am-1 pack oatmeal and cup hot green tea. 9am- fat free cottage cheese and diced apple 12pm-chicken breast with salsa on top and piece whole grain bread 3pm-very small handful of almonds and raisins 6pm-chicken breast and small side salad with only lettuce tomatoes carrots and a fat free italian dressing. DRINK WATER THRU OUT THE DAY. If your anything like me I used to HATE water but as I made myself drink it- my body craved it! Still does! I am very proud of you for wanting to do this! As you begin to lose weight and fell better you will naturally start to change up your exercise routine as well-you will want the challenge as you begin to feel healthy and strong! At 31 years old now I feel healthier, sexier, and happier than I have ever felt in my whole life and let me tell you... I LOOK GREAT! GOOD LUCK- YOU CAN DO IT!

Weight loss only occurs when your calorie input is less than your calories output. This means if you eat 1200 calories in a day you need to output more than 1200 calories in a day. \n\nIf you want to do this it is for life so you need to totally change your way of eating and exercising. This is not a diet rather than a healthy eating plan for life. So no more talking diet cause it means time limit. \n\nHere are the golden rules: \nInitially cut down to 1200 (women) - 1500 (men) calories. \nExercise 6 times per week for 1 hours a day. Do three weight sessions and three cardio sessions. No gym involved if you don't have the access. \nDon't eat carbs after 4pm, never eat carbs within 2 hours of exercise or within 1 hour of exercise. \nDrink 3 litres of water per day. You can have a green tea at the end of the day. \nLimit your fruit in take to 2 pieces per day. \nNever eat dinner after 6pm.\nAdopt of low GI eating plan this is sustainable for life!\nMake low fat dairy choices \n\nFollow this menu plan as a suggestion for the next two days: \nBreakfast 7am - 1 cup hot water w lemon\n20 minutes later have a bowel of oats w water (no honey) OR\nfruit salad w low GI soy yogurt\nSnack 10am - pear or apple (both low GI)\nLunch 12.30pm - muligrain sandwich w 50g tuna & salad (no butter)\nSnack 3pm - skim berry smoothie (no honey or banana) plenty of ice, 1/2 cup skim milk & 1/4 cup yogurt\nDinner 5.30pm - 120g grilled lean meat/fish/prawns w spinach salad & mixed vegies (no whites, carbs)\n\nExercise is must be intense. Refer to www.bodybuilding.com for your weights routine. Never do weights two consecutive days have a cardio day in between. \n\nCardio needs to include running, go hard up stair wells and cycling. If you have access to a gym include boxing and spin classes as well. You get the most benefits from exercise when your body is totally fatigued and this is when you see changes. \n\nTo maintain you can increase calories to 1500 (women) - 1800 (men) and reduce exercise sessions to 3-4 times per week. If weight creeps up again due to holiday period etc.. go back to 1200 (women) - 1500 (men) cal and 6 sessions again. \n\nGood luck it worked for me it can work for anyone.

The only sensible weight loss program is by changing your life style regarding eating habits and exercising.\nMost weight loss teas will hurt more than they help.

No it's not baking powder  that does it.  It's baking soda and not alone but with lecithin\nIt  helps the lecithin break down the hard body fat quicker!  Dandelion tea will work too if you don't put any sweetener in it! There are many herbal teas available in your local health food store that can help you lose weight.  Be sure you really need to lose weight. Most any worker in the Healthfood store will tell you if your right to lose weight if you tell him or her!\nI find Clover tea works best for me!  What works fast on one might not do as well on another!
