    ^^^ This.

    No matter how much we wish the stories of magical power to aid in weight loss are just that. Magic....either that or you end up with just losing water weight from a good ol' flush out.

    If you follow a good exercise regime and eat healthy along with drinking the detox water it does work....

    nope. utter nonsense.

    Add me to the list of "no". If someone claims there is, they're probably selling it.

    Magic weight loss drink? Water. If you don't get enough, you'll retain fluids and bloat. Drink enough, you'll pee it all away.

    Not fat loss, mind you. But ounces and inches.

    Sorry but no. I just drink tea because I like the taste. Worst move ever was going into Teavana. There is not magic water or diet pills. The body doesn't need them or want them. Now the mint chocolate tea from Teavana...yeah my body wants that.

    Ooh missed the bit about possible muscle gain from a drink.....bit out of my area but would those Bulk me up like the Hulk protein powders they sell at health food places be what you are thinking of....????

    Other than that I am stumped.....if you like the flavour of tea go for it.....I'm finding there are myriads of choices and they are a really nice change from coffee and don't need milk or any sweetening.

    Like the protein powders and protein drinks and those drinks they sell at gyms that are supposed to help you put on muscle and such.

    In for magic protein powder for gainz. :noway:

    Unfortunately, OP, if there were any drinks that would cause weight loss or muscle gain none of us would be here. We would all be at our perfect weight and looking amazing.

    End of the day, we all need to put in the work to get what we want. Personally, I would love something magic to undo all the harm I've done to myself over the years, but the reality is that not stuffing my face and getting off my butt is the only combination of things that will take the weight back off. And it will take time.

    Caddy.....Welcome to MFP.

    If I can just add this......honey, save your money and don't get hooked into anything that promises miracle results. The truth is there is NO magic tea, berry, powder or potion that will take the place of hard work, patience and the science of CICO.

    Hornsby pointed out the protein powders may help with macro's etc but that man's muscles comes from what I would guess to be sheer bloody hard work - picking up heavy *kitten* and putting it down again and a solid eating programme full of proteins, carbs and fat. All out of Bubblegum <3 ......is simply a Wonder Woman......again HER hard work and dedication.....and again I'm guessing this but she probably didn't buy into anything that sounded to good to be true.

    For your sake it's wise to be sceptical of any products that promise to make you the most beautiful person on the planet with more money, sex appeal, stellar personality and the ability to fly at will.....advertisers know full well that humans want everything NOW and they market their brand to the fullest.

    Good luck.

    Err... No. The first two maybe, the tea? Nope.

    Isn't it interesting that all these "detoxes" to lose weight some how incorporate diet and exercise lol
