    Just make sure you stir the tea counterclockwise to counteract the lemony fatburnitrons in the tea and you should be all set. Counterclockwise, counteract — see? Solid science.

    This. :drinker:

    It's a myth. Eating at maintenance will keep you slim.

    No that will keep you right where you are. Eating at a deficit will keep you slim

    If you're already slim, then maintenance will keep you there. A deficit will make you continue to lose.

    All these jokester's aside, I've found that drinking tea in general helps curb my appetite. Since it takes a few minutes to prepare it gives me time to think about whether or not I'm actually hungry. It's also typically warm or hot and this has a soothing filling affect on my stomach when I've been eating lots of salad and am now craving a noodle dish. :)

    I agree. I count tea with a scoop of powdered milk as one of my snacks for the day. I make 20-32 oz. at a time. It's warm, I add a ton of no-calorie sweetener to mine, & with the milk powder it has a little bit of protein. It will also last me about an hour (with warm ups) & counts toward my fluid for the day. So, if you are drinking hot tea & it helps fill you up like it does me, & you are then eating less food, it could help keep you slim.

    Wow, a magic elixir! Funny we haven't seen this on the news or in the paper. Another myth busted.

    I don't know about the lemon, but anything hot and calorie free to sip on all day keeps me out of the fridge. Probably an oral fixation thing. No one get cute and ask me anything stupid related to that comment, mmkay?
