I always wanted to now...Whats up with Green Tea? I bought some from the supermarket, hoping it would help loose weight, It didn't. (that was before MFP) But is there a certain kind you buy? My husbands aunt drank some type of green tea n lost weight..She won't tell me what brand..Just a question.. Oh yeah, && I might as well share that before I got pregnant w #2 I was 230, My daughter is 2 months old & I'm back down to 234..((from like 280!!)) 54 more lbs to go!!

    I have some friends that swear by "ballerina's tea". It clears them right out. But, frankly, it doesn't sound like too pleasant an experience.

    I don't find the teas work because they are dehydrating. The biggest loser show says that caffine helps because it gives you more energy to workout and slightly raises the metalbolism.

    Green tea helps get rid of excess water weight and warm liquids help you feel full so you don't eat as much. My dad is drinking Wu Yi but I don't know if it is helping him. Then somethings are a mind thing- if you think it works it will.
