    Green tea seems to have helped me a lot! I usually drink 8 or 16 oz. a day.

    8oz in a cup in the US. So every glass you drink of tea is 8oz or so depending on the cup size. But general rule of thumb.

    I've been drinking 2 a day (without sugar) for nearly a week and it is definitely making a difference to my metabolism, and it cleanses the system too.

    https://www.google.com/search?q=8+ounces+to+cups&rlz=1C1CHKZ_enUS440US440 - Google has a feature where you can type X(measurement) to (measurement) and it will convert it for you. But if you're using "cups" to mean whatever "drinking cup" you have, that could be anything from 6 ounces to 14 ounces, quite a wide range. I'd suggest putting water in measuring cups and seeing how much your drinking cups actually hold.

    I''m not really sure how helpful it is. I have heard that it makes your metabolism faster, but I don't know. I drink green tea a couple days a week though because it tastes good and I get tired of drinking nothing but water all the time.

    I just started drinking green tea... not for dieting purposes actually. My mom wanted me to try it and i liked it. It has several health benefits, so why not!

    For ME I've found when I drink green tea i feel less hungry and it helps with digestion.

    You could take green tea extract as well. I am not sure if green tea really helps with metabolism but it can't hurt...

    at one point I was drinking at least 3 cups a day. A cup before or after every meal and maybe one or two others throughout the day. When I do that, I do notice a bit more weight loss and I've also noticed my waist seems to shrink a bit more. I agree with someone above that it helps digestion as well as bumps up your metabolism.

    Good for you! I haven't been sick for a while and I work at a school! Lol. Anyways, I drink one big cup in the morning (replacement of coffee) and I drink about two-three cups during the day.
