Weightloss aids

I haven't personally used chia seeds but I have friends who often toss them in smoothies, on salads, etc. Strictly regarding weight loss, chia seeds expand in your stomach, thus creating a sense of fullness. While this is good for keeping hunger at bay, having something that grows in volume in your stomach can, from what I would assume, cause digestion issues depending how sensitive you are. Again, I have no personal experience so I can't really tell you whether they would work for you or not. Green tea doesn't need to be hot to gain the benefits of it, I generally drink my ice cold as the body has to burn calories to heat the liquid up to core temperature for digestion. Green tea has many health benefits outside of weight loss, but it contains caffeine which helps to burn fat. Drinking green tea is a good habit to get into for its many health benefits whether or not it really helps you to lose weight.

As for advice, drinking water is probably the greatest thing you can do for your body regarding weight loss. Water takes up room in your stomach, making you feel full, which can fight off cravings and hunger. Try drinking an 8 oz. glass right before you eat any meal and you will find yourself becoming fuller quicker. Just remember slow and steady wins the race and good luck on your lifestyle change!

I take Body Fit Supplement. The caffeine energizes me daily....

Thanks! Considering the way I've eaten before now, I'm sure I can handle about anything in my stomach lol
And I'm working on the water thing but I super hate it as is, I can drink it but it's not enjoyable I guess because I'm used to carbonation and high sugar content. But no pain no gain right? ????

If you like sweet fizzy drinks, get some seltzer, and those flavor liquids like Mio or Crystal Light. I personally prefer water bc I don't like artificial sweetener tastes, but it's one way to incorporate fizzy drinks into your plan.

Having said that...the best weight loss aid...is eating at a caloric deficit. None of the supplements or special drinks or ketones or any of that stuff is going to make it happen. Caffeine may slightly boost metabolism, but, the more likely benefit is that it gives you a little extra energy so you can move more, and burn calories through activity.

Great. Now I have to figure out how to get a set of Oly Bling Weights.

Continue until fabulous.

Just so you know, the caffeine doesn't actually do anything. It isn't going to speed up calorie burn or cause weight loss. Some people take caffeine pills prior to working out because the energy boost from the caffeine helps them EXERCISE at a more intense level, leading to increased calorie burn from the workout. Taking the pill on its own without the exercise component will just make you more alert and aware of the fact that you spent money on the pills and you're still overweight.

THANKS! NOW I don't have to even check them out. I probably drink enough coffee and tea for that!

That is too funny. Actually has me slightly grinning, the real world equivalent of LOL on the internet. Caps are 'yelling' on internet forums. So, what QuietBloom is implying, is that you might already be 'amped up' from taking those supplements. wink

OH! THANKS! I HAD NO IDEA! TOO BAD ALL CAPS BOTHER SO MANY PEOPLE. SEE I AM HARD OF HEARING AND I HAVE TO TALK LOUD. AND PLUS I AM OLD AS HELL AND I DON'T GIVE A CRAP. BE SWEET YALL YOUNG ONES!

Here are some good weight loss aids...

HAHA!! it!!

OP--Yes, chia seeds and green tea are great for you, but I'm in with what everyone else has said. I personally like to drink a cup or two of hot green tea in the evening, and some of my friends on here put chia seeds in their protein smoothies. IMHO, you need to get used to drinking water first and foremost. It is one of the most simplest and easiet habits you can start doing on your weightloss journey and is free.

i eat chia seeds almost every day because they are low in calories and contain the omegas that i need in my diet . for me my cholesterol used to be through the roof. i started eating healthy and working out and incorporating things in my diet that would help reduce my cholesterol level and improve my blood pressure. chia seeds was one of the many items i put in to my diet. but as most people on here already said, eating chia seeds will not mean you will lose weight. adding it to your healthy diet will benefit you though
