  • Love tea, especially the Stash varieties, (send for their catalog, it's awesome!), I drink Earl :drinker: Grey or Irish Breakfast in the AM and then lots of herbal teas, cold and hot rest of the day. Tazo's Wild Sweet Orange is especially good, very flavorful. There has a lot written about the antioxidant effect of black and green teas, and, if you're drinking more fluids it's only good! :drinker:

    I love tea in the afternoon , I usually have coffee in the morning then switch to tea either black tea or green , sometimes mint tea. No sugar or milk just plain tea . Not sure if it helps with weight loss I just enjoy it .

    I'm a tea drinker as well, usually just in the mornings. Tetley (orange pekoe), Twinings Jasmine Green and Twinings Earl Grey are my favorites. I don't add anything to them. Sometimes to change it up I'll have some fun flavours from David's Tea. (Check them out, they have so many diferent kinds! www.davidstea.com )

    I like the Irish Breakfast from Adagio. The Gunpowder is also good if you like a smokey green tea.

    Adagio is a great place for tea. I also occasionally get Numi's Chocolate Pu-erh tea when I want something sweet. I do use TJ's liquid stevia because I have an unnatural sweet tooth. Green tea is pretty good, I like Stash when I have nothing else. Mint green tea is my favorite a long with Darjeeling.

    I'm a huge tea drinker! I usually drink 2-4 cups a day of all sorts of tea (mainly green and black). It helps me feel satisfied after meals and helps me stop eating. I just can't drink it on an empty stomach or I get slightly nauseous.

    At the moment, I'm drinking Traditional Medicinals Echinacea Plus (I have a bit of a head cold; found at Wholefoods). It's an herbal tea. Normally, I will drink Bigelow's Chinese Oolong tea (black tea).

    I also like Throat Coat (not sure of the brand, but found at Wholefoods), it's also good for when you are sick.

    Tazo also has pretty good tea. I'm about to try their Green Ginger for the first time. It's steeping as I type this, and it smells really good. I can definitely smell the ginger in it. It's a green tea, so it has some caffeine. Generally, I'm not a huge fan of green tea, but ginger is good for colds, so I'm hopeful it will be good.

    Teavana has really great tea. Expensive, but good!

    I throw a packet of Splenda in the cup and call it a day. I'm not that inventive with tea, lol.

    Green tea is meant to assist, although the amoint you have to drink is likely to assist losing weight by the times you have to go to the loo. I did have a penchant for Earl Grey as well as Rooibos/ Red Bush and Vanilla.
  • i love tea!! i started drinking it a lot at night to help lessen any cravings for dessert. I used to use artificial sweetener but have been trying to get away from that. now i drink it without any sweetener and it still calms my cravings! :)

    In the evening, I switch from coffee to various decaf tea. For me, the tea is a satisfier and keeps me away from bad choices in the evening. On the plus side - I enjoy tea.

    I started drinking unsweetened tea in place of diet coke about a year ago. I don't think it's helped with weight loss at all, but I think it's a lot healthier for me to have iced tea in place of all the diet coke I used to drink. I'm drinking a big Jersey Mike's iced tea right now. :)
