    Tip 1 - Ditch the shakes and eat real food.
    Tip 2 - All tea is healthy. There are no magical properties about any tea.
    Tip 3 - consume less calories than you burn and you will lose weight. No need to go to extremes (shakes and teas) to get there.

    I looked at your profile pic and based on the topic I was so confused because I was like, "this girl doesn't need to lose 341 lbs!"

    Same here!

    On my old typewriter, there was no numeral 1 ; I learned to use the letter "L" -- lower case, of course. :smile:

    Hala Halima!

    My tip is to eat real food, including lots of vegetables! Moving every day will also help you to feel good and to lose weight.
  • Thank you :)
  • In the UK we sometimes say 'tea' to mean our evening meal. It's from when we had afternoon tea and then supper.

    Yep I always call my evening meal my tea. I have to remind myself to refer to it as dinner on these boards!

    It's more of a northern uk thing than a general one. Caused a small issue when a southerner friend of mine invited a northerner around for tea (cup thereof) and the northerner was expecting food!

    Is it? I grew up in Surrey and use 'tea' to mean dinner!

    Same here in Australia. I only use the word dinner on American boards.
