    Just no. It's a laxative. If you wouldn't go to the pharmacy and buy some ex-lax to abuse for weight loss, don't buy "skinny" tea.

    I don't think many people would recommend something like this

    Thanks for your input , I figured I would ask in here because every where online was positive, I knew there was some negative behind it. I'm still new to this so any advice is great.

    I have a version of this I got from Amazon. I have IBS, so I use to get things *moving* when I have a flare up. I only drink it 3-5x per month when i am having tummy troubles.

    Good rule of thumb - if it promises you weight loss above and beyond what you would get from eating less calories than you burn in a day, don't bother. There are no magic pills, teas, cleanses, detoxes or anything else which will do anything but lighten your wallet.

    or if it has the word "skinny" in it just avoid it….

    Reads reviews online and doesn't trust them. Goes online to MFP to ask internet strangers what they think.

    Huh.

    Popcorn is rotund. I've never seen skinny popcorn unless my kids spilled a drink on it, in which case it was pretty nasty.

    This is another tea just like fitlicious tea, tiny tea, her tea, bootea, etc.

    All a waste of money and time. It's laxatives with a high amount of caffeine. NOT something I'd be consuming.

    Matter of fact, in Australia these diet teas were just rated in the top three WORST fad diets of 2014.

    Word of advice, if a company is paying for shout outs on Instagram from fitness pages and has an unprofessional website, it's probably a scam. If it's something other than diet and exercise saying it causes weight loss, it's probably a scam.

    Good luck on your goals op! :)

    I bet that is not a sentence you ever thought would have a context.

    The words say skinny, but the photo tells a different tale.

    STOP BODY SHAMING THE POPCORN. IT IS MEANT TO BE ROUND AND LUMPY.

    Try drink dandelion root tea. It's can help clean your body out the same way. However after a day I recommend stopping and only using when you need it. Those teas promote weight loss but really just force crap out of your body instead of actual fat. Save your money for healthy food instead.
