    Every time I have a McChicken after I've been to the gym after midnight, I'm 1lb+ lighter when I wake up. I'm gonna be the Jared of McChickens!

    McChickens + green tea = mega weight loss

    Great Post! Totally drew me in! Green tea does help your metabolism but its not a cure all. I enjoy green tea but the only reason it has helped me is because I cut out coffee wit sugar and creamer and just drink plain green tea instead. Gives me a bit of energy along with a nice hot drink and no sugar/calories/ or fat.

    I hope it doesn't turn catastrophic, though.

    The only reason why you could possibly lose weight ''because'''''' of tea is because you drink it instead of let's say, snacking on crackers. The body sometimes mistake thirst with hunger and sends you the same signals for both. So you feel satiated for longer by drinking enough water. That's it.
    I love tea, especially green tea. I can drink up to 3 cups everyday when it's chilly out, even though now that summertime came around i don't drink much anymore, except maybe homemade iced tea (when i have the patience haha) and matcha. God, i love matcha. It might be warm but i only make cute little cups of it instead of huge mugs so it's a perfect replacement to coffee...which, when i used to drink a lot of it every morning, would give me terrible tummy aches. I have a super sensitive digestion.
    So yup. Drink tea because you like it, not to lose weight. Actually, you should do everything you do because you enjoy it, if it has benefits for your weight loss and health then it's amazng! That's how you obtain a working, long term routine, because you do it naturally since it doesn't feel like a chore.

    You two need stop all this tomfoolery. We were but a whisker away from figuring out the magical combination of green tea cookies and McChickens that will lead to maximum weight loss. Let's try to shed more light on the subject, shall we?

    Meow meow, no need to make it purrsonal. Cat puns can get a bit prepawsterous though.

    I'm pretty sure that a green tea flavoured cookie pizza in a hamburger bun is the perfect thing to drink in the morning for the most efficient weight loss.

    Well, as @Alatariel75 is the originator of this awesome miracle, I left the peeps out, since you can't get them (from what I've seen at least) in Australia. Maybe one microwaved to explosion on the top? Or should it be used as a chaser for days where you need that extra fat blasted?

    I should probably go to bed.

    I really just snorted laughing, picturing someone slaving for hours concocting a magical green tea/cookie/pizza/burger thing, and then gingerly placing a burnt, bulbous Peep on top. "Aaaaaand now! It's perfect!"

    I'm pretty sure that's all my diary would consist of if they did. I have a bad enough time with the selection of green tea cookies available here as it is. Not to mention matcha macarons.

    This raises another point - what type of green tea? Plain green tea? Sencha? Matcha? Houjicha? Will any of them work, or do you need some of each just to be safe?

    I'm willing to set up an exchange - there are currently new TimTam flavours - including Salted caramel, Red Velvet, Dark choc raspberry and three bean (vanilla, coffee cocoa). They did have dark choc orange but they were limited addition... I may or may not have a stockpile however...
