I'm not sure about before workouts but I have found that drinking green tea certainly helps lower my hunger cravings. Many studies have also shown that green tea is packed full of antioxidants including EGCG which is linked to a boost in metabolism, fat burning and therefore an increase in weightloss.

I just smile, say thanks and get back to it. They're going to continue watching or offering "advise" regardless. It's when I get comments like "You shouldn't be lifting that heavy" that I get pissed off.

Love this post, I've been thinking about it as I've been reading all these other amazing "small victories" and I realize that I actually have quite a few of my own recent ones. I've lost 1kg in the past week after not losing any for ages. I have been able to start weight training for the first time since March when I did a…
