how do you make a homemade skinny vanilla latte?
green tea frap?
also, i want to try a tazo tea, which one do you think is the best?
You can buy the sugar-free vanilla syrup, and a syrup pump from starbucks. Then if you have a espresso machine with a frother, you steam some non-fat milk to 160 degrees. If your cup is 12oz put 1 shot of espresso and 3 pumps of SFV, 16oz (4 pumps SFV) and 20oz get 2 shots 5 pumps SFV).
The green tea frapps would be harder to duplicate at home. I'm not even sure how to explain that one to you… sorry.
And finally, my favorite tazo tea is the earl gray. However. We've just started tazo tea lattes, and my favorite one of those is the vanilla rooibos. You should definately give that one a try.

I want to lose 35 lbs. by November- Can someone tell me if this is a balanced diet/ excersize plan?
16.January, 2009
I am 25 yrs old, 175 lbs., 5'7.
Breakfast: omelet w/ham, onion, mozz. cheese
sometimes on a whole wheat muffin or bagel
sometimes a bowl of yogurt Cheerios instead
Lunch: turkey sandwich, or a salad w/chicken, lowfat dressing
Dinner: grilled chicken breast, steamed broccoli, sometimes a lean pocket if I am in a hurry
In between I snack on watermelon, pineapple, celery, and cucumbers, but I do have a weakness for low-fat pretzel rods…
I also walk two miles every morning and do Tae-Bo 4-5 times a week not to mention chasing after 3 small kids. On the weekends, I don't excersize because I work.
I do not drink soda EVER, water and Crystal Light, once in awhile a diet snapple.
Oh yeah, I also take the "green tea pills" but this is more for energy than dieting, I have been taking them for almost five years.
All this and I have only lost like 2 lbs. in a month! I am very faithful and hardly cheat. What am I doing wrong?
Your plan sounds good to me. Are you gaining muscle? Pineapple and Watermelon taste yummy (my favorites, too), but I wouldn't snack on them all the time (as listed above?). Along with bananas, they are the highest sugar fruits. Maybe try carrots with hummus or grapes. Walking is good (any movement is good), but it isn't my first choice for losing weight. I think sometimes our bodies get used to a particular exercise - maybe switch it up a bit? The only reason I personally am not crazy about walking is that unless you are doing power walking w/weights, does your heart rate come up enough to be considered cardio and to lose weight? One of my friends had really good look on www.ediets.com. They personalize a menu plan for you, have nutritionists on staff for questions, conduct online meetings on different topics, have weight ins, etc. All in a really positive and pro-active approach. You can choose from 11 or so different eating plans. She really liked the accountability and convenience. And as far as the Green Tea pills go, maybe try getting energy from your food. More protein such as chicken, fish, and even red meat (once in awhile)? Best of luck!

what does thr mega -T green tea water weight loss pill side effects?
16.January, 2009
ok i just want to know what all is the pill about before i take it or what is the best diet pill to take that will show results fast any advise
I have been through it all and know what's it about. The main thing is to stick in there. You can't be an addict to food and never exercise if you want to live a healthy life and keep the weight off. I've worked out, done every diet, and all types of classes.
Nothing works, besides dedication and intelligence towards the subject of losing weight.
First, depending on how much weight you need to lose, your diet is the first concern. You can't eat 10,000 calories a day and expect the weight to come off, even if you are exercising a lot. Which brings us to the next thing. Duh, Exercising…
This is a must especially if you need to a lot of weight. Get at least 30 mins of some good hardcore exercising. Do some cardio, in the long run, it's good for the heart.
However, I find the most hardest part of losing weight/keeping it off, in my diet. It's so hard to keep your fingers out of the cookie jar or those chocolate goodies. I've found a great addition to help any one out, it's a natural weight loss supplement called Proactol. Now don't get all crazy on me and say diet pills don't work. That is true, but not in this case. This one isn't meant to burn pounds while you sit on the couch. It's an appetite suppressant, along with being a fat binder. I saved money on the pills at theweightlossplace.com along with getting some good info. It basically makes those fingers not go towards the cookie jar. For me it's the best pill I've tried and I've tried cupboards full. Now this doesn't mean you have to follow my foot steps but I've successfully lost roughly 70 pounds and keeping it off til this day.
Well good luck and remember what I said, Dedicate.

Add 1 teaspoon of Matcha to 6 ounces of hot or cold milk

This is a recipe called Matcha Latte

Does drinking Green tea helps you lose weight?
16.January, 2009
If i drink only green tea and water every day and eat very little food like only fruits and veggies, and a little rice and not exercise at all can i lose 25 pounds fast?? In like 3 months?
Definitely. Tea won't make much of a difference, but if you exercise a lot, and eat little, then you can healthily lose 2 lbs a week.

Have you ever done the green tea diet?
16.January, 2009
If you have tell me everything you know about it, and if it worked, because i was thinking of trying it, but if it doesn't work then i'll try something else, and if you have any other weight loss strategies then that would be cool to hear about it.
Thanx!
I dunno, but my mum always say green tea/ chinese tea is good for you. It helps you clean your digestive system and therefore it should be able to keep you nice and healthy and possibly even help you loose weight. I reckon you should try it, there's no harm done and like people say it's always good to try new things!

egcg in gt's kombucha tea?
14.January, 2009
gt's kombucha tea is made with black tea, so how can they claim there are 100 mg of egcg per bottle?
i thought only green tea had egcg
Black Tea has bad chemicals in it like coffee. I guess I cant give you answer but I would have to say that it doesnt make sence.

Does decaf green tea have the same beneficial properties as regular green tea, and…?
14.January, 2009
… is it true that using boiling water on green tea destroys the good properties (I heard you should use hot water but never boiling from the kettle)
Same properties and no, boiling water doesn't destroy the good stuff.
You might want to try red bush tea - naturally caffeine free and very very good for you.
