Instead of eating a bowl of my kids cereal, I ate low fat skim mozzarella and then went to bed.

I made a peanut butter and Strawberry jam sandwich and instead of using two peices of bread I used one and put twice as much peanut butter and jam to make up for it

Hi Everyone
Has anyone heard of The Book The Perricone Promise watched it on Oprah sounded like he had some really valid points, one thing he said , change your coffeefor green tea and I think he said ,you would lose 10 pounds in six weeks just by changing that one thing .I Love my coffee but its worth a try .

Recent research shows that tea's combination of natural caffine and phytochemical antioxidents called catechins which is incredibly effective at promoting fat loss by elevating thermogenesis.tea also protects lean muscle mass and stabilizes blood sugar levels no whipped cream involved

Like I said...I drink green tea a few times a week-but I have noticed no effect/any difference in the speed of my weight loss when I do or when I don't. There are lots of things that natually cause slight thermogenesis-like moderate amounts of peppers/hot sauce...but I have never heard of it causing a 10 pound drop in 6 weeks-by that change alone.
Green tea has a lot going for it-a very healthy drink-but I wouldn't rely on that switch alone for weight loss. JMHO.

I also think it's because Green Tea is a diuretic. And the caffiene in the coffee is an appetite stimulant, and as someone already pointed out the green tea is naturally caffienated. The tea will help you through if you're doing a low carb diet too (you know what I mean if you're on one *LOL*) which is another added benifit. I can see where it could help, plus all the antioxidants, etc
