I’m on the Atkins diet. One of the requirements is to drink 64 ounces of water each day.

Decaffeinated tea is allowed on the diet, but there is a message saying that any tea you drink should not count toward the 64 ounces.

I drink decaf green tea and was wondering why I can’t count that towards the total amount of water that is required?

I have tried diet and exercise and even cut out soda for 5 months almost completely and drank water and green tea…I’ve still only lost about 20 lbs ( used to be 210). I want to be 160 or lower before summertime, and this is the only way I could do it. Which weight loss pill system would you recommendd, and how many pounds did you lose in a 3 month period?

Green Tea Weight Loss

Quite a few people are now turning to less expensive and natural green tea weight loss plans to aid them in their efforts for weight loss. This is a very simple solution too. Like any other tea,Green tea can be drunk usuallly without the need for milk or sweeteners, or if you do not like the taste you can purchase green tea extract.

Recent studies have shown that Green tea will aid in the reduction of weight by stimulating the body’s thermogenesis process, which increases the expenditure of energy and the oxidization of fat in the body. Many compounds discovered in plants have this effect. The difference in green tea is that it does not speed up the heart rate, and is therefore believed to be safer than diet pills such as ephidrine that also work by stimulating thermogenesis.

A lot of people who are overweight have or are at run the risk of a development of hypertension and other possible cardiovascular problems, so the fact that green tea does not put pressure on the heart makes it a good choice. Ephidrine is not usually recommended if you are in this group but green tea is considered a safe option. Because the fact that green tea reduces your risk of heart problems, you can gradually increase your exercise levels to a safe level.

There are only two ways to lose weight: one way is by eating less (consuming fewer calories) and the other is by increasing expenditure of energy (using up more calories). Green tea works by increasing output and this can be as much as 4%. Most scientists believe that this is caused by the high quantity of catechin that is found in the tea and its extract.

Green tea has the added benefit of containing powerful antioxidants that could be beneficial to your health in many ways, protecting against disease and strengthening the immune system.

Keep in mind that green tea does contain caffeine so you should cut out coffee and other forms of tea while you are taking it. Decaffeinated Green tea is not recommended because removing the caffeine with certain chemical processes may destroy the beneficial properties of the plant.

At the same time you will need to exercise control in what you eat. You will not lose any weight, If you consume more to compensate for the calories that are burnt by the tea. Keeping to the same calorific intake that you have now and taking Green tea should result in gradual weight loss and better energy levels over a few weeks. Of course you can increase the speed of this by reducing calorie consumption and/or increasing exercise.

Being an inexpensive weight control, yet simple and easy makes Green Tea easily be incorporated into any weight loss program. The decision between the tea or extract offers something for anyone. Safe and natural, green tea weight loss should be a feature in your weight lossprogram if you want to keep the weight off permanently.
