5 Best Teas for Losing Weight

Hello Everybody,

Being a southern girl, I'm no stranger to tea.....The REAL SWEET kind, but we all know where that sugary sweet goodness goes after being consumed....Right to the hips, thighs, belly and butt!!!!! 

I just recently had a baby, so I'm still in the stages of losing "baby weight" as I like to call it, and trust me when I say that I have done my fair share of research on ways to lose the weight.  Obviously, I know diet and exercise are truly the only legit way to actually lose the weight and stay healthy while doing so, but I figure a few lifestyle changes along the way couldn't hurt...Right?

I mostly like to drink my tea sweet and southern (of course) but knowing how unhealthy it really is, I have been drinking hot teas and to be honest, they're not so bad...especially if you have a sore throat or are feeling a bit under the weather. 

Tea is a great way to get antioxidants and is pretty good for you in general.  Tea has a lot of benefits for your body and health and yes....even weight loss.  I have researched and found five teas that are great for losing weight and they are super tasty too.

1.  Rooibos Tea- This tea regulates fat-storage hormones and has Aspalathin in it, which reduces stress hormones that cause hunger.  Basically you can control your hunger with this tea.



2.  White Tea-  This tea prevents fat cells from forming.  It is rich in antioxidants and boosts lipolysis and blocks adipogenesis which forms fat cells.



3.  Mint Tea-  This tea strikes hunger as well.  It suppresses your appetite and helps you control your hunger.  It is really good to have before bed.



4.  Oolong Tea-  This tea boosts your metabolism.  It is packed with catechins which boost your bodys ability to metabolize fat.



5.  Green Tea-  This tea also boosts your metabolism and unlocks fat cells.  It too has catechins to help metabolize lipids.  It is great to have before a workout as it boosts energy levels and burns fat super fast.

Photo of myself (30 day challenge)

Hello Everybody,

 

As part of the 30 day blogging challenge, I wanted to post a photo of myself that I love.  Not to sound conceited or anything, but I really love this picture of me.  I am not dressed up and have on minimal make-up and for some reason, I feel really confident.  I love that I can feel this way about a photograph of myself because I am always criticizing myself whether it be in photos, or in real life.  I am my worst critic and I know that's not always a good thing to be so hard on yourself, but it's just something I have always done. 

 

In this picture, I feel beautiful without even trying.  I think it's important to be able to feel that way about yourself at some point in your life, even if it's not on an everyday basis.  Having self confidence is important and it feels really good when you don't always beat yourself up about everything. 

 

Anyways, I hope you all enjoyed this post and please follow me on bloglovin.  All you have to do is click the box and follow me and i'll follow you back.

Favorite Quotes

 

Hello Everybody,

I wanted to blog about something a little different today.  I found this 30 day challenge for blogging and I thought it was a pretty cool idea to try.  I'm not going to do it in the order listed, but I am going to do the ones I like most first and then the others will sort of just fall into place. 


Favorite Quotes:

• We were born to be real, not perfect.
• Remember, it's just a bad day, not a bad life.
• Life is a story;  Make yours a best seller.
• Enjoy your OWN life WITHOUT comparing it to another.
• Life is better when you're laughing
• The things I treasure most in life, cannot be taken away
• Sometimes we just have to let things go.
• If you correct your mind, the rest of your life will fall into place.

These are a few of the things I try to remember so that I can always try to remain positive.  Being positive is sort of a struggle for me, but it is something I will continue to work on everyday for the rest of my life.  I have learned that being negative and being around people who are constantly negative, will cause you to be that same way, and it is toxic.  I try my hardest to find something positive in every situation I am faced with;  I know that there are days where I will just feel blah and not be able to do anything about it...I mean c'mon, I'm not perfect, but trying to stay positive is something I am working really hard at and will continue to do so no matter what challenges I am faced with. 

Anyways,  I hope you all enjoyed this blog and please feel free to leave feedback in the comments about ways you stay positive, or your favorite quotes.  I look forward to reading them.
