Can You Really Lose Weight with Wu Yi Tea?
Seems too easy, right? Drink a few mugs of wu yi tea and lose weight without effort? I did not believe it either and then something peculiar happened over the holiday season.
You should understand that I am in fairly decent shape and if I gain a little weight, it hits my stomach first. Nobody likes the extra roll(s) of fat on their abs, but it happens. I try to watch what I eat, though I am quite fond of an occasional cheeseburger (okay, and wine, chocolate etc.). I enjoy working out, but I do lapse out of my routine when things get hectic like say, Christmas?
So, the lack of working out coupled with tons of food over the holiday season leaves me with a bit of a gut by mid-January. I trade in my skinny jeans (no longer able to be buttoned) for my jogging pants and burn the excess pounds. But guess what happened this holiday season?
A friend of mine had given me a box of wu yi tea to try. I love tea and drink it iced all day long. So, I just threw a handful of these bags in my pitcher of iced tea, brewed it along with the black tea and it was pretty tasty. I know it is supposed to be for weight loss, but I did not really think it would work.
For now, I had shopping to tend to and gifts to wrap. And of course, all the holiday parties with eggnog martinis, canopies, lobster tails dripping with butter, prime rib and all the yummy holiday desserts. I had no time to workout with such a crazy schedule.
After the craziness of the season was over, I reluctantly went to the scale. I had not noticed my jeans getting tighter, but I hoped my ab exercises in October and November had maybe helped me sort of hold in the fat. Not that it would not be there. Do you have any idea how many calories are in cheesecake? (Oh, and the pecan pie? And the brownies?)
Wrong! I lost weight three pounds! I still did not believe it could be the wu yi tea. I knew it was loaded with anti-oxidants and when I reread the label, I figured out it also had wu yi tea extract. This sort of boosted its abilities to increase fat-burning.
However, I decided to test the theory further. I quit drinking the wu yi tea (though I missed its lovely flavor) and went about eating and not working out. I did not pig out, per say, but I ate enough to just maintain my current weight (I had just lost three pound, you know).
Sure enough, in a month, I had gained back the three pounds. I can only assume it was the wu yi tea that helped me lose weight. Imagine what it would do if you were eating correctly and working out? This will be the next thing I test. I have started drinking the wu yi tea with wu yi tea extract again. I am eating a healthy diet and back to running on my treadmill. We will see what happens!
