This is the diet that has worked best for me. Basically, I drink green tea twice a day. Once in the morning, and a second time at night during dinner. I feel that green tea helps to suppress my appetite and make me feel full.

Plus, green tea has many health benefits, including a good amount of antioxidants, and it flushes toxins out of your body. It also has just enough caffeine to help me feel awake in the morning without making me feel jittery and overly-caffeinated.

I do at least 30 minutes of yoga every day. Yoga helps me feel fit and balanced. Whenever I finish a session of yoga, I feel less hungry than I was before. In general, after any type of exercise, I don’t feel like eating.

Yoga, in particular, makes me feel relaxed and peaceful, so I am less likely to eat because I am sad, anxious or upset. Sometimes, when I’m upset, I reach for food and end up over-eating, but yoga puts me at ease. Maybe people don’t realize this, but yoga is an excellent form of exercise and can help you burn a lot of calories.

I have been on this for a few weeks now and can definitely feel and see the difference. I still eat my normal healthy meals and try to avoid fast and junk foods, but I incorporate green tea and yoga into my schedule every day.

I lost five pounds during the first couple of weeks and I am continuing to grow leaner and fitter..
