Emily...adding sugar is just reversing what your trying to do. PLug your nose and get it down, it will be a good test of your will power. I've been where your at and I know how hard it is to loose the weight but I can tell you from experience that your biggest enemy is yourself. Eat your meal before your hungry so you won't over do it. Don't eat food because it taste good or as a social thing, eat for the nutritional benefit. You need to find new hobbies and make sure that you are surrounding yourself with supportive people and not hanging out with friends who enjoy to eat for fun, I know it seems cold hearted but they will only take you down with them. Loosing weight is a life change not a diet. Good luck sweetie...I'm rooting for you!

green tea helps detox your body, and speeds up your metabolism (therefore helping weight loss) and it is good for you, a lot better then diet pop. you could try adding honey to make it taste better.

Somewhere I read said that there is no majic food to weight loss, so just drink water or diet pepsi w/ lemon.

i love green tea!! it's a great way to improve your health, but i like it really strong with nothing in it. i guess i'm just weird like that.

Try "Bigelow Green Tea W/ lemon" and add a packet of splenda, I love it!
