Tea and Fitness
I must warn you that this is a long post!
When I started my “fitness venture”, as I like to call it, I looked into all the possibilities on how to get healthy, fit and loose the excess weight. After a lot of investigating I finally found something that works for me so, I now want to give my completely-biased-not-based-on-scientific-fact-or-studies-but-on-personal-experience account of my relationship with tea and how it helped me lose weight and get healthy. Before I go on I want to let you all know, in case you didn’t already, that I am not a healthcare professional, physician nor dietician, this is just me wanting to share my experience with the world and maybe helping someone else discover tea and help give them a boost to a healthy lifestyle. Ok? Ok!

Tea and more tea!
Having a love of tea makes it difficult for me to control myself arond anything tea related. I guess it’s not a bad addiction to have, tea is, after all, very healthy! And it’s the best thing to have around when company shows up. Like the great quote from Gladstone goes: ”If you are cold, tea will warm you. If you are too heated, it will cool you. If you are depressed, it will cheer you. If you are excited, it will calm you.” So, when I came across the tea review blog’s tea swap (http://www.teareviewblog.com/?page_id=1706) I jumped at the chance to share my tea love with others around the world. This was a great idea! Read more
