The Frosted Flakes had 12g sugar and 0mg Cholesterol and Total Fat 0.1g

The Ice Cream had 14.7g sugar and 20mg Cholesterol and Total Fat 6.4g ... 3.9g of that fat being Saturated Fat.

Are you guys blind or what?? You just love ice cream, that's all!! lol

Yeah, that's all the stuff they're supposed to burn off running around, which that little bit of extra sugar will get them doing sooner than later.

My 9th grade math teacher, Mr. Weil, once told us that ice cream had more vitamins and minerals than breakfast cereal .......

Yeah, cereal makers are really bad... the ones that make all those cereals that attract kids (and us adults too). They take pure junk food, add vitamins and minerals to it, and then advertise that it's good for kids. At least ice cream has calcium in it. The frosted flakes had no calcium, from what I saw.

I was reading in the readers digest that...

Green tea contains catechins, thought to inhibit the breakdown of fats as well as the production of an inflammatory substance that can trigger hunger.

One study showed that drinking 3 glasses of green tea a day can help you reduce body weight and waist circumference by almost 5 percent in 3 months.

I've also read that... I've read that it boosts our metabolism.

I've heard of green tea flavored ice cream, but I have not tried it yet. Green tea ice cream may be better for you than other ice creams, but I can't imagine being as good for you as drinking green tea is.

I think if you've never tried it, don't!! Just another bad habit to deal with if you find you love the stuff!!

Here is a photo of some green tea ice cream if you are interested. Not sure if it tastes any good though.

I'm a tea addict. I could never get through an entire day without a cup of freshly-brewed loose green tea. The smell alone is enough to make my mouth water and the delicious sensation of fresh hot tea sliding down my throat is something that I always take time to relish during my tea break. Green tea has tons of health benefits and is a great source of antioxidants. The ever increasing sale of green tea actually, is due to its ability to produce fat oxidation. This simply means that drinking green tea will act directly on your body to lessen your fats because of its natural oxidizing property. Some of the best green tea can be found at trentonteas.com. Cheers!

I am a beginner in taking green tea but after usage for about one week I feel no change in my belly fat. In what quantity it should be taken daily and how many times. Please tell me about its usage.
