My experience while doing a TEATOX, the good, the bad and the ugly.
11:00 AM
I'm the last person who follows my own advices. I know I've written once that doing a detox diet is not good for your health and then I'm here about to write about my experience doing the skinny teatox for the last 14 days. In my defense this wasn't a diet, and lately I've been reading a lot about this stuff, since I've never did a teatox before I was really curious and I can't let pass the chance to try it myself.

Ya se que yo les dije que no era buena idea hacer dietas detox, pero yo soy la última en seguir mis propios consejos y en mi defensa skinny TEATOX no es una dieta, ademas me daba muchisima curiosidad porque habia leído mucho sobre él en otros blogs y cuando tuve la oportunidad de probarlo me apunte rapidisimo, asi que ahora les voy a contar mi experiencia...
I received the 14 days skinny teatox kit which basically consist in one bag of loose tea leaf to drink once every morning using the cute strawberry infuser, 7 bags of evening tea to drink every other night before go to sleep and a little instructions guide that explain carefully how to use it and some of the side effects of using it, cautions and recommendations when using it and who should and shouldn't use it. Even though the tea is completely natural, free of conservatives or supplements, the manufacturer is very clear about what it does contain (in case anyone is allergic to any of those ingredients). They also include a list of what type of food you should eat and avoid or eat less and they recommend to do exercise all along the way.

Yo recibí el paquete para 14 días que contiene una bolsa de hojas de te para tomar en la mañana utilizando el infusor en forma de fresa que también es parte del kit,7 bolsitas de te para la noche y un instructivo que explica cómo tomarlos y algunas recomendaciones como por ejemplo el tipo de comida que se debe evitar o comer menos durante el tiempo que se haga el "teatox" . Aunque los dos tes son completamente naturales, libres de conservadores o suplementos, la fábrica es muy honesta y aclara cuales son los ingredientes del te y sus efectos secundarios, ademas de no recomendar su uso a cierto tipo de personas.
The morning tea tastes like regular green tea and it's meant to reduce hunger and give you energy, and it definitely does its job, after I drink it I don't feel as hungry as I use to the problem is that I love food so much that I don't need to be hungry to eat. And the night tea is kind of a colon cleanse and I've read on other blogs and the instructions guide itself that it can make it go to the bathroom a lot! (if you know what I mean) Luckily for me that didn't happen!
One thing that did happen during the second week and I didn't like is that it made me feel very thirsty, I had to drink LOTS of water or sometimes other type of drinks like coconut water to control it, also my skin started to felt and look very dry and my lips cracked more than usual. This definitely makes you stop retaining liquids until the point to make you dehydrated. Not good at all!
Lo que si me paso durante la segunda semana, es que estuve muy sedienta, horriblemente y tenía que tomar bebidas con electrolitos, agua de coco o muchas frutas para poder calmarla, yo creo que en combinación los dos tes deben hacer que elimines liquidos, pero en mi opinion de manera exagerada, hasta tenía los labios y la piel mas secos de lo normal. Cosa que no me gusto para nada!

En mi opinión el te de la ma;ana es como te verde normal, de hecho sabe a lo mismo, pero se supone que es para reducir el apetito y dar energía, tengo que admitir que si funciona el problema es que a mi me encanta la comida y no tener hambre no me impide dejar de comer. Y el te de la noche debe actuar como una "limpieza de colon", incluso en el instructivo dice que uno de sus efectos puede ser hacerte ir al bano mucho (ya saben a que me refiero) afortunadamente eso no me sucedio!Lo que si me paso durante la segunda semana, es que estuve muy sedienta, horriblemente y tenía que tomar bebidas con electrolitos, agua de coco o muchas frutas para poder calmarla, yo creo que en combinación los dos tes deben hacer que elimines liquidos, pero en mi opinion de manera exagerada, hasta tenía los labios y la piel mas secos de lo normal.

I didn't noticed a significative weight losing while doing the teaxot, I'm 5'2" (159cm) and when I started the teatox I was 127.2(58kg) lbs today after 14 days I'm 124.2 lbs (56.3 kg), please notice that during the whole process I was doing exercise 4 to 5 days a week, running every other day plus weight lifting or pilates (my regular exercise routine) and eating like I normally do, "healthy" most of the time, I mean I always eat fruit and vegetables and I also drink lots of water but sometimes if a piece of yummy sweet bread is in front of me I can't say no, also during weekends I just forget about all rules and I just eat my heart's content. However the teatox did helped me to stay focused and motivated because I tried to eat better than usual,reducing the amount of junk food and I also avoid skipping exercise days.What really impressed me is that it reduced my stomach bloating so my belly looks more flat now.

En mi experiencia no logre una gran pérdida de peso. Yo mido 5'2 (159 cm) y comencé pesando 127.2 lb (58kg) y después de los 14 días peso 124.2lbs (56.3), durante todo el tiempo estuve haciendo ejercicio, pesas o pilates diario y corriendo de vez en cuando, y tambien comiendo como siempre lo hago, en general me alimento bien, como frutas verduras y todo eso pero cuando se me antoja algo nada me detiene, ademas los fines de semana se me olvida lo que es comer bien. Lo que sí es cierto es que el saber que estaba haciendo un teatox me ayudo a mantenerme motivada o enfocada en mi meta, porque si reduje la cantidad de comida chatarra y no me salte dias de ejercicio como otras veces.
Would I say this skinny teatox work? I do! Since I didn't change that much my exercise routine and most important, eating habits (I ate cheese every day and junk food every weekend...ok maybe once a week too) but I still lose weight I have to admit this should have helped me at least a little. So I'm thinking in doing the teatox again but with a more strict exercise and eating regimen.
Remember that to lose weight you should eat healthy and do exercise there is nothing like a magic potion for that and definitely drinking tea twice a day during 14 days is not going to make you skinny overnight. So this is definitely something we have to keep in mind when doing the teatox.

Have you done a teatox before?

Considerando que no cambie mucho mis hábitos alimenticios o mi estilo de vida pero aun así rebaje un kilito (casi dos) pues tengo que admitir que hacer el teatox me ayudo un poquito porque como les dije me mantiene motivada, así que si un dia quiero ponerme estricta y necesito una ayudita extra pues consideraría volver a hacerlo.
Sin embargo,como yo siempre les digo la clave para perder peso y sobre todo estar saludable es comer bien y hacer ejercicio, no hay ningún tipo de poción mágica para lograrlo y definitivamente tomar te por 14 días no te hará delgada de la noche a la mañana.
