I stopped drinking pop and started drinking green tea

I got out of the hospital weighting amost four hundred pounds. I could not walk more than five feet and had to have oxygen on at all times. My life was ending fast in front of me. The Day I got out of the Hospital my son inlaw called to tell me that my daughter was in labor and I was going to be a grandma.

I was so proud and wanted to enjoy life with my new grandson but the doctor just did not listen to me when I said I did not eat much food. That was the honest truth. However, I drank a twenty four pack of pepsi per day.

Than my husband forgot to pick up pepsi and a snow storm hit. The only thing to drink we green tea. It tasted so good. I loved every bit of it. It made me feel the thirst was finally gone. So I drank it, and I drank it day after day. Than finally I started to feel hungry. I started to eat meals.

Soon my wieght was falling off of me. I was finally enjoying food and drinking green tea was a part of my life. Within the first year I dropped to my goal wieght of 128 and I go up five pound and sometimes drop five, but most always my weight is 128. I can walk, I can breathe and I am alive to enjoy all twenty four grandchildren.
