detox tea.

jillian michaels is claiming that you can lose excess water weight with this drink. and anything that jillian michaels says regarding health & fitness, i'll believe. except those dumb weight loss pills.  jillian, that's stupid - no pill can make you lose weight. a drink can't either, so why am i trying it? i'm on a pinterest kick, and i'm a sucker.    

the source from pinterest. 

you need:

60 oz water

juice from half of a lemon

2 tbsp cranberry juice (NO sugar added)

1 dandelion root tea bag.

    first, boil some water and put it in your pitcher with the tea bag.  let that steep for a few minutes.  then add in the cranberry & lemon.  voila!   basically you drink this throughout your day.  you can still have your coffee too, score.  but after that try to just drink water or at least don't drink anything with artificial sweeteners.  do it for 7 days.     the verdict as of day 4:   it tastes good!  kind of just tastes like lemon water.  i can't really taste the dandelion root, maybe just a hint (just tastes a little earthy).  i can't taste any cranberry though.  i find it pretty pleasant and not at all hard to drink.  i'm actually starting to really like it, it's a nice switch up from my normal water.  i haven't weighed myself, so whether or not i've actually lost any water weight is TBD!
