A few months ago, I weighed 238 pounds.

The old me

But yesterday, when I went in to see my doctor for a followup visit, the nurse took my weight and the scale showed 167.

My doctor was so proud of me. I began to weep.

It made me think about my journey... all the ups & downs.

First, I thought I had to exercise to lose weight.

Then, I thought it was my diet.

So I tried all kinds of diets. 

I had some wins along the way, but I couldn't keep it off.

To be honest, I started to lose hope.

Until...

My doctor told me about a little tweak I could do to my morning tea to turn my metabolism switch on... so that it burns more calories whether I am awake or asleep.

The new me

I didn't actually believe it would work... how could this one tweak to my tea be what I had missing all along?

But I had nothing to lose.

A few months later, a "new me" emerged, after learning how to turn my metabolism on.
