Last year, around this time, I was already beginning my descent into perfection. The numbing air was an absolute fantastic distraction from food, as all I could think about was how cold I was and how delicious it would be to cuddle near a warm fire. I had need not food, or any wavering weakness, as I thoroughly enjoyed watching my nails change into that delectable shade of bluish white. Not to mention, and take note to this, fellow EDNOS, that the season of cold is the best time to lose weight--despite what the media portrays as the period of "stocking up for the winter."
What many fail to comprehend, is that by being constantly surrounded by a cold environment, the body initiates homeostasis. To put simply, the body is burning fat, calories, and muscle mass just to maintain a steady, consistent body temperature. So...thank you to New York's fabulous lake effect snow. <3
Why people eat so much during the winter still baffles me. My mindset, during the lovely, frost-covered months, is that I can be completely and utterly satisfied with a nice cup of tea. The three teas which are most effective at making one drop the disgusting lbs are:
~Green Tea (it is common knowledge that this raises one's metabolism)
~Oolong Tea (it is well known in China as a tea that clears out one's digestive system)
~Senna Tea/asian dieting tea (in an ode to any lovers of Mia, this tea acts as a stimulant laxative)
To all that seek a thinner beauty,
let the first fall of snow be as
perfect as we all will be.
~Noi
