I've just discovered Chai Tea!!!!



Recommended Posts

Who knew it was so good? I've seen it in the store and heard of it but I've never been much of a hot tea drinker so I never tried it. However, I got a sample of spiced low carb chai in my bariatriceating.com sampler kit and I just fixed it and it is soooo good! It even smells wonderful too.

Mandi,

If you like the Big Train Low-Carb Chai (I love it, it tastes just like liquid gingerbread), you might also try Bigelow's vanilla Chai. You'll have to add a tablespoon of milk and a packet of Splenda.

Starbuck's Tazo brand is good too, it actually has a hint of black pepper.

Good evening to everyone,

I went to Walmart today and found some Chai tea made by Stash, so as I'm sitting here .......I'm sipping a cup now and I must say it is pretty darn good! I'm still going to try the Big Train brand after I finish this brand. I'm hoping it will be more creamier and richier than the Stash brand...Thanks everyone

I am a die-hard coffee drinker but I recently discovered this tea as well (Panera bread has the best but probably not as low cal) I find that chai tea has enough flavor to help me through the night time craving to just plain eat.

Ok, I'm sitting here enjoying my very first cup of Chai tea.... I got the Tazo brand Chai tea bags, and put one packet of Stevia sweetener (no calories or carbs, and no chemicals) in it, and I have to say it's amazing! Wow, how could I have turned my nose up at it for so long???

Thanks for starting this thread, I'd have never tried it without reading how good it is here, first!

I'm not much of a fancy tea drinker, but I watched Unwrapped and they covered Chai tea today.. and I remembered this thread.

I'm gonna try it!

They mixed theirs (Oregon Chai brand) with 1/2c of milk and made them into lattes.. looked yum.

I ordered the same thing, and just got my kit today! I am looking forward to having my tea tomorrow morning!

They actually recommend mixing it with the IDS Multi-Pro whey vanilla-cinnamon. I've got a bucket of the Protein, and I still have my sample of tea, so I'll give it a try sometime.

Ok, nobody laugh. What is chai? I know I need to find something to drink other than my Bustelo (very strong coffee). You're talking to someone who has never been in a Starbucks. Thanks.

Aw, it was supposed to, I think. Blue packet? That sucks, too, 'cause I thought it was one of the better ones that they sent. A lot of the ones in the sampler aren't high quality Protein (the cans, bullet, and that NASTY Delite crap, for starters), so I've actually still got about half the bag left. Try the Whey Gourmet chocolate Peanut Butter and the Matrix Chocolate samples. Those were the best, IMO.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
