Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to Ask A Doctor,

Thanks for your query.

I have gone through your query. I would like to know your age and if you are taking any medicines for diabetes and BP?

It is best to restrict to 2 cups of tea per day. If you want to drink more then I would suggest you to take it sugarless or you can use the sugar free cubes. You can also replace it with jaggery or drink green tea with honey. Any other form of sugar other than the refined sugar is better.

I hope this helps you. Please feel free to discuss further.

Hi,

Sorry for the delay.

Ok, so you are obese according to your BMI. You need to follow a strict diet as said in the diet chart and do regular exercise such as cycling, brisk walking or swimming to lose weight. I would suggest you to avoid tea with sugar as much as possible.

I hope this helps you. Please feel free to discuss further.
