Does colder weather increase your appetite?!
Does colder weather increase your appetite?
Answers: I think it does.....
I tend to cook more potatoes and hearty meals in winter.
The nights are longer and i tend to pig out watchin telly more.
I think you be more active in summer!! not for me no..colder weather decrease ur appetite. No, just the types of food I eat.
And want to sleep longer. I find in the summer I have less of an appetite due to the hot weather, so yes, I probably do have more of an appetite in the winter. We do tend to eat more in winter because we want warmth from the food we eat... So i guess yes it does increase the appetite...
Although im always hungry so it doesnt make a difference to me hehe For some people, yes because its a mechanism to burn fuel in order to keep warm hence the hunger for more food. Not sure it does that, but it makes me change the type of food I eat.
The only thing I notice is that hot weather decreases my appetite. yes, your body needs more energy to keep it at the right temperature eating more helps you give this extra energy to your body. Erm... It's been warmish recently and my appetite has been eager. I'd say cold weather decreases it but time christmas get here it will be craving for all the chocolate =] Yes, for stodgy food, stews and cottage pie with piles of veg yea that is true because i live in a desert country. (united arab emirates!) and if the a/c is not on.. (hot environment) i dunt really feel like eating.. yet if the a/c is on then i eat a lot.. so i guess that it does play a vertain role in determining peoples appetites.. :D Nature will increase your appetite. Animals and humans (same thing really), need more fat to survive the cold. No. Actually warmer does for me. I crave ice-blend smoothie everyday during the summer. yes. Yes.
The body needs more food to use as fuel and you tend to find you crave stews/casseroles more with chunky veg in I really don't know cause that is a hard question to answer because I'm alway's eating something. Where do you live and your picture is so sexy. Colder weather does make me hungrier and it makes me want comfort foods such as:
Beef Stew
Chicken Noodle Soup
Goulash
Beef Stroganoff
Chicken and Dumplings
Spaghetti
Vegetable Beef Soup
Macaroni and Cheese
Tomato soup with a grilled cheese sandwich
Pot roast with mashed potatoes and gravy
Pork Chops with mashed potatoes and gravy well we lose more energy in the winter so we need to eat more i suppose then again im ALWAYS eating so...meh *giggle
