Can The Weather affect your appetite!!!!! YES!!!!

Well its one of those Hot and humid stormy days here in Johannesburg South Africa!!!

I love this weather you can almost see that the ground is finally relieved from its dry and dusty state, all the dust settles and the air feels so clean and fresh!

Its so strange on rainy days how all i want to do is eat! I want to be cuddled up on my couch with a blanket, lots of great movies a big box of popcorn, and chocolates, followed by a cup oftea and biscuits!!!! Yum!!!

Im almost tempted to do just that after work!

Well ill deffinately be doing the couch and tv thing, and maybe even the popcorn!!! Iv found a great microwave popcorn maker that uses water!!!! so im holding back on my calories today so that i can have some of that later.But no chocs !!! oh well!

I really find that weather affects my appetite!!!! I dont know if anyone else feels like that!

But when its really hot here like africa gets all i want is fruit and water i dont crave nearly as much junk in the heat!!!!

Then in winter when its freezing!!! theres nothing like a good curry or stew or pasta!!!!

Then rainy days are treat days for me! Hot chocolate biscuits and sweets!!!! HMMMMM

Well i hav absolutely no chocolates at home and have promised myself to go straight home after work so no stopping at the shops!!!!

My rainy days are now healthy treat days… which in the end is all for the better cause there is no guilt involved at all!

    Weather does affect my moods and cravings. Just like you on rainy or cold days a blanket and warm foods and drink sound perfect :) Go for the popcorn…Ive never heard of one using water…I’ll have to look into that. Be careful of that chocolate ;)

    Sometimes it does affect your appetite. You just have to make sure you don’t underate even is you have to eat something small.

    I want hot cocoa on those cold days, I think probably cuz that’s what my grandma always made me when I’d come in from the cold!

    Yeah sometimes I feel that way too with the weather. It just makes me lazy sometimes and when I am lazy that usually leads to boredom which of course leads to overeating, lol! I try to find something to do like visit this site or exercise or clean etc etc. Something to make me not get toooooo confortable and start thinking of food. Enjoy your snack later. Great work.
