It was just about this time last year when I fell off the "wagon" and
began
my slide back to regain the weight I'd lost. I just realized that a big
factor in that was the colder weather. The cold is making me extremely
hungry. I'm still logging what I eat and even after I've reached my
daily
allocation of calories at which point I wasn't hungry when it was warm,
I'm
still hungry. So far I've been able to tough it out but it's so very
hard.
Hopefully I'll be able to overcome this by drinking a lot of non calorie
hot
tea and wrapping up in a blanket so I won't be so cold (and it's not that
cold here in Lubbock.) Since my WOE is heavy on the green veggie salads,
a
change has to come right there. I want only hot food.

Is anyone else suffering like this?

Yup, it's not that cold here either, (southern california), but with it
getting dark earlier, and needing a jacket, salads just don't appeal as
much
as a nice bowl of soup.
Maybe you can switch to some high veggie soups? I make an adapted chicken
tortilla soup (without any tortilla chips, cheese, and sometimes skip the
avocado) that ends up pretty low calorie.
I wouldn't be too surprised if you find out you do need a few more
calories in
the winter, but I think the hard part is finding how many more you can
handle.

Good Luck.

I'm going to try some soups next week. We'll see what happens.

Thanks,
