Season ?



Recommended Posts

Do we lose more weight in summer or winter. I live in Alabama and when it's hot it's hot and when it's cold it's freezing. Does the temp make a difference?

I doubt seasons have much to do with losing weight except for holidays. It's also harder to work out outdoors in the winter so that may play into it but temperatures should not matter.

I have a friend that got band on November and lost alot of weight. She said that the cold temperature made band feel tighter. So i wanted to see if this was true.

So, it's reversed there? You can't exercise outdoors in the summer since it's too hot and humid?

when my hub was in af, we were stationed in minneapolis, mn

on one of my success storeis at losing weight, i lost 50 pounds from like nov to march (in sub zero temps)

and then another time in san antonio when hub was stationed there in 110+ degrees

in summer or fall, 3500 cals is a pound--- if you eat more than that or drink more, you will gain..

regardless if its in my beloved south or alaska

so what is the moral of my story

dont overeat and try to eat healthy and exercise when you can

all seasons

all the best to all us bandits

      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.
