Why do i always gain at least 5 pounds during the winter months?

Question

I lose it during the summer, but in the winter I gain it. Why?

Answer 1

three reasons:

Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas.

:)

Answer 2

During the winter months it is a little colder so we tend to stay inside more. When we're chilled it is couch and blanket time. We don't burn off the calories doing that. Also, we have more holiday meals to eat during the winter. That's a problem with me too. You are not alone.

Answer 3

I could be because during the winter you are not as active or that winter comfort foods are higher in calories and fat than summer comfort foods so you may be eating more

Answer 4

You're probably far more active during the warm/hot months (and you have more incentive to diet when you're wearing those clothes)

During the cold months, people are stuck inside much more and we have lots of holidays that call for good food. :) It's really very common and once you get back to your more active life you'll lose it again.

Answer 5

you eat more and work out less, and it's much easier to ignore it, because sweaters are much more forgiving than thank tops and shorts.
If you are worried, try joining a gym or some kind of fitness/ yoga program. It's a fun way to socialize and keep the pounds away.

Answer 6

Like me, I cook more often cookies, pies, puddings and other good smelling foods. Yea It is cold outside and my toes get cold.
I like to be bare bear & I curl up in th electric blanket on the couch also.

Answer 7

because it snows out which makes you not able to go outside and be actice. Also christmas time when u eat lol alot with ur family. Try dancing inside ur house. It's one way to be actice and is fun too.

Answer 8
