    Every year. I lose my appetite when it's hot and humid, even with all the delicious BBQ food going on. Just made it easier for me to lose weight when I lived on Guam since it's summer all year round lmao

    I was in Guam for two weeks many years ago. Went scuba diving without a wetsuit in March! March in Guam was heaven.

    Not often we have this problem in the UK however we do have a heat wave at the moment. My problem is not so much not having an appetite but not wanting to cook anything. I usually like my meat and veg.

    But in the heat I find myself grabbing sandwiches and cold stuff like ice cream more so not really a help to me.

    I send my man out to grill and we have entree salads with the meat he cooks ;)

    He minds the heat far less than I do.

    Heatwave in the UK currently and the heatwave mixed with bright sunshine and my dodgy eyes is triggering migraines

    My cals are the wrong side of 1000 recently but I just can't face the nausea

    Heck I can't even manage more than a quarter tub of halo top

    The heat doesnt affect my appetite but I am more active in summer. I am outdoors, work out more, and get more steps. I also crave summer fruits and popsicles more. In winter, I am like a bear. I am sluggish with no energy and I practically hibernate.

    I'm sometimes having a lower appetite, but am definitely enjoying salads more. I'm wondering if the heat is contributing to water retention? Apparently that's a thing. My weight is yoyoing like mad the last week or two between up to 6lbs. Drinking lots of water though!

    I usually lose weight in the summer because I don't have an appetite for heavier foods. I tend to eat a lot more salads and lean grilled meats and fish and such. I still get hungry, but my appetite is for lighter fare. I cancel some of that out with cold beer...I love cold beer on a hot day.

    I am also a lot more active in the warmer months.

    I work inside an office so, while it is hot outside, it doesn’t bother me. I’m only out in the heat to and from my car and then in the evenings while I’m out watering my garden, taking the dog for a walk or going for a run. But over the weekend we were at a water park so being out in the sun all day, I didn’t get hungry at all. We didn’t even eat lunch until 5pm. I still wasn’t hungry at that point, I just thought we should probably have something to eat.

    My husband works out in the sun all day and oftentimes he will work the entire day without eating anything because he just can’t, it will make him feel sick
