Does the weather effect how or what you eat?

I find it so much easier on a hot day to eat better and drink more, whereas like today where good ol' Tassie dropped in temperature (as it does) that I struggled at times to stop myself from going to the pantry!!

Why is that? Does this happen to anyone else??

    When you're cold, your body burns more calories just to stay warm (so I'm told). Plus, throughout most of history, Winter was a time when there wasn't much food available. Therefore, your body and brain want you to eat. It's hard-wired into you.
