Hey all. Not sure how many of you suffer from this. Whenever the heat comes my appetite drops. It really affects my stomach. It was well over 90 today and only gonna get hotter. Dont want to live on frozen protein drinks. Any suggestions.

Thx

    Have you just started eating more? I haven't ever had this issue so I am curious to hear responses. If you have just started eating more cals it really does get easier in time. Try small meals 6 times per day.

    Hi. Yes, I've definitely felt this in the past (before I was eating more)!! The heat and humidity here (Midwest US) makes the air feel thick, and my appetite goes waaaaaay down (I used to consider this a good thing). So, I'm planning to do exactly what you mentioned, frozen smoothies, ice cold protein drinks, homemade frozen yogurt, cold cottage cheese, raw veggies & fruits...basically trying to keep tons of cold items handy! I have a feeling I am going to drinks lot of my calories this summer!!! But like Lucia said, breaking your cals into as many meals as is realistic will help too.

    Interested to hear what others have to say:)
