Summertime (food) Sadness

It's 95+ degrees here and summer's fast on it's way. With the stifling heat and muggy feels I get so uninspired to eat anything. Today for instance instead of eating my planned foods I ended up eating about 2 cups of some crazy cole slaw invention to avoid cooking. I told myself I'd get a burger when out for errands but then the heat made that so unnappetizing.

Does this happen to anyone else? Like even if you were starving to death and there were a ton of food left at dinner you couldn't touch it to save your life? I feel like when the weather gets like this I should start a plan to eat all my cals early before it's too hot and late, late at night when my appetite's back.

***Good thing "no eating after 6" isn't really a thing!***

Here's an anthem:



MCD's Summertime Gagness (sad food anthem)

Clean that up before you go
Summertime Gagness
I just can't eat that right now
I don't think I'm ready yet

I got my stretch pants on tonight
Leaving in the dark in the cool moonlight
Done my hair up real big beauty queen style
Bra is off, I'm feeling aliiiive!

Oh, my God, it's 95 degrees outside
and I
don't think
I could eat a thing
Honey, I'm on fire, I see food everywhere
Nothing tastes good anymore

(1, 2, 3, 4)

Clean that up before you go
Summertime gagness
I just want to wear some shorts
But I'm not ready yet

I got that summertime, summertime gagness
S-s-summertime, summertime gagness
Got that summertime, summertime gagness
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I'm feelin' Taco Bell tonight
Cruising to get 2 tacos for 99
Got my taco sauce my saddlebags side
I know if I go, I can eat some toniiiiiiiiiiight!

Oh, my God, it's 95 degrees outside
and I
don't think
I could eat a thing
Honey, I'm on fire, I see food everywhere
Nothing tastes good anymore

(1, 2, 3, 4)

Clean that up before you go
Summertime Gagness
I just wanna eat a burger
But I'm not ready yet

I got that summertime, summertime gagness
S-s-summertime, summertime gagness
Got that summertime, summertime gagness
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

(high pitch girly voice)
Think I'll miss food forever
Like the steaks, baked potatoes and cuUUuurly fries
Late is better than never
Even if it's closed I'm gonna driiiIIIiiiveve (driIIIiiiive, drive)

I got that summertime, summertime gagness
S-s-summertime, summertime gagness
Got that summertime, summertime gagness
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Clean that up before you go
Summertime Gagness
I just want an ice cream cone
But it melts way too fast

I got that summertime, summertime gagness
S-s-summertime, summertime gagness
Got that summertime, summertime gagness
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

    This is not a problem that I have. I love grilling on the beach or by the pool in 90+ degree weather. I just need beer . . .

    I think I should change one of those hooks to

    "I just wanted you to know. I can't eat this shet."

    but I like the way they are. IDK we'll see. I better decide before my time's up b/c I don't think I can request a mod edit for that.

    I have this issue. When it gets too warm, I just don't want to eat anything. Ice lollies, fruit and veg are about the only things I can tolerate!

    Great remake! Summertime Sadness is one of my favorite songs but I almost like your version better.

    I too am one of those people that hate food when it's hot. When it gets like that.. the only thing I want to do is cut a watermelon in half and eat the whole thing.

    However, I am always in the mood for beer.. especially when it is hot out!

    How about one of the Kashi cereals that has protein? Like the cinnamon crunch one? Or Honey Bunches of Oats has a new morning energy line, and I think that has protein. Oooooor, you could get Forte protein gelato, which is really nice. They only have 4 flavors, though. I haven't tried the ginger or vanilla, just chocolate and espresso. If you see the two at the bottom, don't get the Coffee & Donuts, it's like stale donuts in there, but the Mexican Chili Chocolate is fantastic.

    Gezpacho and watermelon mint soup are my friends in summer. Put some Greek yogurt in them and they become macro friendly.

    i don't even get how this is possible.

    I feel like so many of my threads go in chit chat fun and games but they can't compete with spankbang threads?

    1) can there be a new category called "flirt" or "games" that would be separate from "chit chat" or something more like for something like this?

    2) can this thread be moved into nutrition and food b/c it turns out it's actually about trying to meet protein and other macros when appetite is a problem?
