How do the seasons affect you at your goal weight?

Do you still carry extra heat with loose skin in summer? do you enjoy summer more? how much weight did you lose? are you cooler/less sweaty carrying less weight?

Yes, less sweaty, less hot, less chub rub, less feet swelling.
I lost 50pounds.(20 to go till goal)

This coming summer will be my first at my TW so I’ll get back to you on how hot things get over the course of a season. I just returned from Maui this morning where the temps were 78° - 85° for the week I was there. I was comfortable and never felt like the heat slowed me down. I lost 157lbs so, yes I was definitely cooler and everything heat related was vastly improved.

After losing 80 pounds summers are much better because I'm not as sweaty. I used to sweat constantly even doing nothing. Now it has to be hot and/or humid for me to sweat in the summer even while being moderately activity.

It's great being able to wear summer dresses and skirts without having my thighs rub together. I also enjoy being able to wear whatever I want and not having to worry about covering up parts of my body.

During the late fall - early spring I'm always freezing though. I thought after a few years of maintaining my weight my body would have adjusted to carrying way less fat and being leaner, but 5 years later I'm still cold. I just have to stay prepared. I carry extra jackets and sweaters with me and I layer up.

I feel like my thighs will still rub together after weightloss because I may get loose skin? I have about 130lbs to lose.

My inner thighs were a trouble spot. When I hit my goal they were wobbly and deflated.

Since I was overweight for so long and older, I wondered if it was something I would just have to deal with. I still kept going with my daily brisk walking and strength training.

During year 2 of maintenance they started to firm up and by year 4 my thighs looked like I was never overweight/obese. This is just my experience however.

Best of luck with your weight loss!

Thanks so much! In my lower belly and triceps yes. Although it did not take as long as my inner thighs took to firm up they eventually did.
