Why do we not lose weight in winters? #fullbodyworkoutathomeforbeginners #liveworkout

Yes, it’s possible to experience slower weight loss in winter, even when following a diet and workout plan. Here are a few reasons why:
1. Increased Appetite: Cold weather can increase hunger as the body requires more energy to stay warm, leading to a higher calorie intake. Comfort foods and warm beverages are also more tempting in winter.
2. Lower Physical Activity: People often feel less active in colder months due to shorter days, lower temperatures, and less outdoor activity. This can reduce overall calorie burn.
3. Thermal Regulation: In cold weather, the body focuses on maintaining warmth. While shivering burns calories, the overall metabolic boost is usually small unless you’re in freezing conditions for long periods.
4. Seasonal Hormonal Changes: Reduced sunlight exposure in winter may lower serotonin levels, which can impact mood and cravings, leading to overeating. Low Vitamin D levels might also indirectly affect metabolism and fat loss.
5. Water Retention: Cold weather can sometimes cause mild water retention due to less water intake and slower circulation, masking weight loss on the scale.

However, sticking to your routine with minor adjustments, like staying hydrated, eating warming low-calorie foods (e.g., soups, herbal teas), and exercising consistently, can still yield results. Consistency is key!
