Winter Pounds

Wear more clothes when you are cold. Drink hot drinks like tea or herbal
tea.

That's an excellent rationalizaiton for eating your sweets!

I don't know....but it is generally cold in the winter...would that have
something to do with it? Where do you live and what is the average temp?

Interestingly, I do know several women to claim, no matter how they dress,
that they are freezing when outside in wintertime. It's as if it's a mental
thing. As I've not worn their shoes, it's hard to relate.

Tell them to wait till they hit menopause, that will change!

Sweets keep you warm?

I drink coffee or tea or have a bowl of soup if I need to warm up my
insides.

Socks, sweats, sweatshirts and sweaters warm up the outside.

The only way a candy bar warms me up is that it makes me feel so tired
and sick I go to bed -- and that's pretty much the quilt doing all the
work there. ;-)
