Do you feel sleepy or hungry all the time during winter time?

Maybe it was the cold weather, I felt sleepy and hungry easily during the days of work. I just can't help it. Sometimes, during the break time, I might grab a cookie from the vending machine, or I might take a few minutes go to my car to get a nap. I might just have to control myself on this bad habit during winter time. Do you feel the same too?

Sleepy? Not really, unless I have been outside in weather that has been very cold, harsh, or windy to the point where it is beating me up big time. Hungry? YES. I find myself going through a lot more food in the winter (not that I mind because I like eating), mostly because I hang outside more often, while doing normal things waiting for the bus, hiking through snow, trying to stay warm, pushing cars and trucks out of snow mounds, and this on top of being a big guy, where I already a lot more than a regular person. I don't think I stop eating. When my family makes chili, we make two pots, one for me, and the other for them (sad, but true because I can eat an entire pot by myself . It is also a good time for bulking when you are pushing your body harder in bad weather on top of have to constantly fueling it.

Yes, often it happends to me to feel both, hungry and sleepy. Sleepy because the day is too short, and when you come from the cold of outside, to the warm and cozy home, it gets you very sleepy, this is what it happends to me. And hungry, only when i stay for long time in the house, because i am getting bored, i eat many times a day

The cold weather makes me sleepy all the time. I just want to snuggle up in best most of the day. At work I'm constantly yawning and trying to stay awake. If left alone I might end up taking a quick nap. However, my appetite is completely not there. I don't get really hungry nor do I get cravings for any kind of food. You would think that since it's cold out I would want some hot food but I don't. I think I prefer the sleep over the food.
