Summer for me. I come from south Texas and grew up without air conditioning so I can tolerate the heat better than most but cold I absolutely hate. On top of that, since being a carnivore I’ve lost so much fat that I’m getting even more chilled that normal.
As far as I’m concerned the only thing cold weather is good for is hunting.

I have lived in Florida for over 63 years. Prior to that I lived just north of Chicago. I have experienced both, hot-humid summers of Florida and cold, bitter snow-covered winters of Illinois.

As far as preferring one season over the other - All I will offer is what my daughter says - it's not that it never gets cold in Florida but, at least we don't have to shovel the cold away to get out of the house.

I'm in Ohio. It's below freezing. There is snow on the ground. It sucks! lol.
I will take 90 degrees, the hot sun, and my backyard pool over this hibernation weather every time.

My father and mother were from Toledo and when dad was retiring from the military he was asked if he was going to go back to Toledo and he he said no way in hell was he going to ever spend another winter in Ohio.

My Dad was from southern Colorado. Where they lived it, it was between 7500 ft and 9000 ft - depending on if they were in the upper place (summer) or lower place (winter). Bother homes were log cabins with wood stove and an outhouse.

He spent 20 years in the US Navy. When he retired, we were living just north of Chicago. We moved to Florida since he was tired of living in the snow. I have been here for 63+ years and have no intention to move to a colder climate.

I agree with you that the sun is more accommodating than what we have with the winter period where the snow can keep you indoors against your will. So, I have seen a couple of friends wish to experience summer all year long.

    • "Marching into March with Much Motivation"

      For this months challenge, we are going to support each other in our efforts to get up and move. Spring is in the air. The weather is getting better. Get out there and MOVE! Go for walks, hike some trails if they aren't too muddy. Or just make a goal to get on the treadmill or lift some weights more than usual throughout the month. Get in the habit now, and we just might have beach bodies when summer officially hits, lol. 

       

      Just like before, we encourage you to check in daily, and share what you have eaten, perhaps a weigh-in if you're willing, and enjoy in some small talk. 

      The March drawing will be for a 4-pack of Carnivore Bars!

      Every Reply in this topic will count as an entry for this month's prize drawing. Back-to-back posts count as 1 entry as a counter to spamming.

    • Today is February 1st and marks the first day of "National Fasting February" - and yes, this is a thing. Google it!

      For this month's challenge, we are going to support each other in our efforts to practice various forms of fasting throughout the month. The type of fasting you wish to do is entirely up to you. We are going to encourage INTERMITTENT FASTING, that is to put it simply, skipping a meal so that you are only eating 2 meals a day instead of the traditional 3 meals a day. The goal is to enjoy these meals within an 8 hour "feasting window" and then no food in the remaining 16 hours "fasting window" (in which 8 of those hours you should be sleeping).

      An example is waking up at 7am, but waiting until 11am-noon for your first meal, and then having dinner at 6-7pm for your 2nd meal. Other people prefer to eat a breakfast, then a mid-day lunch, and skip dinner. 

      If you want to throw in a 24, 48, or 72 hour fast just to show off by all mean do so, lol.
