Summer Snacking

I find that it's a little easier on my diet when it's summer because I seem to have more fresh food in the house. I'm trying to focus more on snacking on things like carrots and cucumber. Even though I salt my cucumber and radishes, it seems like a better choice than chips, which is what I go for when it's cold outside. Does anyone else find this easier in the summer?

I love the nice weather because I don't feel so deprived like I can do with some of the winter eating. Hotter it is the more I enjoy a salad

Summer is when I tend to shed the most weight. I think it's partly due to the weather being too hot for heavy food. I love starches, but they don't sit well when it's close to a hundred degrees. Give me salad, please!

Cold fresh fruit and salad bits are the best in summer. I also eat much better in the summer months.

I have been finding the nicer weather a struggle. I like icecreams far too much and picnic style food which is usually the cheapest and mostly not the healthiest choices as I am on a tight budget. At the beach not so long ago I enjoyed a cone of chips and mini hot donuts, bad

I like ice cream too! I also love fresh fruit and vegetables. I love it when the garden is ready. There is nothing better than heading to the garden and grabbing a snack. I need to find a way to stop heading to the ice cream stand.
