Is it true that if you dress warm on warm days it can help to lose weight?

[XiaoMandy]

Not just water weight but like you have a higher heart rate all day, you breath a little heavier etc... is there any truth to this?

[Jager66]

no, being cold will make you burn more calories though, so will being at higher altitude. Being at higher altitude will also make you want to eat less, even being someone like Colorado vs the coast can make a difference. People at Mnt. Everest base camp need a shit load of calories, high altitude plus living in very cold conditions.

No, you just sweat more and feel uncomfortable all day.

[XiaoMandy]

ya but also you feel like you are working out, higher heart rate, doesn't that mean more calories being burned? And it's not uncomfortable if you wear wicking material right?

[aficionado]

I'm not fully aware of how it works, but there is hardly any scientific research that proves wearing warm clothes in hot weather can help in weight loss.

No you'll just be hot as fuck and angry all day. I used to have super hairy arms and was embarressed by it and was chubby so I'd wear pants and long sleeves all summer in 80-90 degree weather and never lost any weight just hot and uncomfortable. I know shave my arms and am fine wearing short sleeves but still won't wear shorts.

I can handle the heat, I'm pretty heat tolerant... I just want to lose a few pounds that's all...

If you wanna lose weight you have to eat plenty of fruits, veggies and lean meats, drink lots of water and exercise.

[Hopefuldreamer8]

No. Just exercise if you want to lose weight. That won't do anything except make you sweat. If anyone has lost weight from that, it's definitely just water.

[XiaoMandy]

Really? But doesn't your body work harder to stay cool by like, increasing your heart rate and breathing and all that? isnt' that calories being burned?

[KittieCat]

You'll sweat and lose water weight. You won't look any different though and will be horribly dehydrated. Hit the gym.

[Flow_like_the_wind]

Not really. You do sweat more. You'll probably feel like drinking more water.

[Applefan1]

Not true that I know of.

[Raymond_Reddington]

you'd most likely pass out

[XiaoMandy]

pshhhh I can handle it :)
