This article may have shed some light on a subject that I've been thinking about for awhile. The advent of temp control means your body does not need to regulate your eating patterns as much. Interesting read.

Heating and air conditioning might also be to blame. When people and animals go above or below a "thermoneutral" ambient temperature, they lose weight - if it is too cold they burn fat to stay warm, and if too hot their appetites decrease. But studies show that people are keeping their houses warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer than they did a few decades ago, so these natural influences on weight are negated.
