I know this subject has been discussed before because I posted in it. However, the more weight I'm losing the colder I am. I can't stand the AC but we have to have it on so it won't be so hot. When watching TV I am completely wrapped in a blanket in order to stay warm. I sleep in flannel PJ's with a thick blanket and comforter. Do any of you know why our bodies change like that? Will it ever stop meaning will I stay cold all the time?

Have you had your thyroid checked? Hypothyroidism can cause the type of cold you're talking about. When my dose of thyroid hormone isn't high enough, I'm miserable cold; can't seem to regulate my body temperature. But when the hormone level is just right, I'm totally fine. Just a thought.....

No I haven't. I will mention it to my doc. Thanks.

Think of your body as a campfire, the more wood you throw on, the hotter that fire burns, same thing with food. As us you decrease the amount of food, your metabolism slows. That and fat is an insulator, as you lose it, your heat loss increases. Yes it will get better as your body adjusts, exercise and building muscle will help boost your metabolism.

It's why animals (including humans) put on weight in winter. For the insulation. When you lose, you lose your insulation. The more weight you lose, the colder you will feel.

But it doesn't sort of level off, or maybe you just acclimatise after a while. Maybe after 3 or 4 years or so? Lol!

I'm freezing all the time now, too, but considering a lost an entire person in body weight, it doesn't surprise me. I'll take cold and healthy anyday.

I am seriously freezing all the time now. Before losing weight, I would wear short sleeves in the winter because I was always so sweaty. Now, it's 70 degrees outside and I'm wearing a hoody and freezing, In fact even as I type this right now, I'm covered in a thick fuzzy blanket yet still cold.

Fat is insulation. The more fat you lose, the less insulation you have. It makes sense we're cold.

Thanks guys for your responses. @Mis73 I totally feel you.

i freeze at work mainly because they keep it fridget
