I'm a freezy girl too. Exercise really helps warm me up for several hours. I love my hot Water bottle and fluffy socks too.

Yeppers, I'm constantly cold, and have been since about 4 months out. I burned up my husband and son through the winter, and now I stay cuddled up with a fleece blanket 80% of the time at the house.

It has gotten better over the last couple of months, but my PCP told me that it's just going to take time for my body to adjust to the lack of "insulation".

I've always been colder than most people even at my highest weight. but my hubby and 76 year old Mother were both always freezing everyone to death. Since we've all been banded it's so funny when I'm out with hubby or Mom and they are the ones complaining about every place being so cold. They both used to sweat at temperatures when I was looking for a jacket. Now they are more concerned about grabbing a jacket than I am.

And my Mom always has a snuggy in her recliner. Hubby also covers up while watching TV. Too funny. I don't think I'm colder than before, but once I have my hiatal hernia repaired and band revision next month, I should begin to lose again...hope I don't get any colder or I'll be wearing winter clothes year 'round! Oh well it will be worth it. I've been hanging around here, just in case my revision ends up being a sleeve.

I'm 4 weeks out and I can say that I am freezing more times then not. It must be something to do with eating less calories.

I'm constantly freezing. It's been about 100 degrees here in Tennessee for the past 2 weeks and I go outside during my lunch hour just to sit in the heat and warm up. At work I sit there with a sweater on and a big blanket around me. I'm with you, I thought I was going to die this past winter and as of now I have a trip scheduled to Chicago in November. I'm already dreading it because of the cold.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
