I'm 6 months out and am cold all the time (I used to be hot all the time), As for tired. I still have tired days sometimes. It's a hugh change on our bodies, it takes a toll. But other days I feel awesome. Just seem to tire easily sometimes still...

Completely normal. And with time it will get back to your norma normal. Except the cold part.. It's a major complaint for a lot of us and sounds like it will probably last forever.. I'd rather be cold than fat so no biggy for me ;)

i coldnt walk to my washing machine without stopping to rest til i was 8 weeks....didnt get decent energy til 8 weeks i wasnt getting 600 calories so that played into it

im 6 months post-op and am still freezing all the time....

I take monthly B12 shots. It helps me when I feel a lack of energy. And yes, I'm always cold, unless I'm in the middle of a hot flash! Ugghh.

I'm 9 weeks out and still tire easily! Not near as bad as first month but still an issue. I am SO cold!!! I'm freezinf all the time!!!

I am four weeks out and I am finding that I am cold most of the time as well. I will take that any day though over the constantly being hot and drippy with sweat!

I am 5 weeks out and I am freezing all of the time ..

2.5 months. Freezing cold. Can't wait for summer where this will be an asset. I've always run hot my whole life but since immediately after sleeve, cold cold cold. Metabolism must be shutting down to conserve energy. Stupid tricky body...
