I feel the same way. Can't seem to get warm. Wasn't like this before surgery. Guess the extra insulation helped!

I usually am. I don't know why but It's better than being hot and sweaty all the time. :P

I had that happen in the past when I lost a good chunk of weight. I've heard it called "extra insulation" as a joke, but um yup.. it definately changes things.

I read on another "cold" thread here on vst that grehlin has been linked to body temp regulation. Makes sense.

When I lost significant weight with the band I was constantly freezing, and I had a surgeon tell me that it happens when we drop a lot of weight because the body is trying to "slow down" and "conserve calories."

He never really explained it more than that, but I found this article a while back that says the same thing in different terms lol

I was at my sons baseball game tonight, jeans and hoodie, and I was shivering I was so cold. I told my wife I'm losing my winter weight.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
