Hello,

Currently being over weight I sweat like crazy. This is so uncomfortable especially in the summer. Can anyone tell me do they notice after having the Vsg surgery do they sweat as much ?

Thanks

Josie

No as a matter of fact most of us are freezing afterwards, it's awesome!!!

The ghrelin hormone in your stomach plays a small part in body temp regulation, so I've read.

May be one of the reasons...

This is the first time in oh...FOREVER that I am not sorry to see winter go! I am freaking freezing all the time. I sit with an electric throw and crawl in to a warm electric blanket.

It sure didn't see that coming! But Come on summer!

I have always been cold and it's even worse now.. I hate it!

My husband laughs at me all the time now because I have always been so "hot natured" griping if anyone said they were cold.... Now I wear fleece pajamas and socks around the house complaining abou how cold it is and I have to crawl in to a warm bed with my electric blanket (which I never would have tolerated before)! He thinks it is hilarious and now I regret all those mean things I said about people freezing and how they could put on more clothes if they just would. Sometimes, I can't get enough layers to stay warm! It is rather funny!

Have not shed a drop of sweat since surgery, in fact Im freezing cold all the time.

I had to laugh a little when I read your post as I am FREEZING all the time now. I even carry a sweat shirt in the summer now for when I get chilled. I dress in layers and as soon as I get to warm I take off a layer but in an hours time I putting the layer back on.

For me it's awesome to be cold.. I was always overly hot and sweating when I gained the weight, even in winter after the surgery I went and bought the most luxurious cashmere cardigan. I love that thing it feels so nice to wear layers and feel good. just yesterday I was running around all day and at the end of the day I was still wearing it! on a semi warm California day!

Happy!

I try to take it as a positive - getting cold easily. It's only my hands and feet at the moment - still too much "insulation" on my stomach and thighs. I am looking forward to shivering like a Chihuahua on too much caffeine!

I am cold all the time! Its awesome!! LoL

Cold all the time. Also low BP now isn't helping. At three weeks post op it was 105/60.... It's crazy...

I'm sooooo happy to read this post! It's actually embarrassing because I sweat so much . Looking forward to being cold!

Someone I know was told by a doctor that people who lose a great deal of weight often get cold easily because all the blood vessels that used to feed their larger self are close to the surface, no longer buried in layers of fat, so our blood cools more quickly.

I used to break out in a sweat when I peeled an orange. Now I am down 110 lbs. I am below my goal weight and cold all the time

I use to be constantly hot & now I am typically the only one freezing.
