I have always been a very warm guy, but since surgery I get cold so easily. I know I am not anemic or running a fever. Just curious if any other guys experienced this?

Since my band and now revision I am always cold. My husband is dying of heat and I have a sweatshirt on, lol! This seems to be a normal thing with bariatric patients.

Seems like fat burns at a lower temp than the junk we had been eating before. :) For about the first year the only place I was warm was the gym or in my bed with footsie pajamas and 3 blankets! But all so worth it,, hang in there it gets better!

I'm 8 weeks out and down almost 40 pounds and I am also freezing all the time! I was always hot before. Today my son had a soccer game and it was 50 degrees out and I felt like it was 20 below!

I experience the freezing also. I think it's normal for us especially since we shed so much weight quickly In the beginning.

Lady's I feel bad for all of you. I am a 30 year old 330 pound guy and last night had to sleep with three extra blankets and the fire place going all night. Oh and the heat was set at 71...LOL!

Good luck staying warm!

I'm 5 months out and freezing all the time. All the time. Prior to surgery i was hot all the time. Very strange change of pace for me. But I've been told it's very normal.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
