Am I the only one looking forward to that? ;-) I am always hot. I wouldn't mind putting on a sweater once in awhile if I get cold. There is only so much you can take off when you get hot! Hah

After losing 65 lbs, I have noticed that my hands get cold very easily. Overall, I am now comfortable with the thermostat set 2 degrees higher during the Texas summer heat.

Btw it was a 2 hour drive, It doesnt last long maybe an hour when it hits but its crazy. Last night I went to bed with a hoodie jacket over my pyjamas ATTRACTIVE lol

Im a year out and am always cold. I didn't really start having an issue til i was probably about 6 mos out. I usually always have to have a sweatshirt with me. For example at work my coworkers will complain that its hot in the office and ill have my little heater blowing on me. It sucks but its a little inconvenience for losing 90 lbs.

Yes I was always cold for several weeks after the surgery. Even now, I've lost about 93lbs in 4 monts, I don't sweat as easily as I did before. I barley sweat as a matter of fact. I have basically removed a 93lbs jacket, so yes you will be cold until your body adjusts.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      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!!
