So I was wondering, while dripping in sweat from doing laundry, have you stopped sweating like a pig after you lost weight?

Oh yeah ... just wait. Soon you'll be complaining about being cold all the time.

Yep.. it's all about the cold these days...

My kids are doing to LOVE that. I sleep with the window open at 20 degrees out. Oh how fun it will be to actually wear cute sweat shirts!!

Sweatshirts? I wear head-to-toe North face. Even my slippers are North face and suitable for 80 below... I am that sad and that cold...

After years of being known for never wearing a coat in winter and, on one occasion, flip flops to a hospital appointment in the snow, I now have 5 coats.

And new thermal gloves.

And thermal socks.

And three fleeces.

I have even bought a hat....

OH YEAH!!!

I can shop for HOURS now... No more sweating after barely walking into one store. Man, I don't miss that. Although I mostly shop thrift stores because I've found such amazing deals - paying retail prices isn't as much fun as finding a killer deal. I have to dress in layers for work AND have my little heater on under my desk. I even wear fleece arm warmers (kind of like long fingerless gloves). Brrrrrrrrrrr!!! I wear sweatshirts and socks to bed too. BUT... I wouldn't trade it for anything. Then again, I say that NOW and it's only 52 degrees out. Let's wait to see what my tune is when it is 30 degress below zero. (I guess there isn't a limit as to how much clothes a person can put ON, right?!)

Thanks for the good news! My dream of living in Hawaii just got a lot nicer!

I sweat all the time and it's miserable. Especially in a suit at work. When I give seminars it's very destructing to be dripping with sweat when nobody else is. If my surgery cures this it will be life changing to me.

It will happen!! I used to sweat just thinking about shopping putting my son in the car, pushing a cart around, going to formal dinners, lunch, anything! Now 6 wks, 35 pounds, 21.5 inches out No sweating like that at all!!! It will be life changing and you'll love it!!

Great just as winter is setting in, I will be double cold. At least I will be able to wear jeans again.

So great to hear

I was just like that..before surgery..i lived in flip flops 365 days a year. I never wore a coat or a sweatshirt in winter. I would literally sweat buckets doing nothing..i would sit on the couch at home and just sweat. I would sweat if i walked, went shopping, walked slowly around a block. I would sweat while sitting in church. I would sweat in the friggen pool while swimming. I would sweat while getting changed out of my bathing suit. And now.....

I dont ever sweat anymore. I take hot hot showers and my face doesnt drip with sweat. I walk, i shop, i go for coffee, i go to church, i do everything..without sweating!!

In fact i get cold now. I wear coats, jackets, fleece sweatshirts and hoodies. My hands freeze often and i now need to wear socks and shoes. I can swim and not come out of the pool with a face full of sweat..there is no dripping sweat on my face and down my back from a short walk with a friend. Point is: ya just dont sweat doing nothing.. In order to sweat, i need to exercise like run/walk.

You will find that this surgery will change your sweaty sticky life forever!! Look forward to the freedom!!
