Strange question

I've been on liquid diet for approximately 2 weeks, I have lost about 10lbs and I am FREEZING!!!! Has anyone else experienced this?

Just wondering if I'm alone or anyone else have this?

Yes, I have experienced it. I still am and I am no longer on just liquids. I've been cold since I had surgery. I was always hot before and couldn't stand it when the office gals were freezing, so now I wear layers and layers (and still freeze). I'll take cold if that means loosing the weight. I've heard it goes away after a while.

Im much much colder than I used to be.I used to turn of the heating and my flat mates were angry:-)) lol Now Im the one who turns the heating on and wears warm socks...it goes hand in hand with weightloss and less calories intake!

I am sooo glad for those of you who responded. I really felt like I was losing my mind. I am typically the gal who sweats just thinking of the heat!!! I will absolutely take the cold, if it means weight loss.:straight

You'll learn to wear long sleeves if you will be indoors. You will start bringing a sweater or light jacket everywhere with you. This is very common.

I see that you had your band quite awhile ago. Your still cold? Wow.!! (I really don't think I will mind, as I am usually the 'oven type'.

And by the way, CONGRATULATIONS..... you are truely making great progress on your losses. I see you are very close to goal!! Good for you. Your are an inspiration.!!

I have noticed this and didn't check this site. I am much colder than I was before the band. I thought I was just old and the weather is cold. I also get hot easily though but that could be menopause. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who is freezing. This is a good sign for weight loss.

The more you lose, the more you will notice it. I used to hate the hot 100 degree plus Texas summers, but as of last year, really enjoy the outdoors again, and have come to really dislike the winters I used to wear shorts, and sandals in. I guess that comes with losing all that padding/ isulation.

(Not complaining, I'll take a little cold natured change over the fat)

18 months post op.

210 pounds lost, at goal!

Life is good!

I am right there with you all. I am cold all the time. I have never in my life been cold like this. I have lost weight many times before and never experienced this. I am not complaining at all!! I love it. I like bundling up much more than sweating like a pig. lol

This is very interesting and I am glad I know. I when i'm smaller next winter I will be able to wear my turtlenecks and sweatshirts and possibly even look good in many layers and not overstuffed.

thanks for the post. I am reading up as I am getting ready for the big day and what to expect
