Strange question



Recommended Posts

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 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

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
