cold all the time

[shondaj 14]

Hello everybody im 2month out starting weight 223 current weight 169 I've notice since my surgery im always cold why is this and is anybody else having this problem

[KathyKY 2]

I just watched a YouTube video yesterday that addressed exactly that - I think it's pretty normal.

I asked about being cold all the time at my last appointment with the surgeon, and he said it's normal. I just try to remember to carry a sweater with me, or dress in some kind of layers if at all possible. My office stays so cold, it's like working in Antarctica so I'm not the only one sitting at my desk with a sweater on even though its 80 degrees outside!

After losing a lot of weight I am cold more than I was before. I dont have that extra person to keep me warm. Before surgery I would have 3 fans going when I was sleeping. now I have one fan on low setting and that is getting to be to much and might have to start adding more blankets.

I cannot wait to have this problem! I am so tired of being hot all the time and breaking out in sweats.

I am constantly freezing. Such a big change from before - I was always hot and could break a sweat just walking up one flight of stairs. Now I'm usually all bundled up even at home. I guess it's because I don't have 70 pounds of insulations anymore!

[RJ'S/beginning 5,357]

That is the reason..The extra insulation is gone....i have always slept with the window open summer and winter....Last night I was so cold I got up to put a sweater on and went back to bed.....I don't mind it being this way considering how hot I was all the time when I was fluffier!

At least now my hubby and I match as far as temperature control now...It used to be a war!!!!

I thought it's because we lost our insulation......I always noticed my thinner friends/family were cold while I was always hot...

Last night I went to bed with socks on, a sweatshirt, and grabbed an extra blanket......brrrrr......

Hubby likes the house warm, really warm in the wintertime......he's always cold..........I think he's looking forward to this year when we both will want a warm home.....

I can't wait to be cold!!!

I was always cold, even at 277 pounds. Now that I am 3.5 months post op and down to 216 pounds, I am constantly freezing. It is ridiculous!! Yesterday I was sitting in the living room in jeans, socks, shoes, t-shirt, and hoodie and my teeth were chattering!! My poor boyfriend has found himself sleeping next to an ice cube every night!!!

Space heaters have become my friends!

[PGee 318]

Oh my gosh, I have totally taken over my boss's oscillating heater......we didn't have heat at the office for a few days....so he let me borrow it.....he's never getting it back......I should be ashamed LOL

What is odd is that I only get cold at night. I live in fl so it's not like night time is -6 degrees. At 739 every night I start freezing!

I live in Chicago and just this week it has turned cold. I am going to have to move somewhere warmer. Since my surgery 5 months ago I have been sleeping in sweat pants and a sweat shirt (under 2 blankets, a coverlet and a big comforter). Saved a ton on air conditioning; I suspect my heating bill will go into the stratosphere!

But, since I was always the hot one in any room before, being cold is okay. Besides I won't be taking off jackets when I am hot. Arms are not something I want to display yet!

Me too!! And I live way down south in Louisiana. I have been just carrying a lightweight jacket with me...and sleeping under 2 blankets (only on my side! The hubby would kill me if I put an extra blanket on his side). I used to always be cold, then started being hot alla time, now that I'm losing weight I'm cold again.
