Are you COLD?

Usually i am "the hot one" and i do not mean looks -wise!! After my surgery 12/10/13, I have been FREEZING! I am typing this w/ gloves on! My surgeon said this was normal. Anyone else? Also, after many nights of going to bed w/ flannels, a hat and gloves, six blankets ( such a gorgeous site when you add in my C-Pap), my sister told me about something that has made me soooo happy! I am now the proud owner of a heated mattress pad! OMGAWD - what a difference! Run to the store now and get one if you too are cold!

I was also sleeved on 12/10 and am freezing too. I have the heat cranked up and wear layers of wool and a hat, and I'm still cold. I was always the one wearing shorts in the winter ...

Always freezing too. Lol

I am always cold too! I had surgery on 12/9 and I kept thinking I was having fever at first b/c I am like you guys, I used to break out a sweat just sitting there! I can't decide if I like being cold better or not???

Not me. It was in the 30s last night and I slept with the window open a bit, a sleeveless nightgown, and one blanket.

I'm hoping to be cold!! I'm so tired of being miserably hot all the time and freezing everyone else!! Bring it ON!!

sleeved 12/19...cold all the time..... I am normaly very hot natured so if this contimues in the summer (I am in Texas) then I will love it.

I am 6 months out and cold all the time.

not freezing really, but I have always been hot, and lately I find myself cold a lot since having surgery, its weird, but its much better then being hot all the time was as far as I am concerned :)

Its the lack of carbs.

I have a heated bed blanket. I sit on it, I sleep on it.

I would live in it if I could! :blink:

I live up in Minnesota, so I should be cold this time of year but it's been extreme since losing started.

I had to go out and buy long underware and wool socks.

I now just dress every morning with my cuddle dub long underware on under my jeans, wool socks on, a tshirt, sweatshirt over tshirt and then heavy wool jacket.

I'm still usually cold even then.

Evenings when the family is eating something I can't have, I escape to a hot bath. That's the only thing that warms me up all the way.

I'm cold all the time to. I have lost about 140 pounds since I started my weight loss journey. 88 since surgery. I am so skinny now compaired to when I started and I cant believe how good I feel but I really am cold most of the time. I hope it gets better but maybe I will more heat tolerant this summer right?

Happy new year everyone, be safe and happy.

I am just over 1 1/2 years out and I am always freezing. I laugh and say I lost all of my insulation. I usually start the day wearing layers of clothing and run a space heater at my feet. It's really hard for me to keep warm. I live in Texas where it's usually hot. I used to sleep with a small fan on me. Not anymore the more blankets I have the better.

My friend who had gastric bypass years ago complains she's always cold. Make that 2 of us now. As a vet tech working in sub zero temps, long underwear and layers is nothing new for me at work. But now at home I'm Always covered with a blanket on the couch and I've got something even better than a heated mattress pad.... A waterbed turned up to 95 with two blankets and a 100 degree English Pointer on each side!

You lucky dogs! I wish I was cold all the time. I'm sposed to be - I have hypothryroidism. I just moved to So Ca 2 mths ago (from Or) and it's averages the last month have been 75-80. I sleep with the window open too (88 yr old FIL keeps the thermostat at 83) and shorts.

Wish I was cold....
