Does anyone know why we dont sweat anymore? or it takes a long time to begin to sweat when working out ?

I don't sweat when I do cardio I just get red.

Were you a sweater to begin with? It's a snow storm where I live and could sweat before surgery standing outside. Now I am not sure if I will or not. I'm only a week post op. Hoping I slow down the sweat train a little

Weird me too. I thought it was just me. I only come out with a big red face. No sweat. I thought maybe I'm not working out hard enough.

I used to sweat easily..like especially during sex..lol gross I know...but not anymore...

No insulation now like there used to be..doing things more easily now with less weight..........Now that is normal!!!!

I guess I'll ask my surgeon. It's probably metabolic.

[abarta83 118]

I'm usually cold now ...which is funny because I used to fuss at my husband for touching the thermostat and making me hot..now I'm always making him get up to turn up the heat cuz I'm freezing!

When I don't sweat, I know I am dehydrated.

[donaboss 131]

Omg I was thinking the same thing.. I worked out and not one sweat.. If I did the same workout before surgery I would look like I took a shower from sweat.. And I don't think it's the less weight because I only lost 19lbs since surgery. And no I am not complaining because I am loving it

Maybe we have turned down our metabolisms so we don't get as hot. DH says it is no longer like sleeping with a polar bear.

I've been very warm blooded my entire life, even when I was skinny and young I could break into a sweat outside in the cold:) That said, I do sweat a little bit during my morning walk even though it's in the 30s.

I seem to be a little bit "colder" than I was pre-op, but no major swing to freezing like some folks do. I have set the thermostat up a couple degrees though and I seem to go through cold flashes, but nothing permanent.

I am the opposite. Didn't sweat before and now I do. My trainer said it means I am becoming more vascular.

I no longer sweat by just existing. The more weight I lose, the more intensely I work out and I definitely sweat buckets on a hard workout when I am hydrated. It feels great!
