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

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

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.

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!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
