Freezing as I sit with a fleece blanket and space heater blowing on me. Brrr.

Very glad to know I'm not the only one. Thank you all for your replies! I work for an AC Company and the joke in the office is I've lost my R value (insulation). lol!

Truck8595 - I've also found I don't sweat anywhere near as much as I used to. I actually LIKE getting into the car after it's been baking in the sun all day.

Cold for first time in my life! I was always the hot fat chick so it's all new to me. Everyone I know thinks it's weird but just another change that comes with this surgery. I will take a little cold :)

I had to get daily injections to thin my blood for one month after surgery. Was having hot flashes and night sweats. Not any more! I used to freeze the rest of family. Not anymore! Glad I'm not the only one.

CAN NOT WAIT to be cold. And not sweaty and fat. :-) it's the worst and pit spots. I work in surgery and feel sweaty often. Will totally enjoy being cold :-)))))) good side effect for this chub that is always hot. Yay! Surgery date early may.

I just read on pintrist that putting pantiliner on your shirt where your pits are will prevent pit stains. I remember as a sweaty fat girl leaving a sweaty butt mark on the metal chairs in school. Really could have used pintrist then. God I hate being fat.

When I first saw this thread a week or two ago, I thought you all must be exaggerating....it's winter, after all. Well, ho hum, I now keep the heat 3* higher than I used to while layering sweat pants, sweatshirts, thick socks and blankets! And, I'm 231, so certainly not thin. I wonder if this is just part if the losing phase or if it lasts. Stay warm, everyone! ;)

Wow, I can hardly believe I am posting about being cold. I am only 6 days post op and I am mostly cold. I am having some problems with hot flashes but at 56 I think it might take me a bit to recover from surgery. I usually wore only a light jacket all winter. Now I have a heavy sweater on all the time.
