Hi- I am 9 weeks out and down 55 pounds. Every once in a while I get the uncontrollable chills at night when I lay in bed. Does this happen to anyone?

I am still colder even at almost three years out. Try wearing more clothes to bed and getting an electric blanket. The newer ones have sep. controls so you won't cook your partner.

I heat up my bed for 20 minutes before lying down now, or the shock is too much to bear! I also sleep under a down comforter, which would kill most husbands, but fortunately my guy weighs 140 pounds and grew up in the Caribbean. Yes me!

So you are in great company!!

Yes! I have this regularly. I now sleep in pants and long sleeves with socks. I also have a heating pad in my bed at my feet. That helps me stay warm.

I noticed that since surgery I feel cold almost all the time. I'm 7.5 weeks out.

Yes I'm six weeks post op and still do this. My doc explained to me that it's a combination to a side effect of anesthesia and a metabolic issue from the rapid weight loss. So it's kinda a double whammy. Mine got better for a few nights and I thought it was gone but happened again last night. It's not a very fun thing to deal with. First of all it's a bit frightening to me to wake up so uncontrollably cold to the point of severe shakes and it breaks my sleep pattern so I end up tired.
