Anyone else cold?

Hi I was sleeved 01/05/15 and basically have had very little pain or discomfort. Feeling good for the most part. But lately I have been feeling cold and having a hard time warming up. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Me too, I've felt the cold more intensely since losing weight. The first areas I lost fat in were my arms and legs. Now the cold feels like it just cuts right through the skin on my arms. I have to wear long johns when the temp drops down into the 50's.

Pre-surgery, my problem was staying cool enough, now it's almost the opposite. The upside is, I'm going to have lower utility bills since I won't need the AC as much to survive the Texas summer!

I'm not but I sure wish I was!!!

Yep, me too! My wife is post-menopausal and prior to the surgery ole' Ms. Psycho, uh-hm...I mean my bride ;) was always hot! (Something about a poker hand...a hot flush??) Anyway, now she and I are both always cold...guess it's a byproduct of losing the vast majority of our insulation.

Oh well, hopefully it'll translate to a lower electric bill this summer! :D

Insulation and metabolism. Loss of insulation was already explained, metabolism will slow as you loose weight, as the body shuts down and tries to conserve energy. I've experienced this in the past as I would lose weight, you may also notice weight loss slowing as your body's metabolism slows. Increase your physical activity to help warm you up, and keep your metabolism revving.
