Last winter I was getting ready for my April surgery...I remember everyone talking about how cold they were...I didn't really believe you...until Now!

First chilly days and I am SO cold! Wearing fleece, drinking hot tea, took a hot shower and it's only 45 degrees out!

Who knew 80 pounds provided so much insulation!

I am going to have surgery in the middle of a Minnesota winter. Last year we had temps 20 below zero for days in a row. I know my fat insulates me....I guess some of the new clothes I will have to buy are more sweaters!

I regularly wear leggings, socks, a tank and a long sleeved T to bed. I sleep under a sheet, blanket and a down comforter, too. I have the heat on in the car all the time and I live in southern VA. It's crazy.

WOW, I live in Northern Virginia and I wear the lightest nightie. It's going to take some getting used to after I lose my insulation. Another funny one, I have heard is, people realize they no longer float on pools and promptly sink in the Water.

I sink. I freeze. I can no longer move heavy objects. It's weird.

I remember fighting with my husband about the house being too hot and wanting the air on. Now I am the one who is freezing! All.Of.The.Time. LOL

Ill take that over the extra 56 pounds I was carrying. I guess when I lose the rest (80) more to go Ill be cold all of the time!

Uh oh! I am really in trouble! It started snowing today and it won't be long before we don't see the thermometer go above zero for a long time. I live an hour south of Lake Superior and I need all of the insulation I can get. I guess I better start stocking up on fleece lined leggings and thermals!

At least you'll be rocking that look in the new sweaters, socks and sweats.

This is so the topic in our house right now too. I am looking for a new car and said not only do I need heated seats but a heated steering well...I am freezing all of the time. Wore my winter down filled jacket at my desk at work today (inside). :)

I'll take freezing over keeping the weight on!

You know, "The Christmas Sweater" I could never wear one. I would boil to death in one. Trust me it's hard to find a party outfit for the holiday season in size 20W in a lightweight fabric. I probably lose 10 pounds every season looking for one. Perhaps I'll get to wear a sweater someday.

You made me chuckle out loud!

I keep my car seat heater on all the time now also. Tis the season.

Two years out, and I'm still freezing. Kept the air set at a much higher temp than ever during the summer. I have had the heat on for a while. I am always wearing a robe over my clothes in the house to stay warmer. I keep the heated car seat on. I'm dreading winter again, but it's about a billion times better than being fat and/or hot!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
