Hi all!

Am I the only one who's freakin freezing after vsg?

You are freezing because you are loosing the body fat that kept you warm. Hopefully your surgeon explained this prior to your surgery. You will go thought alot of different changes.

Hopefully you are taking Biotin for your hair, so you don't loose alot.

All The Time! I'm always cold. I will take it though over being an elephant. :-)

Nope - happens to a lot of us.

I'm 14 months out and I am still very sensitive to the cold. Some days I cannot get warm - I'll have wool socks, fleece pants, t-shirt sweatshirt and I still can't get warm.

But I will say...IT'S TOTALLY WORTH IT! Bundle up!

If you're talking immediately after surgery, it's because they have the surgery suite and recovery room cold to deter the growth of any little bugs. They thrive in the warmth, therefore the cold temps. The others are right about after your weight loss...less body fat to keep you warm!

I am freezing due to anemia. I am now taking Iron tablets.

My surgeon told me that I will be cold all time because of how much and how quickly I have lost fat. He said that is common. I am cold all the time.

Yeah definitely cold!!!

Yes yes yes! Cold all the time! I hope that my body will regulate eventually...but I agree with others that it is a great alternative to being heavier. I have never been so thankful for a "mild" winter in Iowa!

Not sure we ever re-regulate. We had extra insulation and now we don't. Layers are my friend.

Always cold looking fwd for the summers heat

You can google this... It's hormonal and metabolic. With as little as a 10% weight change you have hormonal changes that will make you colder. It does get better they say.
