I am 2 1/2 weeks out & I am cold all the time. I wear a jacket at home & socks all the time. I have always worn shirts & shorts this time of year but find a need a jacket even when outdoors at 75*. Also is avacado allowed?

OMG, this is happening to me too! I'm a month out from RNY, and I'm cold all the time. I'd set our AC at 80 if my wife and kids wouldn't revolt.

Even on the treadmill, it takes a little bit to even work up a sweat. I guess this is normal?

Not sure about avocado - Sorry

I'm a year post of & have had this issue since the beginning. I have seen several questions concerning this issue & have seen a lot of comments that the reason for this cold feeling is the lower amount of carbs you are consuming. I think this is true because I've noticed on days where I have consumed more carbs (bad on me) I'm not as cold.

I'm only slightly colder than I used to be and I am 1 month, 5 days post-op. I started eating avocado during my pureed/soft food stage, as I got permission from my surgeon. I LOVE avocados. I use a food scale so I make sure I do 1.5oz of avocado, sprinkle some cumin, Frank's Red Hot, and some herb hummus is the rest of the .5 allowed ounces.

I love winter and usually happily get around in short sleeve shirts on 8°C/46°F winter mornings, but today it was 16°C/61°F and I was absolutely freezing.

I guess this is better than sweating like a pig in summer, though...

I have been eating avocadoes since I was on soft food about two weeks ago. I LOVE them! I sprinkle chilli pepper on it and I am going to try it with tuna in place of the mayo prob for lunch today.

I have noticed I seem to be a little colder than norm. I guess its the 25lb sweater that I threw away!

ALWAYS cold!

Good thing I live in the desert...........And I never go anywhere that I do not take a sweater.

At home on the couch watching TV - either have socks and a sweater on or wrapped up in a blanket.

But then would rather trade the 80+ pounds I have taken off for the sweater!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
