Ok this is a bad topic title but not sure how else to say it. There are things I hate about being skinny that I never thought of before.

The biggest thing is I am always cold. Always. 100 degrees outside and I'm chilly. Went to Cabo last month and as soon as I got out of the airport I jumped into the sun. Everyone else was hiding in the shade to stay cool. I was the only one in the sun. I now wear a jacket during work and two lab coats on top.

Another is my loss of counter weight. I used to be able to push or pull any thing. Now I'm just mortal strength. . No more just put your weight behind it.

I knew about all the other things. Smaller portion sizes. Water only. No sugar. No this. No that. I was prepared for those things. I was not about these two.

Are their others who have similar feeling bugs about stuff you had no idea would happen and you just hate it?

And butt pain. The little tail bone pain is killing me. No car seat is comfy anymore. No seats at work. They all are killing my ass.

Haha. I was just saying to my husband how uncomfortable the park bench that I sat on at lunch was and I was in a jacket and cold in 86 degrees!

For those who have butt pain, a gel cushion will help. Pick them up at Bed Bath and Beyond.

In winter when it gets really cold and I venture off to shovel snow, I now us hand warmers in my gloves. What a great invention.

I would always drive with the window open even when it got down in the 40's. This always drove everyone else in the car crazy. I now feel the cold. My wife says it is nature's revenge. "What comes around, goes around!"

At almost 2 years out, I am still cold all the time. But, I'll take it ...

It's so great being a normal weight.

I found it extremely hard to FLOAT in the pool!!!

Yes floating becomes a challenge also. My kids can easily sink me now.

And even though I have these things that I find annoying I would rather be skinny and enjoying life with these small things rather than have the problems associated with being larger.

AMEN!!

lol i love this! i still have a while to go, and paradoxically my butt has gotten bigger yet with my tailbone it hurts more to sit. and lying on my side means knee bone rub. just bones, man. all the bones.

except the collar bones. those are just fantastic

Oh, great. I'm just 7 weeks post-op, and I've noticed that I've been feeling freakishly cold lately. Somebody told me that as I lose more weight, I'll be more sensitive to it.

While I'm sure I'd rather lose the weight, being able to walk around in a short sleeve shirt and shorts in 32 degree weather may be something I truly miss. Ha ha!

Yes am with you about being cold. I live in Las Vegas and it gets hot!! But when I am somewhere with the AC on I get super cold! I have to take a sweater when I go to school now because I be freezing lol

I am not "technically" skinny yet, but already cold ALL the time!

I'm looking forward to feeling cold. I'm hot (and sweating) ALL the time. I've seen several doctors about it because it is so extreme. I'm in Austin, mostly it is hot here. I can't wait for winter. It's the only time I'm comfortable! Soon I will be comfortable all the time? A jacket is easy. Yay!

Just got back from the lake. Everyone else was enjoying the 78 degree water temp. I just could not do it. Just shivered the whole time. I got back to the camp and started the biggest dang bonfire you ever did see just to get dry and warm.

I found a new one today....I was mowing the lawn and twice, I hit a bump and enough of my body weight come off the seat to turn the blades off....grrr!

Too funny. I am nine weeks out. Yes, I am cooler than I was and my rear hurts more often... On the up side, I have lost 40 pounds and am down a size and a half in shirts....almost a full size in pants. I'm off the stupid CPAP, off the recent meds... Yay!
