I am always cold since my sleeve on 12/7/15.

I have to keep a personal heater on me all times during work and a blanket and thick PJ's when I am home.

Try some hot hands. They might help.

I lost a lot of weight previously and my hands and feet were always freezing even in summer, but once my weight loss slowed down (after 1 year) it got better.

That's funny you mentioned this bc I was just sleeved on the 12th and I notice I am always grabbing for my throw blanket. I guess I better get use to it.

was sleeved in May 2015 and since then my hands and feet are almost always cold...Dr. said is is because of the rapid weight loss and will more than likely get better after I reach or get close to where my body thinks is right for me...so 1-2 years post op...give or take. I use warm drinks too or rub them together a lot :) Good luck! xx

Thanks for this thread. I was told that after surgery I would stay cold. I was just wondering how soon after surgery that happens.

I had my sleeve on 9/28 and I am always cold too. I was the guy who was always hot and wore short sleeves year round and slept in my boxers only. Now when I get ready for bed i feel like i am putting on more clothes so i don't feel cold all night long. My wife laughs at me cause she says I put on more clothes to go to bed than I do to go to work.

I bought a fleece and keep it at my desk at work cause there are days when I am absolutely freezing.

I was sleeved on 7/8/15 ... I have been cold ever since .. and I live in Georgia!

Seems like this winter .... though to some it's not extremely cold ... I am always freezing ...

My poor husband will lose weight by default ... He'll melt it off for as high as I have the heat all the time!

I was prepared to be "cold" but not "colllld" .... that's okay ... I'll take any side effect that comes my way ...

I get cuter clothes and feeling better with each day ... So I'm good :) :)

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
