For those who are post surgery status, do you notice that you are colder since getting closer to your goal weight?

After complaining of being hot year around, even inside in the AC, my dietitian says once I lose weight I will need to carry a sweater with me.

I hope this is a fact! I'm so tired of being hot!

Yes, I find myself colder at certain parts of the day but especially at night.

Absolutely true for me!

I'm praying for this effect as well. I am constantly overheated. I'd love to need a sweater everywhere.

I was cold all the time for the first 6 months or so.

Now I am probably pretty normal. I don't get warm as fast as I used to, and I am more susceptible to being cold, but I am not freezing all the time like I was when I was dropping weight really fast.

Im 8 yrs out and im still freezing cold. I even wear socks to bed. And summer time i love but after having heat index here of 113..i was still cold.

Yup always cold.. Husband thinks I'm nuts for wearing a sweatshirt in July.

My husband says it is because we lose all of our insulation.

I'm not even close to my goal weight and I have already noticed a difference. I've lost about thirty pounds and find I get cold quicker. I have always been hot natured and once heated it takes me forever to get cool but it's better now

Thanks for the feedback. It looks as though I will be throwing a sweater in the backseat. YAHHHOOOO!!!

We talked about this in my support group and was told its from loosing the weight. Not as insolated as before.

At first I think that comes from some mild hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), and after I lost a good deal of weight I also feel (thankfully) cooler, and now I think it's because my body doesn't have as much insulating fat on it. Much easier in summertime now!

So yes ... I am freeeezing most all of the time ... But we're saving on our AC bill !

Went to the movies over the weekend ... ( Live in GA ) ... it's like 98% humidity and 97 degrees outside ... I'm wearing a jacket inside the theater .... ( jeans and a long sleeve shirt too )

People next to me are in shorts and tank tops looking at me like I just rolled out from under an igloo!

I'm just amazed at how my body temp has changed ... before I would be literally dripping sweat all the time ... now I'm sitting ( right now as a matter of fact ) with my desktop heater on ...

at home I'm in a sweatshirt and sweatpants ... and sometimes even have the hood up AND a blanket covering me !

It's strange strange ...

But hey ... if this is a side effect of losing weight and becoming healthier and feeling better and being able to do more things ...

I'M IN !!!!!!!!
