Yes its winter & I live in Ohio.... But I'm

FREEZING. I worked so hard to get the weight off and now I'm cold. My insulation is gone!!! I wear a tank top, along sleeve turtleneck, a long sleeve t-shirt and a sweatshirt. Lol four layers to work. Plus my coat, head band, hat, gloves. I feel like that kid from the Christmas story who's all bundled up to go outside and play in the snow and can't move lol. I wear sweats around the house and have to wrap up in a blanket. sometimes I have to go in and take a HOT shower just to warm my body up. I also go to bed now with my sweat pants and sweat shirt lol real sexy right? Not complaining..... happy that I'm skinny.... BUT I AM FREEEEEEZZZZZZING LOL. I think I need to move to a tropical island!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not remotely thin yet, but I'm freezing, too. I've been taking three hot Water bottles to be every night.

Yep...Three. One for me feets, and one under each armpit. LOL.

I cannot get warm and it's super annoying. Its so cold here and it's just going to get colder. I have to wear gloves and a blanket at my desk at work and I wear a sweater, tank top, pants, boots daily.

Hahaha! So I've been cold since summer when I really started losing! I now permanently wear a long hoody fleece robe over anything I wear--daily. Every. Damn. Day.

Mr. F. can't look at me now without saying, "Help me Obiwankenobe. Help me Obiwankenobe..."

LOL. I usually reply, "What do you want now Princess Leia?" (yeah.) Good times!

I live in Florida and for years have been making fun of these locals who break out their winter coats the moment it gets below 70. Well the lows have been in the high 40s this week and I find I am absolutely freezing. I'm using the heating in my house for the first time in over 5 years.

I have conversely noticed that I can set the AC much higher than the meat locker temperature I kept it at before surgery. Good with the bad I guess.

I usually have a hoodie on in the house while working and my electric blankie has been on 19 all week. It’s been a bit chilly here in Seattle this past week. I also have fingerless gloves and a blankie at my desk!

I'm 4 years out and still freezing. living in the mountains in Idaho where we have snow from September-June sure doesn't help. I wear long underwear 9 months out of the year. I've worn shorts about 12 times in the last 4 years and half of those were when I was visiting my parents in Arizona. I bought a truck based solely on the fact it had heated seats and steering wheel. The best Christmas present I've ever received was a 20 pack of LL Bean Wicked Good hand and toe warmers. My waterbed is set to 95 degrees, so really the only time I'm ever warm is when I'm in bed.

Dayum! And I agree. Mr. F. has heated seats in his car. I keep a blankie in the car and wrap up with it and turn on the butt warmer! Am rushing to go look at the LL Bean online store! Thanks hon!!!

@1badassbiggurl Oh, it's a thing, baby!!! :D ((hugs cutie))

      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
