Are you hot all the time?



Recommended Posts

I never complain in the winter and am always so miserable and hot all summer long. When you lose dramatic amounts of weight, does this change? I hate to be the sweaty fat chick! Is it as simple as having more or less padding/insulation or is there more at play?

I am cold all the time now and don't have the sweating problem at all.

I'm sweating most of the time but I heard that it will eventually go away.

I was a hotbox for years. Now I'm usually on the cool side. Even in hot weather, my "hot" is alot less hot than it used to be. Something for you to look forward to! :rolleyes:

I am cold all the time now. I live in Houston, TX also. My family hates it. We fight over the a/c settings... :rolleyes:What a difference losing some "insulation" makes on our body temperatures. (at least for me anyway)

I found I had a time where I was freezing constantly, it lasted about six months. Then I adjusted.

I definitely feel the cold a lot more now, i need to wear more clothes. I enjoy summer so much, and I would never have thought I was hotter than the average person before.

I live in central texas. In winter, I could sit outside with just a long sleeve shirt in the cold and never feel it. People thought I was crazy. In the summer I sweat my butty off. Since I've lost 40 lbs., so far i'm not as hot natured. I like it. I also have more energy to do things.

I am very seldom extremely hot/sweaty anymore. This past weekend we attended the Bayou Country Superfest in Tiger Stadium (outside). It was 92, and humid like it ALWAYS is in southern Louisiana. I was hot, but not nearly as sweaty as my 130 lb 18 year old daughter. 2 years ago, I probably wouldn't even have gone to the concert. The heat would have been unbearable. I also now complain about being cold at night when I used to sweat. :confused:

This is all great news for my sweaty self! Something indeed to look forward to.

I've lost 60 lbs already but I'll be patient. Tomorrow's supposed to be 86. Sigh.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
