I was always cold until my thyroid whacked out. Then I was hot, then I got it treated, and FINALLY I was comfortable. Then I was banded, and lost the blubber. Now I am back to freezing!!!

That article was interesting. My weight has been stable for two years now, and I still freeze, but I am not the best at exercising. I have found Smartwool leggings to be fantastic under my pants. The midweight is just perfect! Except if it is 85 degrees outside. But at my desk? Oh yeah! I also have leg warmers that come up to my thighs that I'll pull on if the leggings aren't enough or if they are in the laundry. But I plan on getting more Smartwool. It isn't cheap, but oh, so worth it!

They also have short and long sleeved shirts. Sheesh, I live in San Diego, not sure what I'd do if I lived where there is an actual winter!

I live in Montana, I swear I am gonna freeze to death this winter and it has been very mild here this year. I keep the heater on 75 in the house and then I also keep a space heater on and a blanket......I really hope I regulate sometime soon lol

Nikki, seriously, look into Smartwool! They have different weights, it is WONDERFUL! Expensive, but so worth it! For the first time in about 3 years, I have been warm. It's made from Merino Wool, so incredibly soft, not at all itchy against the skin. I bought the leggings from REI, you can get 10% rebate if you buy a membership. I got shirts on ebay. I sleep in them even.

I get cold easily now too, though I live in the northern territory Australia, so it's always hot here, though lately I don't seem to be so much bothered by the heat any more :D it gets up to 40d*C thats 104?? I think, some days its 42 which is 107.6. So it's good not carrying the extra layer!

So glad to know I'm not the only one who is always freezing now! Hubby can't get over the difference as I was always kicking off covers in the middle of the night. Not any longer, head to bed now with layers that I never take off!

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

    • buildabetteranna

      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
