oh yes, I had the same problem and I throw up everytime I started freezing and shaking. My doctor told me to take some acid blockers and it helped.

I'm cold too, but I think I just have to get my Iron supplements in me better. I'm having a hard time with Vitamins right now. Maybe Iron for you too?

I was freezing after my surgery on Dec 11, 2012. It lasted about 2 months and then seemed to go away. It has to do with the changes that your body is going through. I just wore lots of sweatshirts and warm socks. Always sat around watching tv with a blanket on also.

Oh I hope I will be freezing. I am having hot flashes now and let me tell you, I would rather put on a hoodie and try and strip down at work:-)

Its very different for me to say the least. I work as a pharmacy tech at a hospital and I never wear a lab coat over my scrubs because Im always hot, but I have worn one all evening and everyone has noticed. My hands, nose, and feet are like ice and i cant seem to warm them up no matter what. I always thought that I would rather be cold than hot but now Im not so sure.

That was me forever at work. I was always the one that was hot - had 3 fans on my desk - everyone else was wearing sweaters. Guess what I bought to take to work with me the other day?? Yep my very own sweater.

I have turned my air in my house up to 78 (used to be on 72). I'm not freezing, but my temperature tolerance is definitely different. :P

Not Iron deficient here.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
