Skinny people problems right?

I am never warm. Invest in a good lap blanket and some "cozy" socks. I have about 30 pairs!

Yup, I get cold ALL the time. And I mean all the time. In the morning in my home office with the temp at 72, walking outside at 60, even in the shower on previous " hot temps". Now I typically wear a pullover fuzzy coat when I am dressed and also wear nice warm coats outside. May start using a space heater at my home office and cranking the shower temp..all....the...way...up. The only things that warm me now are exercising at full cardio and sex. That's it. Sorry to be so frank, but this is. Real issue for me.

I have been cold lately to the the point that I'm using the heater. My ears, feet, hands, and nose are always cold. Before I didn't know what a heater was (jk) LOL but there was a point I couldn't stand the cold and I told my doctor we did some blood work and it came to find out that my Iron was low :-/

I was sleeved on 11/13 and have been freezing ever since. I even have an electric heated blanket and it can't get warm enough. Glad I'm not the only one.

      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.
