NDN_RN 527 Posted December 28, 2012 I used to be a bag of hot flashes. Hardly wore coats in the winter, never had to turn the thermostat past 65, while evetyone else in the house wore sweaters and blankets. Now i am chronically cold. Today I am coming down with second cold in a month(never ever got colds more than once a year, if that) here I am with a hoodie, shawl and a wool blanket, and I cant get warm. Lost about 60 pounds since begining of Sept. didnt think the cold issue would be that bad Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrsGina 101 Posted December 28, 2012 I lost 30+lbs still on pre op and I'm freezing all the time. Losing all this insulation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ProudGrammy 8,322 Posted December 28, 2012 used to be a bag of hot flashes. Now i am chronically cold-,Lost about 60 pounds NDN_RN you know that having less ski can effect your reaction to temperatures - whether hot or cold. It obviously is more severe for you i also was never cold, due to my "extra" skin - new world now - just wear a sweater, and i'm happy i'm anxious to see how i will react to my first summer at goal - always was so excessively hot - with less skin now, hopefully i will reap the benefits IMO i would rather suffer a bit with a cold than be "heavy" bundle up, hopefully you will not keep getting sick keep warm thoughts, and then cool for the summer good luck to you happy new year 1 NDN_RN reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joy0125 95 Posted December 29, 2012 I just had surgery but have already found that with what I have lost already is impacting my tolerance to cold. I was always hot, didn't wear a jacket and now I am always asking hubby if it is cold. Being cold well worth it 1 NDN_RN reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
