Cold

[NDN_RN 527]

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

I lost 30+lbs still on pre op and I'm freezing all the time. Losing all this insulation.

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

I am cold all the time since my surgery. Oh well...another thing to get used to with the sleeve! I love it. Hope you feel better soon. Good luck!

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

Turns out I was working on 102.6 fever. Ugh. Still feel cold when i am not sick. Small price to pay!

[Joy0125 95]

Ugh that is not good. Rest up and take care!

Freezing all the time too - lots of blankets, long sleeve pjs and socks. Boy what a difference from before when I was always hot!!

Hope you feel better soon!!
