allthatjazz4u 204 Posted January 1, 2013 Do a searh for "cold" and you will see you're not alone. I constantly cold since surgery. I sleep with my central heat, a hoodie and socks every night! I'm not sure of the medical explanation but it's VERY COMMON . :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't wait till it gets to be a100 degrees in June to see if I stay any cooler than usual when it is hit enough here to boil eggs on the pavement!

MichiganChic 3,262 Posted January 2, 2013 I'm freezing, too! I haven't been this cold since the 80s when I weighed 135 pounds (for 5 minutes, lol)! I think it's related to surgery, healing, and mostly weight loss...we are burning fat for fuel. Nothing scientific there, just my thoughts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Catracks 865 Posted January 2, 2013 A year out and still cold all the time. My office is 70 degrees and too cold for me, but I have no control over it. I keep the house at 75 and my husband can barely stand it. I like it about 80. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CJsmom84 90 Posted January 2, 2013 I wear my husbands hunting socks and I bundle up with long pants and two shirts and a blanket lol I've been our heater and now I find myself snuggling up to him to hit him up for some heat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fiddleman 4,376 Posted January 2, 2013 Oh yeah, cold all the time since about 2 months out. I am now at 6 months out and almost reaching goal. I bought a space heater in my home office which helps me warm up in the morning hours. I m also pretty verbal to others when I get cold in order to have them help keep the environment warm (home, car, etc). I also wear gloves every where. That helps lot because it is my hands that turn to ice first. Next my feet. Layering up at home and when out really helps. Don't forget that winter coat or wear a sweater. Finally, drinking warm drinks helps. I like to drink coffee and hot apple cider to warm up. I hope some of these tips will help you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mgsmith 35 Posted January 2, 2013 Yes me too, it was brought to my attention just the other day. I am the one that never wears a coat during the winter months , but now I say bundled up all the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Ranger 12 Posted January 2, 2013 Yep, I'm always cold since the surgery too. My hand most of all. I've been trying to think up a way to keep my hands warmer when I'm working. Too bad I don't have some kind of heater that goes over my mouse and keyboard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ILoveMaui 3 Posted January 2, 2013 My husband just threatened to buy me an electric blanket to use when I am watching tv so I don't roast out the whole house. 3 weeks out and have been cold since surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
