Yep, me too. The ladies I work with call their hot flashes "personal Summers" I have decided I have "personal Winters" My hands get so cold my touch screen mouse and phone will not register that I am touching them! Brrrr! Saw the Doc for my three month follow up, all my Vitamin levels are great and I am down 60 lbs of insulation. Guess I just have to give my body time to adjust. Lol!

I experienced this for about two or three months post op. it was crazy! I would sleep in warm pj's and a hoodie and two blankets! I was still shivering. I live in a warm climate so my family thought I was nuts.

Im 5 months out now and it seems to have subsided somewhat.

I'm not ALWAYS cold but damn do I get cold way more often - often in situations where I'm the only uncomfortable one. I love it honestly, I hated always sweating when everyone else was fine and wearing jackets is comfy and cute

Personal Summers I love it. Personal Winters sounds appropriate too.

This makes me laugh I always thought my mom was nuts (she's 2 yr post) she is always cold and said its a side effect. I am 9 weeks and haven't experienced this yet. But I can't wait bring it! Better then being a hot mess!

All the fat that was keeping you warm is being eliminated, the more fat you loose the colder you will feel, fat is a good insulator.... you get use to being cold but skinny and that is just find with me - LOL You get cold put on a sweater :) I would rather be thin - LOL

I had exactly the same experience! Must be pretty common because the PA asked me at one of my follow-up appointments if I was experiencing being cold. I didn't take the opportunity to ask her if that was common but from the responses here I'm guessing it's very common!!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
