I've always been one to have a fan in front of me, even in the winter which may seem crazy especially since winter in the northeast where I live is killer! But now I am five weeks post op and for four weeks I have been freezing my butt off piled with blankets and have the heat cranked to 72. We are finally experiencing what so called normal people feel, and I don't like this cold thingy!! Lol

High weight:270

Start weight:252

Weight at day of surgery:232

I would always be warm. I would wear shorts year round here in Minnesota. 2 months after surgery I'm cold quite a bit and wearing long pants and jackets when I go outside. I'm waiting for my body to adjust itself so I'm not cold all the time.

I froze the first 3-4 weeks after surgery. I still tend to wear multiple layers as a precautionary thing. Better to be too warm and pull off a shirt then too cold and freeze your tuckus off. 8)

Quit complaining! I'm just beginning my journey, and I just busted a major sweat in 40* weather doing light labor, I mean light as in just taking a walk and climbing a ladder or two and I was dripping sweat. Not the sweat type from a work out, but the over weight fatty type sweat.. I cannot wait to be cold, and normal looking

Proudgrammy, I grew up in Syracuse. I still laugh here in Chicago when people start complaining about 2 inches of snow. Where did you have your surgery done? Please message me if you're not comfortable putting it "out there."

I have been wondering about this again, as my thermostat seems to have calmed down a bit. But I am not sweating nearly as much in workouts as I used to. Part of it may be that I'm still ramping up a bit, and not up to speed quite yet. Has anyone noticed that workouts are different?

Or do I just need to kick it up a notch or three?

      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.
