Oh my gosh, I stay cold! At work, I am always wearing a sweater and have a little heater hidden under my desk. Right now, I have a fire going in the fireplace and am buried under my fuzzy purple blanket. Now, keep in mind, I live in Florida!!

I tended to be cold often prior to my surgery. It seems the only time I was hot was when a hot flash occurred or if I was outside riding my bike when it was warm. I am now six weeks post-op and cold all the time. At home I have two blankets on me and at work normally have a heater on under my desk.

Susan, your post above doesn't give me hope that this will go away.

Freezing ALL the time. Has not stopped for me one bit!

Cuddle duds. Best underwear ever. Can't be without them! Or my heated throw.

Also, it takes a bunch to get me sweating at the gym now. Before, I just walked in the door and started sweating. So weird since I'm probably better hydrated than ever!

Me, me, me! I don't think I have ever worn so many layers, day and night, lol. However, having gone from a sweating blob to a cool skinny mini, I know which one I prefer....

Oops, sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Always cold. I have literally 120 cardigan sweaters in all colors. I wear them to work everyday (even in summer;d/t air conditioning), and have my old favorites I wear at home daily. Four blankets on the bed. Just invested in cuddle duds for under my short sleeve shirts. And I wear long underwear to bed. I live in Minnesota, but since I lost weight this is year round. I freeze when it's time for a shower. It's great to have lost so much fat, but that stuff was sure insulating. Linda

Yes, Life is different but I still would rather be cold and get warm than be hot ALL time and try to cool off. It is much easier to get warm than cool off!

Yes, cuddle duds are da bomb!

Yes!! I hate being hot, and always had my air turned up or heat turned down. Today I swear I complained it was cold 100 times. It was chilly in the house but I notice I sweat less and get over heated less as soon as my pre op started.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
