My "thermostat's" still broke!



Recommended Posts

Hoping a vet or two is lurking here, since I can't post on their page ...

I'm a year out, and have been in maintenance for about 3 months ...

I'm still cold. All. The. Time. I have the heat set in 73 and everybody else is walking around nearly naked while I'm in sweats and under blankets. STILL.

When does this regulate? Get better? Stop?? (Lol, please tell me it does).

2.5 years out and I'm still cold most of the time. Freezing actually. But, I will take it over being hot and sweaty any day!

Hi I agree I am a year out as of Dec 28, 2012 and I stay cold all the time!!! I sleep with a heating pad at night and have to keep a sweater or layers of clothes on all the time! I would love to know what others are doing that may struggle to keep warm!

Good to know! I'm 7 mos. out and I'm sooo cold! They used to call my house the meat locker, but now it's known as the sauna! Oh, how times have changed!

I am having the same problem... Surgery Dec 10, 2013... My house is 90 degrees and have 3 blankets and my husband just sweating. I was told that it is my inter core losing the heat and it should get better... now hearing from others I do know... I was not aware of a few things that is going on with me I which I knew more and made I would have done a different surgery instead on the sleeve.

good luck to all I hope we can get warned up.

2 years out and cold all the time. I wear as many layers as physically possible, just to be in the house! Going outside in the cold is torture. Balmy 90 degree days are my FAVORITE!! :lol:

Hey me too! I'm so cold unless sitting in the sun and my partner tells me that I radiate heat?? Does anyone else seem to radiate heat in bed?? Yet feel cold still?

Me too. I am cold at work most of the time. I work overnight so I thought it was the hospital not me. I can sit there with 2 shirts a jacket and a blanket from the warmer and still be cold!

I am only 5 months out, but stocked up on many many pair of wool socks for the winter in California-- haha--- you know like when it is only 50 degrees out. I've heard that if you sleep with your socks on it keeps you warm all night and I'm wondering if it would help to wear socks during the day and warm up one's body core that way.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
