Is it just me...I'm 3 weeks post-op?

No - lots of us go through this... i have been told after a year it shouldn't be as bad... but i am only 4 1/2 months out so once i get to a year i will let you know... I had my surgery in the WINTER... was the coldest winter EVER... i walked around with 2 pairs of socks, 2 pairs of sweat pants & 3 shirts... with a blanket wrapped around me (IN MY HOUSE) LOL just know you are not alone!! thankfully summer is around the corner for you

I start my 8th week tomorrow and I'm always freezing. I didn't even own a coat prior to wls and now I don't go anywhere without one of my husbands coats lol.

I am 10 weeks out and have been freezing. Now that the weather is nicer, I'm starting to shed the hoodies! I have been super tired. I have been taking a nap every day! Hope this changes soon!

Could it be that I'm not eating enough to fuel my body? My son thinks so...

[Becky78 7]

Lol my daughter says it's cause all the meat is falling off my bones. I'm in California and even on our 80 degree days I've been in a hoodie for most of the day. Hope this part goes away.

I don't think so. If I remember right, its a side effect to losing weight and possibly ketosis. I may be wrong about the ketosis thing tho, so...

I thought it was just me being Anemic. I find I have to have a blanket at all times. And now I'm having abnormal periods. I'm 12 weeks post op.

I was only eating about 500-600 calories a day. My NUT and PT made me stop the gym. They said I had to be eating 800-1000 before I could go back. I just started back last week and I am not as tired and not as cold.

[ladycynjj 31]

Thanks everyone...I love having a family of friends to turn to...I just turn my electric blanket back up!!!

I'm five weeks post-op and have issues with my hands being cold a lot. I've always been on the warm side, but lately I have been feeling a bit colder than usual. I find that the more I move about and get the blood pumping, the warmer I stay. I've had several people who have gone through the surgery tell me that feeling cold is very common.

I am 6 weeks tomorrow and the bouts of freezing wax and wane. I'm cold when I'm losing quickly. I'm eating 600-800 calories a day. But I also was freezing when I was on Jenny Craig eating 1200 a day. Anytime I am losing, I'm cold.
