Anyone feeling cold?



Recommended Posts

HI Folks,

I am 3 months post op, have lost 34 pounds, and quit smoking May 5th. However, lately, if I get cold with air conditioning, I freeze and stay cold forever. What is up with that??

I have noticed the same thing. My body temp is all off. I seem more cold now then I ever have. My husband keeps it 67 in our bedroom and I have to use 2 blankets to keep warm. I have to agree w/ the person that said we have lost some of our insulation and that's great!!

MY Dr explained it to me like this. He said when we eat our body is burning calories. Well the less you eat the less your body is working. So it makes you get colder because your body is not working to digest all the food. I really believe this though. I had a fill yesterday so I am not really eating anything today. Well I have been freezing all day. So I really notice it when I am not eating as much. My husband is a lot thinner then me and I have way more insulation then him. But he is always hot and I am cold. So I dont think it has much to do with that. Just my opinion though.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      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!
