I am 2 1/2 weeks out & I am cold all the time. I wear a jacket at home & socks all the time. I have always worn shirts & shorts this time of year but find a need a jacket even when outdoors at 75*. Also is avacado allowed?

OMG, this is happening to me too! I'm a month out from RNY, and I'm cold all the time. I'd set our AC at 80 if my wife and kids wouldn't revolt.

Even on the treadmill, it takes a little bit to even work up a sweat. I guess this is normal?

Not sure about avocado - Sorry

I'm a year post of & have had this issue since the beginning. I have seen several questions concerning this issue & have seen a lot of comments that the reason for this cold feeling is the lower amount of carbs you are consuming. I think this is true because I've noticed on days where I have consumed more carbs (bad on me) I'm not as cold.

I'm only slightly colder than I used to be and I am 1 month, 5 days post-op. I started eating avocado during my pureed/soft food stage, as I got permission from my surgeon. I LOVE avocados. I use a food scale so I make sure I do 1.5oz of avocado, sprinkle some cumin, Frank's Red Hot, and some herb hummus is the rest of the .5 allowed ounces.

I love winter and usually happily get around in short sleeve shirts on 8°C/46°F winter mornings, but today it was 16°C/61°F and I was absolutely freezing.

I guess this is better than sweating like a pig in summer, though...

I have been eating avocadoes since I was on soft food about two weeks ago. I LOVE them! I sprinkle chilli pepper on it and I am going to try it with tuna in place of the mayo prob for lunch today.

I have noticed I seem to be a little colder than norm. I guess its the 25lb sweater that I threw away!

ALWAYS cold!

Good thing I live in the desert...........And I never go anywhere that I do not take a sweater.

At home on the couch watching TV - either have socks and a sweater on or wrapped up in a blanket.

But then would rather trade the 80+ pounds I have taken off for the sweater!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
