Did you sweat less after surgery?

[Nikkinee 94]

Hi all

**Random question ahead**

After surgery did you notice you sweated less? And not just because you were getting smaller?

I'm a sweater. I sweat in winter, I sweat standing still doing nothing, I sweat thinking about sweating & I sweat even when I'm at my lightest weight so I can't only attribute it to being obese. (& no I don't have hyperhidrosis).

I know someone who just stopped sweating after surgery and I'm desperately hoping this will happen to me too.

Thanks

I don't sweat anymore. In fact it's like the whole temperature of my body changed. I loved winter because I was always so hot ALL the time, now I'm the complete opposite. I freeze all the time. At least now I can add clothes to warm up some ☺ and it's been 1 year 5 months since my surgery.

@@Nikkinee I'm with you, I can't wait till I'm no longer a sweaty-betty. I am only 7 weeks out and definitely haven't hit the being-cold-all-the-time stage. Bring it on!

I get colder now that I'm smaller. I workout and sweat like I never have before in my life...I still sweat.

I am colder most of the time and do not go out without a long sleeved jacket. I am four years post surgery and have been this way since about four months.

I sweat far less now than I did before surgery. I can't remember how long after surgery it took the sweating to decrease, though, because I had surgery in the winter. I'm down 111 pounds.

Yep no sweating at all- not carrying the excess baggage

Looking forward to being cold all the time! :-)

Yes, definitely much less sweating. Even went to Orlando in July and although I did break a sweat a couple of times, I wasn't nearly the swamp monster I had been pre-WLS.

This is music to my ears. I can't tell you how excited this makes me.

This thread makes me so happy. One of the things I hate most about being overweight is the constant sweating. Summer, Winter, Fall and Spring ... all sweaty, all the time. I'm almost always hot. I don't remember this being an issue when I was younger and thinner. So, I'm fairly certain it's because of (or at least attributed to) by my weight!

Yep, I'm cold all the time now and never leave the house without my hoodie.. I wear long sleeves in 80 degree weather . It's crazy !

Oh man, I cannot WAIT for this! Still pre-op, but this is my most anticipated NSV (besides getting healthy, of course). I freeze my kids out in the car- the air conditioner is on full blast at all times. (they each have blankets beside them in case they get too cold).
