You may have become anemic. Are you taking your Iron supplements?

I agree with K_anne and NewShauna. Could be a host of different things from thyroid issues to Vitamin deficiency. I would follow up with my doctor about it. I don't know how your blood work is, but 3 months is plenty of time to develop issues.

This happened to me too. My Doc. said it was becuase of the lower calorie intake, my body is using my calories for life functions and stops using them for things like keeping the body warm. Once I upped my calories by about 100-200, it went away for me. This is just what happen to me, you should talk to your doctor about it.

If I'm honest. I'm not the best at taking Vitamins. But I did do bloods at 9 weeks out and things were normal. Then again I wasn't cold then.

I had a massive weight drop this morning also with this extra coldness. I also have not been getting as much cals the last week so this is all very interesting info.

I dont think I've had my thyroid checked I don't know anything about thyroid lol.

Thanks everyone I didn't even think something could be wrong. This week is the first week I've reached Water goals everyday ha.

I think it IS calorie or food related on SOME level. Im still cold all the time but when i eat more i am less cold. But i notice i get colder when I'm doing more low carb also. I just go with it. Enjoying it until before it stops lol. I was always a sweat bucket before so this is a welcome change lol.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
