Holy cow, I'd heard about the feeling cold thing but I never anticipated it being this bad! It's like my wife and I have switched places. We were always battling over the thermostat in the house and car and it was because she would always sweat me out and I would freeze her out. Her and my kids think this is hilarious watching me cover up in a blanket while watching tv and whatnot. I was always sweating before and now I'm cold all the time and they are complaining of the heat if I turn it up too much. Crazy!

A friend of mine had the full Gastric Bypass 5 Years ago and he is always ice cold . So in guessing this is permanent.

I wish mine was that high. I had mine on December 4th and have only lost 21# in that time. However, in the last 6 weeks I've lost 45#

How much have you lost since surgery? As your surgery was only 2 days before mine.

I am constantly cold as well. Not only are you dropping weight, but your caloric intake isn't really high either. Eating can warm you up (definitely upon the foods you're eating.)

The only thing that I am dealing with right now is fatigue. I am getting between 600-700 calories a day (most of the time.) I'll have a day that I feel really good and energetic - I'll spend a good chunk of the day cleaning or catching up on household stuff - and then the next day I'm out for the count. Today I am REALLY tired. I am hoping that I will see an increase in energy over the next couple of weeks.

The coldness is definitely extreme I also was always warm and now im literally walking around in pjs and a duvet as much as possible. Kind of delighted about it though :)

I keep forgetting to eat these days I get like a craving for food once a day and after a few bites its gone eating is becoming a chore, this is the strangest feeling ever. Its great cause I find i don't want crap anymore. Proving tough to get my Protein in though as I just don't wanna eat anymore.

Will need to find a happy medium. Todays end of week 5 from surgery well and truly back on normal diet now. Trying out new recipes all the time everything is focused around protein carbs and fats are an afterthought. How is everyone else doing?

I am trying to get as much protein in as I can! I am getting the min. amount set by my team (60g), but anything more than that is a challenge right now.

I had my surgery 12/10/2018. I'm new to the forum thing. I had to visit the doctor 6 consecutive months for weigh-ins and to turn my food diary. Does anyone know of a good Protein Powder? Also is anyone else having pain in your lower abdomen around the belly button and also under your ribs in upper abdomen?

      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.
