I’ve pumped the heating up to a balmy 20c(68F) in the house but I also need to wear:

I am not willing to share what the current temperature setting is within my house. I am embarrassed to say it is higher than 68F. 😢

Trust me I would have it higher if it wasn’t for my partner putting a ban on it being any higher due to the crazy energy prices. 🙄🤭

I'm constantly chilled, even in Houston. I sleep with a head cap on, because my head gets cold !!!!

I have always been a freezing cold person but when I got to my highest weight of 215.8lb I was always feeling hot, I was sweating loads and felt like I was always on fire.

I am now down to about 190lb and I feel okay with a regulated temperature. I think as my weight decreases, this will change.

I still get cold all the time...I don't think I am ever going to like it. 😕

I wear Under Armour almost all the time now under my clothes. It works well and now that my clothes are looser, there's plenty of room for them.

      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.
