Sweating after eating

[smc124 118]

Hello! I’m four weeks post op for gastric sleeve and have been incorporating soft Proteins. I noticed that I feel a distinct rise in temperature including sweating after eating some meals. Sometimes I’ll go from cold and shivering before I eat to sweating after in what seems like very little time. Has anyone else experienced this? Is it just a reflection of my body working hard to digest?

I get really cold after eating a little too much, my skin gets goosebumps and I feel shivery. Its the oddest feeling

I experienced this for the first time last night. I ate too much and suddenly I felt feverish and almost like I had the flu.

During my first month I'd also get sweaty & my heart rate would go up to 95-100bpm after eating. I'm not too sure why that happened, I looked it up & got a few different answers but I felt it was just my body working overtime during such a crucial time. All went back to normal eventually

Some people sweat a bit after eating Proteins, google Protein sweats.

yeah i got the sweats. still do now on occasion...im 4+ yrs post op.

the sweats were almost always accompanied with accelerated heart beat. sometimes lethargy and nausea. and more rarely, vomiting/diarrhea/"passing out"....all varying degrees of dumping for me as a result of consuming too much sugar or eating too fast.

Yes I’m learning to be very discerning of Condiments it would seem I’m also experiencing the reactive hypoglycemia reaction to even minimal sugars. Though I think this might be separately more in line with what the other poster had mentioned “the Protein sweats” though possibly related to needing to slow down as it occurred most noticeably with grilled chicken :)

Regarding heart rate what’s interesting is my resting heart beat has dropped from mid 60s to upper 40s//low 50s (doctor said not to worry), but I haven’t checked my pulse during sweats specifically I will do that.
