Unnaturally cold all the time



Recommended Posts

I am always cold and my hubby is just the opposite. He has always sweated too easy. I think I was just about normal as far as temp before surgery. We are always turning the air off or on when the other isn't looking.

My hands, feet, legs and arms stay freezing cold. But I hate wearing slippers and socks around the house. I typicaly stay wrapped up in a blanket if watching TV. I am at work right now and have on a jacket because I am freezing. Maybe it's because we have lost insulation (as in fat)??

My body is finally beginning to regulate it self. It only took 4 months after my surgery for that to happen!

:rolleyes:I love being cold. I was always the first one to sweat and be hot before anyone else. I used to dread going into stores because I would sweat so much that my hair would be drenched in a matter of minutes. Now I keep my house set at 76 to 78, I freeze at work and I hardly ever sweat (I live in Arizona) and I love it.

I'm the same way and I was never like that before the surgery. I've only lost 44 pounds and I'm already like that. I don't understand it. How could just 44 pounds make that much of a difference in temp regulation?

Holistic doctor said take extra Omega 3 oil (fish oil) and that should help after a while. Good for heart and hair also. Can also get it in liquid form at health food store.

I'm so happy to have stumbled onto this thread! I've always been very hot natured. I thought I was having some kind of post op infection even though I have no temperature.

Now I can just enjoy the energy savings from turning down my AC!:(

Obviously there will be a difference in our tolerance to cold once we lose weight, but I'd still advise you to get your thyroid checked and make sure you're not anemic...

Other than that, just enjoy the lack of sweat this summer:thumbup:

On the positive side, now I'm comfortable in hot weather. Last week I was cutting the grass when it was 92 degrees, and I was sweating, but comfortable. It's nice not having all of that extra insulation.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
