Hmm...I'm just the opposite. I used to be cold all winter (even at my highest weight). Now, I've lost nearly 70 lbs and feel just fine this winter--neither too hot nor too cold. I figured that my metabolism is better now (because of the exercise and the healthier diet). I'm wondering now after reading how "hotties" have turned into "freezer pops" just what is the variable? Hmm...

I'm with you! I freeze all the time, I used to wear short sleeved tshirt gowns to sleep in all year round, now I can't stand it, I have to wear flannel pj's, a robe, socks and shoes in the house. BRRRRR I freeze too death. It was 15 degrees here yesterday and I can't get warm! Right now I have on sweat pants, tshirt, sweatshirt 2 pair of socks and shoes. I sleep under a sheet, 2 blankets and 2 heavy quilts--I'm buying an electric blanket tomorrow! The doctor said some of mine is my blood pressure now. It used to be high and now i'm luck if it's 80/50 or usually even lower. We're playing musical meds right now to try to get it situated! My poor husband is burning up! I had the heat on 75 last night LOL Then when he gets in the bed and I put my icy feet on him he always screams! HEHEHEHE! Maybe it'll be better later on!

Thank god its not just me!!!! I am always so cold! And I live in humid New Orleans for goodness sake.

I have been such a tightwade about buying new clothes since losing weight. I am not ashamed to admit just last week I brought myself fleece footed jammies, like what kids wear. Can't wait for them to get here!!!

Ebay has plus sized ones, for men and women!! I'm pretty sure hubby is tired of me freezing him out with my feet, he'll appreciate this! lol

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
