Topic: RE: I'm Freezing!!!
it's weird, i was also hot natured, but i've been cold since the day i had my surgery! that was before all this weight came off, it must have something to do with the actual process of losing weight rather than just the lack of insulation. it's been in the 90's outside, and the thermostat in the office is usually around 72, but i wear a jacket in the mornings and frequently turn on a little heater fan under my desk. at home i keep the thermostat around 76, but even then i still get cold sometimes.
at least my husband won't complain too much, he's coming home from the desert in a few months and it's going to feel cold here to him, so we can be cold together--at least until he readjusts, hehe.

We lost our body fat that is what kept us warm all the time or hot in nature.I'm alway cold now too.I sleep with comforter and wear sweater at work or at the movies.My sister had wls before me,when we travel together in the car I like the air condition on.She would be freezing and cover herself with a blanket I keep in the car .

Me, too. I had to put a second comforter on my bed last night. Just couldn't get warm. My body temp changed since the day of surgery. I was always hot! Hardly ever needed a jacket in the winter! I'm sure all that fat kept me insulated!

I used to be so hot natured. I would freeze my hubby out of the house because I would be burning up. For the past month or so I have been just freezing when he is hot. He works nights and sleeps durning the day and he likes it cool in the bedroom while he sleeps. I try to leave the air conditioner on where he puts it, 75. I try, most of the time I put it on 78-80 and I am still freezing. Is this because of losing 87 pounds? I would say it is. I would give anything for a sweat shirt and some jogging pants right now, lol. Brrrr, I am so cold!!!! Anyone else do this?
Hugs and God Bless

Hello Paula,
I know exactly how you feel. At one point I almost cancelled my surgery as a result of pure fear. Prior to my surgery I "what if'd myself into a frenzy". I got comfortable when I decided that I had put my fate in God's hands, did plenty of research, and got the best darn surgeon I could find. My sister -in-law gave me a card, and on the cover of that card it had a doctor operating on someone in an operating room with nurses etc. surrounding him, and like a watermark reaching over the surgeon from behind it was God guiding the sureons hands. Talking about touched by a card, "I framed it". Stay positive, think positive and positive things will happen. I will keep you in my prayers.

Hi Hope,
you have lost a lot of wieght good for you. My surgery is scheduled for next week, and I am so scared. Like you a big reason for doing this is so that i can enjoy doing things with my children without having to stop every 5 min because i'm tired. I want to be able to take them and go on rides with them at the amusment parks. I really am scared though I keep thinking that if something happens and i die then it was my own selfishness of choosing to have this surgery that will leave my children without a mother. I trust in god and hope that he's with my surgeon the day of surgery, besides praying that is about the only thing that i can do. I just wish that i could shake of this stress so that i coul'd begin focusing on the future with wls. Thanks for listening.Once again congrats on bieng so close to your goal!!!
