Cold

Is anyone else having problems with being cold all the time? The other night I had four blankets on me and was still shivering. Don't know if this is from the weightloss or if I am coming down with something.

LOL that is ME!!! I never got cold before and now I am cold all the time. My wife loves it because I actually turn the heat on now. I dont use 4 blankets, but have used three before. I have talked with other people in my WLS support group and they said to get use to it. For the first time since I was in grade school I am actually looking forward to summer!

I recently bought an electric blanket!! Before I would have laughed at the thought of using one!! I was sooooo hot all of the time!!! But now I need it!!! I guess it's just one of those things that go along with loosing all of this fat!!! Just think, in the summer it will be awesome!!!

YEP!! I am cold alot!!! Alot of days I will have a sweatshirt, pants, blanket, heating pad, and this bean bag warming thing you stick in the microwave and heat up, and I still can't get warm!!!! I wear slippers all the time too, and socks!! I am always cold!! I, too, am looking forward to spring and summer!! I take a shower every morning, but every single night, I take a bath just to get all warm before I crawl into bed!! SOme nights I even sleep with my socks on....lol!!!

Thanks everyone for responding. I feel better that it is probably just from the fat loss and not that I am coming down with something Take care and keep warm! Teresa

Yes,Me Too!!! The people at work are astonished at HOW COLD I AM.I used to be sweatin' and red -faced in the winter time.I'm now wearing turtlenecks with sweater vests over them.My hubby can't believe it,either.I used to come to bed in a t-shirtand just use the sheet.Now it's flannel pjs,socks,sheet,blanket,comforter,wool blanket,and the heater going in our bedroom.(and of course,SNUGGLED UP CLOSE to him ) Paula

I have never been so cold in my life!! I have to take a hot shower every night before bed just so I can sleep. Its much better that being hot all the time tho'!

I STAY COLD TOO. I WAS TOLD IT IS BECAUSE WE ARE NOT TAKING IN AS MUCH FOOD AS WE USE TO AND SO OUR BODY DOESN'T PRODUCE AS MUCH ENERGY TO WARM US UP!!!!! SOUNDS LIKE IT COULD BE RIGHT! JUST THINK... SPRING IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER AND PERHAPS WE WILL NOT SUFFER AS MUCH THIS SUMMER!!!!! JEN

I'm frozen ALL the time!! I'm a school bus driver/trainer, and outside all the time, and in Ottawa, we're just coming out of a deep freeze. Last week, the average temp was -41 with the wind chill! One of the other trainers, Brian, felt sorry for me, and did all the outside work with the trainees, and I did classroom only- wrapped in 2 fleece blankies!! wend

So it's not just me! I am FREEZING where I never ever never ever got cold before. I also eat alot of popsicles and OMG that does it. Wrap me up in blanket after blanket until I'm just a popsicle sticking out of a heap of blankets! I thought it might be that my blood sugar is now normal all the time, but I bet you're all right, it's having less fat too. That's a good thing and FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 9 YEARS I'M GLAD I LIVE IN PHOENIX, AZ!!!!! BRING THE 110 DEGREE SUMMER ON!!!! I'M READY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sincerely, Julie
