Topic: RE: Cold hands
I've been noticing that I get colder now than I used to, but I don't think it is due to anything vitamin deficeny wise.
I like to say I'm losing my insulation.....

Topic: RE: Cold hands
Hi
I am just a little over a year out and I continue to be much colder than the average person. If I am not that cold then my hands continue to be as cold as ice. This is not always a sign of low iron. I met someone at the surgeon's office who had WLS over 4 years ago and she still gets very cold. This woman also had no vitamin deficiencies. I had my blood work done last week and have not gotten any results back. Originally my surgeon said the coldness was due to our bodies had to re-regulate. How long does that take? I don't know. Good Luck!

Topic: One year out and pregnant
Hi y'all....well I am one year out, down 185 total lbs. And feeling wonderful. I found out a few weeks ago that I am pregnant. (As of today I am 11 weeks.) I wasn't too happy about it at first because I was worried about the health of the baby, but after I've been assured that all will be well, I am so excited. I have one child now, he's 10, so this is going to be like starting over! I only hope this one is a girl

Topic: Cold hands
Has anyone else a year out experienced very cold hands? what about being cold all of the time. Is this a sign of low iron? I got to see my surgeon on the 20th and I am going to mention both to him. I was just wondering.....
Topic: RE: Just looking for support
thanks I am going to try both of your suggestions. I did not have a lot to loose in the first place...not as much as others but a personal goal is 140 lbs which means I need to loose another 30 pounds. I am trying to get there by June when I go home- to
California- my family has not seen me since the wls.
