Will summer just get here already???

I'm cold.  All the time.  Like "vampire or woman of the undead" cold.  I know it's because I have less fat but yeesh.  I'm sick of cold.  I figure in the summertime I'll at least have a built-in AC system in my blood stream.  Plus I'm pale.  Which plays to the whole vampire vibe.  Not good.

Anyone else really looking forward to warmer weather?

I know that I am.  It won't come fast enough. 

Whom ever said that people who have WLS are taking the easy way out, have never had this experience.  This is a journey and a major challenge.  Step by step I am striving to make it as a loser!!

YES!!!  I can't WAIT until it's warmer!  If I'm soooo cold now, I'm anxious to see how summer is going to be.  Pre-op I dreaded it!

Well, you won't find 75-80 degrees in Baltimore in the summer, that's for sure!!!  Factor in the humidity and it's oppressive enough to make you WISH for fall.  I start wishing for fall about mid-May - you know, when we go from 60 degrees right to 95+!!!!  UGH!!!

Well since I've always been anemic I was always cold...now I'm going through surgery induced menopause from a hysterectomy in October last year and I'll be if I'm not hot most of the time.  LOL!  It's starting to get better though... and I absolutely prefer the summer.  I can't wait to get back in to my bikini.  LOL!  Any other takers?

Surprisingly I am OK. Not cold not hot. just fine. Someday I am cold - but  only when it is cold...I turned off the heat (I am in SC), and I am not cold enough to waste money on that.  Once I get home and I want to sit and pet my cat (she needs that) I take a thick blanket and we are both cozy.  Even though she is small - she is a good heather.  On the other hand - I spent a lot of time in my BF house, and he keeps his house at 68.  Not too bad.  Other than that - I love, love hot showers.  I use them to get warm.  In my house I get out of the shower when the water gets cool, my BF installed double boiler - so I have to time myself....lol - have not run out of ho****er yet. 

I try to get food that is generally warming: spicy food, ginger tea (daily), limit amount of soy (had a big impact on my body temperature - the less soy - the warmer I feel).  

Feeling cold indicated that your body is not adjusting - that will also indicate that your metabolism is slower than it can be.  Have you measure your morning body temperature? Every morning before you get out of bed measure the temp for a least 1 week. Avoid ovulation time (if you still do) since the body temp shall be higher then.  If it is below normal - you may need to talk to your doc, and try to see what you need to do to raise the temp.  Stimulating your thyroid - may be in order.  At least you need to get it checked.

I have been freezing since I got home from the hospital after surgery!  I can't seem to stay warm.  It is driving my hubby crazy but I went from liking my temp set at 68 at home, to needing 72 to get warm and sleep!

I am spending way to much time running to get a hot shower or bath as well.  Hoping this is something that will regulate sooner rather than later!
