I'm always in a hoody in my house or wrapped in a blanket post op. Seems it happened right after surgery.

yep, totally normal....but I think it does help once your weight stabilizes at your 'new normal' (not too skinny) and if you exercise to keep your metabolism up and running. So if I work out in the morning less likely to be cold later on. But I do know that frequently I am colder than most the folks around me. But this is okay...easier to throw another layer on than take off the fat!

I love it. I like wearing hats and hoodies, etc. I'm cold now, but like it. So much better than being hot all the time.

Patients can get cold during surgery, particularly because of the drugs used as anesthetics mcdvoice.
