Ok so I am the sort of person that NEVER wears a coat, always has on flip flops even in the middle of a snow storm. BUt Since surgery I have been freezing! I can't get warm (without my ho****er bottle). Is this how it is always gonna be? My sister is laughing at me cause I am dressed like I am in zero degree temps. 

I had that the first month! I couldn't get warm unless I got in a warm bath. It's just starting to even out a bit, but I still get cold sometimes. Welcome to losing all of your insulation!!!

I live up here in washington state and spent 6 years in texas and from the south all my life. I always have air on and rarely use heat no matter where I live. Even being up here, I had not used heat really yet, but now?????? YES I FREEZE TOO!!I spend more time in a hot bath trying to warm up than anything else..I hope it gets better..........

I was the same way and am experiencing that as well.  We had our surgery 9 days apart!

Don't know if everyone is like this, but I'm almost a year out and am freezing all the time. I'm hoping it will get better, otherwise I'm going to be in sweaters and wool pants all summer! LOL!

After surgery I also seem to have a problem staying warm.  Not sure why.  I have a mini heater in my office at work because they run the a/c already.  My feet tend to get cold fast now too.

Maybe this is a norm?

I don't think it gets better.  My OB/GYN had the procedure 6 years ago and says he is still constantly cold.  My sister is 5 years out is the same way.  My surgeon said the best we can do is make sure we are rebuilding muscle because that can help a bit. I keed an extra sweater or jacket in my office and my car.

I'm a year and a half out and still freeze especially during colder weather. On the plus side I LOVE summer because I never feel as hot as I used to but actually feel warm (as compared to freezing all fall/winter/early spring).

I don't feeze but I am certainly not as warm as I used to be.  I wear a scrub jacket at work a lot and I don't leave the house without long sleeves.  It is a change but not an unwelcome one.  I am anxious to see how summer is and if I will sweat the way I used to.  I hope not.  I still love my heated mattress pad and my three quilts.  

This is another example of everyone is different. I am 5 months post op and just the past couple weeks went down to only one sweater OR long sleeves not both. I actually have some days I don't need either. House could be 80 and I was cold. Its not the loss of insulation causing it because I was colder at 380 then I was at 300. It is the changing of you metabolism that is causing it. Also the faster the weight drops the colder you can get because of a metabolism in over drive. The friends I have that are at goal  (one 5 years out and one 9 months) said that the closer they got to a normal body weight the more normal their body temp. Since I got under 300 I been having relief from the cold problem.
