do we always freeze?

I am 9 months post-op and freezing!!!! So, from all of you old-timers, does the internal thermometer get any better? As my weight stabilizes will I no longer look like a chihuahua in Alaska? Susan

I'm not nearly as bad as I was a year ago. Periodic hot flashes are back too--------I didn't miss those.

Hi Susan I was freezing also. I was burning everyone up at work, so now I have a little heater under my desk. It is nice and warm in my office. The only problem is when I go out of my office, it feels like I am walking into a freezer I was always HOT before surgery...even in the winter. Now I am cold if it gets below 70. That's ok though...I will keep warm. Carmen

Susan, I still have lots of freezing days, although not as bad as last winter. For me, I think my weight stabilizing has played a part of it being better. Dana

Thanks everyone for the replies. I guess I am going to have to invest in more sets of Cuddl Duds so I can wear them everyday. It's only November. I'll be a popsicle by January when it really gets cold. My boss and I have offices that are connected and we can control our own heating/cooling. He is the only man I know who likes the same temp I do. Others complain about my office being too warm and I just tell them that as long as the man in the other office isn't complaining the temp is staying where it is. Today I'm wearing a turtleneck cashmere sweater and I'm wishing I'd put something under it because the thermostat is already set at 72 and I'm still cold. I may have to plug in my small heater under my desk. Brrrrrrrr Susan

3 years out and still freezing after all these years, funny though , in summer its kind of nice, when others are dying at 100 degree heat, im finally comfortable... so theres a sort of upside....

I still get cold and can't warm up easily, but it has gotten much better than it was. I hope you warm up soon!!!!!!!!! Tracy B 328/150 5'9"
