I used to be sooo HOT

Hi Deb I too was always hot ...Not now Im cold all the time..I wear a jacket most of the time at home now..never use to use blankets at bed time ,a sheet was enough..now its a blanket and a quilt!..It does beat sweating like a hog though!..I have heard that they say its caused by hormonal changes due to the drastic weight loss and that it will take a while for things to level off..probably not untill the weight loss prosses has slowed. Enjoy it for all its worth. I havent been cold in years! Its something new to me also. Bundle up Sharon WLS 12-16-03 -55lbs

Not so sure about the hormone thing...unless its a different kind of hormone....I went thru the change in my 30's...haven't had hormones in forever and don't take anything...had a hystericalectomy in 2000....I'm almost 17 months out and I STILL FREEZE.....IN FLORIDA!!!!!!!

Thanks for all the feed back!!!!! I'm so relieved to know its not just me and its just one of the "benefits" of WLS, well at least it will be this summer when I can cut down on the air conditioning. My daughter is loving this, she says she cant wait to be in the car with me or trying to sleep this summer without freezing her buns off. But for now, snow is on the way, so I have all my warming "gear" ready. Stay all warm snuggly!!! Deb
