    steer clear of gummies - no or few minerals
    plus, you are adding 6 grams of sugar to your diet for no reason

    But they are so yummy! Ok I will go buy some other kind

    Being cold during/after weight loss is pretty normal. Check out any of the "what no one tells you about weight loss"" or "unexpected results of weight loss" threads that are in the success stories forum. People say this all the time.

    I'm always cold. I was before, but it's worse now. I have less insulation to keep me warm. I have a space heater in my office too. Some people just run cold.

    This has happened for as long as I can remember. Even in the summer I will never leave home without a sweatshirt. I admit in my teens and early 20s it could have been that I was to skinny but not now.

    It sounds sort-of normal for someone going through menopause. I know that my internal thermostat went haywire and for the longest time had two settings: boiling hot or freezing cold.

    Really? Boiling hot? I am never hot

    I've always been obese and have always been cold. Its worse now that I've lost 60lbs. I'm still overweight, so its not that I'm underweight.

    Some people just run cold. Unless this is a brand new symptom (doesn't sound like it is), I wouldn't worry too much about it.

    Yes, definitely both extremes. It's evened out a bit, but if I drink a frozen protein shake I have to either (a) go sit in the hot sun or (b) wrap in a blanket. And, yes, my family makes fun of me, too.

    Children's vitamins are low in iron because children don't need as much & can actually be poisoned/killed from overdosing. Only take adult vitamins, you also might have to take an extra iron supplement.

    MOVE TO HOUSTON!

    This only works if you never step foot in a building. Most air conditioned city in the world (at least I believe we still hold that title). I work in a state institution where there are always budget cuts and hiring freezes, but apparently it's never occurred to anyone to not set the thermostat to 65 degrees. I keep a sweater at work; several of my coworkers keep heaters under their desks.

    I'm cold all the time. Mine is due to living conditions (Newfoundland lack of warm humidity vs Iowa with heat index) and circulation problems. If you're really concerned it's serious, go to a doctor. All I've been told is to dress warmer, so it's thermal socks in July.

    Maybe add some carbohydrates to your diet.

    I actually had a complete blood work up done in March everything was fine except vitamin D but that was low normal. Today I am really really cold and yesterday I ate more than normal. Sleep? Not so much last night but most nights I get 7 hours. I like to sleep and I have 3 blankets on my bed so it is toasty.


    I had the exact same test results, all normal except vitamin D, and I'm freezing cold all of the time. Anything under around 80 degrees and I need a hoodie. I'm also sitting at work wearing a coat with a space heater on. I've been this way for as long as I remember, and my doctor says I'm healthy and my blood work always comes back good. I guess I just have to deal with it!

    I guess I will just have to deal but it's good to know I am not alone.

    It could be a sign of a health issue, but if you've been checked out and everything comes back normal, that might be the case. I went to the doctor specifically for this issue (it's that bad!) and he came back with nothing.

    I have an electric blanket that I use when I'm on the couch. It's a lifesaver.
