    Interesting Benfallen. I wonder if they did any studies in the differences between men and women weighing the same? It seems that women are usually colder than men (to me at least).

    My aunt had gastric bypass (lost 60 lbs) and now she's always cold! Like you said, she's freezing when the AC is on!

    I have the same problem. I am almost always cold now, even when it's sunny outside.

    OMG I'm gonna sound like a total dork, but I think its because your surface area to volume ratio increases when you're skinnier.

    Same here, I normally kept my AC at 65 when I was bigger, now it's at 80. My sister and her friend came to visit and said are you cool? It's hot in here. I said I feel fine.

    At work, I haven't turned on my AC unit in my office. I keep the door close to keep the cold air from the hallway out. Interesting...

    My iron is fine by the way.
