Stupid Question

hopeitworks

I have a really stupid question - Have any of you who have lost weight notice that you get cold quicker and more often? I seem to be affected by the cooler temperature more these days, Anybody else notice that or am I just crazy?

i have noticed it myself even the difference btwn my dd (9 and stick thin) and ds (6 and built thick) my dd freezes all the time, i don't know the technical reason but it could do to not having as much insulation (fat).

Yep. I'm sitting in my office right now with a sweatshirt on freezing.

I always used to be HOT

Well, I'm glad I'm not the only one then. (as I put my sweater on at work)

I used to be able to walk around in shorts and a t-shirt in the fall and be pretty confortable, now I'm freezing all the time. I guess losing that extra insulation really makes a difference.

I can't tell you how happy I am to hear this - I thought there was something wrong with me! I've been FREEZING for the past three weeks - and I was always hot before - no matter what the weather.

Wow. :happy:

Thanks!!

Yep, since I have lost weight I do get colder much more easily. I'm pretty okay with it though, just means I have less of my own insulation! :laugh: :bigsmile:

Most definitely!

I just used to wear a denim jacket all winter long, and already I am thinking what day will I have to break out the new LLBean coat I bought because I was so confident I was going to lose enough weight this time around that I would get cold. Also, since I've boosted my water consumption well over 100 oz a day, my hands seem to get cold easily, too.

To add to that question, do you ever feel like when your cold, you want to eat something becasue it will warm you up?? I may be weird, but now that I am losing weight, I get colder all the time. And for some psychological reason I want something warm to eat and I'll be warm.. . . . my husband thinks Im losing it!!!!:noway:

NO. :laugh: I eat to have energy, not to stay warm. There's calorie free, fat free, cholesterol free CLOTHING for that... :laugh:

:laugh: :laugh: It's natural, food causes warmth (even cold food) But that's not what you want to do :laugh: :laugh:

I've always been a hot person myself and it's funny you mentioned this because I noticed it myself the other night. I had a thin comfortable night gown and I had to take it off to wear some sweats because I was freezing! I even turned on the heat a little in my home.
