Just wondering, how come I keep on getting hot. ie its coldish here in UK now, but when I walk to and from work, all bout 20 mins long, I end up totally burning up inside. What could that be? I see people wearing coats and scarfs and as soon as im half way through my walk want to take my jacket off!

Has it got anything to do with my burning furnace I have just stoked up because of reintroducing exercise after 3 months off, I have just started to do spin couple times of week too, which is so hard at the mo, but loving it.

Or is it that im just a hot blooded person?

    My husband has the same issue. I have to walk for an hour before it happens to me. Are you drinking enough water?

    Girl I don't have to walk far at all to start sweating..I used to think it was because I was fat...but my mother, a nurse said it is just how my body cools itself off...who knows.

    Happens to me too. I think its just your body heating up as you expend energy in walking. I figured thats what it was for me. I sweat quite a lot too. Always put a jacket or jumper on to go and walk the dog and then wish i hadn't because i'm melting. Straight into the wash when i get home lol.

    I'm in South Devon, so i guess the temperature is still quite mild for us here.

    Me too - seem to leak more than the average amount when i do any kind of exercise ... but then i was encouragd recently when i was told / found out that apparently it means that your body is really efficient at cooling itself down. & apparently the fitter you get the more likely you are to sweat because your body is getting more efficient. Not sure how true it is obvisouly but i can see the logic. I drink loads of water (as i don't drink tea or coffee) so it could also be that i have excess fluid that my body is just desperate to get rid of ...!!
