always freeeeeeezing!!

I am always freezing as well when I used to be the one putting the fan on. I've had my thyroid and my levels checked, they are fine. So I throw on another hoodie and blanket

Ginger tea will warm you up for short bursts of time. I am always cold unless I am moving so it is either tea or housework.

Same here. I think the first five lost pounds was the warm layer.

At work I was always known as the 'hot' one (not in that way). In fact I always insisted on having the AC on and had many battles with the ladies over temperature (I think 23-24c is nice but its apparently too cold!). Since losing weight I'm finding myself feeling a lot colder; to the point where I will occasionally wear jumpers in the office. This had shocked a lot of people; in fact now the office is warmer because I don't insist on having the AC on all the time some of the other staff now complain how hot it is!

I'm enjoying not always being hot all the time and not being singled out as the one that's always hot.

Yes, Yes, Yes. I used to look forward to the winter because I knew I would be comfortable, not too hot, and not cold. Now I am cold all the time. I can't believe I am saying this but I can't wait till summer when it is warm LOL! I wear a lot of sweaters and I even got a heated matress pad so when I get into bed at night I don't freeze to death LOL! Crazy how things change.
But drinking hot chocolate or tea will usually warm me up.

I thought it was just me once I had lost about 30lbs I noticed I was feeling the cold a lot more. Usually in my toes. I even started wearing socks when in bed!

Me too I used to always be warm now I am always cold especially my feet. I wear 2 pair of socks as soon as I get home from work till I get up in the morning . I also now sleep with a sheet, a heavy cotton blanket, and two comforters and I used to sweat at night all year not anymore. But I figure I have lost 46 lbs of insulating lol of course I'm cold.

I am ALWAYS freezing (for years... maybe since i was like 8 or 9?) and i always thought i just had "bad circulation". After losing weight it got even worse and my feet and hands would be so cold they would hurt to walk and type.

Turns out i was diagnosed with hypothyroidism a few months back and that is likely the case. :P

Darn!

You've made your body's thermostat more efficient as hard as that is to believe--you're probably thinking, "it's not efficient if I'm freezing all the time". Think about it, if exercising is a part of your daily routine then your body is used to getting hot at certain point in the day every day and it's learning to become more efficient in heated conditions, therefore making it more bearable for you to continue your workout without overheating. The summer is BAD here in TX, but I don't feel it's as bad as it was 50 lbs ago. Yeah, I have less insulation, but my heart rate is consistently running at a lower pace than it used to be, making my body use less energy than it used to at a heavier weight.

Makes sense to me, I don't know if there's any scientific research to go with that, but it sure sounds about right...

I'm always freezing, but I think it is the ice water I drink all day. Someone commented on having thyroid issues and I have had hypothyroidism for the last 17 yrs and never had a problem with being cold and it is stable so I know my thyroid is not causing me to be cold. I'm going to continue to think that it is from cold water.

Yep, it drives my husband nuts. I am thinking about getting a heated mattress pad even though we live in SE Texas.
