    I was cold at first, now I'm itchy. I'd rather be cold!

    HEY! I'm itchy too! I thought it was just me!

    But, I'm cold AND itchy. Blech.

    I'm looking forward to it! I always seem to be warm and hate it. I feel like the fat sweaty girl :o( Hopefully by summer I won't have to dread the nice days for fear of sweat stains!

    Yes, I notice it in my hands a lot. Why is that?

    My hands are ALWAYS cold. My boyfriend calls them my "ice cubes" because they're so dang cold. They seriously feel like it is -20* outside and I've been out in it for hours without gloves.

    I've always been cold, especially my hands and feet. I used to drive my [ex]husband nuts because I would put my cold feet between his legs at night to get warm, and my hands under him haha

    However, you do get used to it. Since I am an electricity nazi, I never use the heat in my house. I've gotten used to my house being at 62 degrees [I have the heat set there, anything less is too cold] and I'm so used to it, I get hot if it hits 65...however people won't stay at my house because it's so cold haha

    No matter how much weight I gain/lose I am freezing.

    I am also freezing all the time. I am always wearing a jacket or a sweater because of it. Sucks cause it's not extremely flattering. :tongue:

    Yes cold, and itchy. I understand the cold but I'd like an answer to the itchy. It hadn't occurred to me that the itchy might be weight loss related until I read this thread.

    I'm always warmer than everyone else in any given situation unless I am completely and totally exhausted. Hasn't changed with weight loss, either. I just run hot! In fact, my entire life, my regular body temp is 99, not 98.6. Go figure.

    I lotion my skin everyday after my shower and I drink at least 70oz of water a day.

    Your losing fat. Fat is a good insulator.

    It's from the loss of weight. Normally you start to feel it around 10 pounds of weight loss. Some people feel it after losing 5 pounds.
