Changes

One thing I have noticed when losing weight is not only that my clothes are fitting looser but I'm cold!  At my highest weight I was never cold - always hot!  I usually didn't even turn my heat above 65.  After losing 30 lbs I'm cold....often.  Our house is at 70 degrees most of the time and I'm still cold!  I am using more sweatshirts then ever before or always have a blanket on me on the rare moments I get to sit and watch TV or read a book.  What will I be like after losing another 30 lbs?  I will have to dress in several layers or wear a coat inside. lol  Hmmmm

I think I heard somewhere that your blood sugars can affect your feelings of hot/cold.  Losing weight, eating better and taking my meds more regularly certainly has lowered my blood sugar levels - so much so that I have been able to cut my meds in half. I am hoping that if I can lose another 50 I will be off those darn meds all together - which will save us money -- which is always a good thing!
