Mine hasn't gone away, but it's better. That or I'm better at layering up.

I actually had to stop for a while because the anxiety got to be too much to deal with. Now I feel like I've evened out enough that I can start on the second half.
I lost about 30 lbs pretty fast in the 3 rehabs I was in due to knee issue and loss of appetite due to pain drugs and probably abx drugs too. I still lose hair and still feel cold or chilly and it's in 80's today here in SM. Never thought about this coldness and weight loss. I don't want to put the weight back on for sure as it's better all round to have it gone, for joints for sure.

The coldness is a pain. However I would rather be less weight and cold, than obese and warm.

Yep, it's easy to put a long sleeve shirt on when it's 80 today. I just put my shirt back on. Most of the weight came off my chest and arms and the hanging skin is not pretty, but I don't care no one sees it but me.

I let myself get a little heavy with retirement and thought it was OK...it wasn't.
