can't get warm!!

[bigtummymummy]

Since starting on CDSS i have struggled to keep warm, doesn't seem to matter if i have the heating on full or am wrapped up, i'm always cold!! Does anyone else have this problem? I have just come to the end of week 3 and hope this will improve as i go on.

Yup I'm on week 3 and freezing! Last time I did CDSS for 6 weeks I was freezing the whole time too!

Can't really help you, try drinking tea or coffee to keep you warm. Cold water doesn't help.

I was very cold the first weeks and the last weeks before going up the steps. I guess it's part of it ;-).

Yep just wrap up warm

Hi
I'm on day 1 of week 4 and I have been cold all the way through
My hands especially are cold all the time and I wear extra layers to try and keep warm
I have evan taken to sleeping in thermals - anything to stay warm
I can take this as a little suffering for the greater good
Imagine this summer on a beach soaking up the sun with new streamlined body - no worry of staying warm then
Keep up the good work
Cheers
James

hi there, although it may not seem like it is actually a great sign that your body is fat burning, I was constantly freezing whilst on SS and wearing 3 or 4 jumpers, scarfs and keeping the house heated to boiling point too!! but i would be really chuffed that i knew my body was doing what i wanted it to and that kept me happy, i found myself having lots of hot baths in the evenings rather than showers just to get warm!!

I am on day 17 ( there goes Marcus Bentley's voice in my head again !!!!) and I have been cold since I started, the only thing that warms me up apart from a hot bath is a cup of Bouillon. That gets right to my feet and makes me comfortable. Lets all hug the radiators in unison......I am sending hugs to anyone that is cold

 

[bevy]

Yep, on week 9 and still freezing!!

 

[Busybee]

thanks Kellycd, it's always encouraging when others know what you are going through. I now know my sacrifice of bodily warmth is worth it, however my boss is struggling to understand why it is like a sauna in my office and keeps mentioning heating costs....bah humbug, there's someone here trying to diet........next time he comes in I am going to throw my stapler at him.....that will give me a warm feeling

 

[wannabeskinny]

hope you warm up soon hun x

Hi I'm freezing, i can cope with that but I can't sleep, any help with this or is it also part and parcel of CD

 

[Busybee]

If anything I sleep better, no energy has me in bed by 10.30 - we are suffering for our diets..........worth it in the end

 

[LadyHemlock]

I'm cold at night and don't sleep well. I always wake up with really sore eyes too

 

[Linda5111]

I know how u feel, I'm freezing all the time no matter what i do to keep warm, still .... its not forever. lol.

 

[LadyHemlock]

It will be worth it in the end

 

[Devoted2beingSlim]

I think we should call this the Antartic Club, lol. I'm defo in it. Like a few others my sleep is effected too and I also get sore eyes first thing as a result. But I have discovered a temporary cure which works for me. During the Day, as well as plain water I also drink very strong black coffee and it wakes me up. The caffeine must wake me up and the heat warms me up. I daredn't drink it after teatime though otherwise I'll be buzzing through the night x

 

[nimi]

im the same im really cold were 3 jumpers and a coat plus gloves and still freezing i think its the cd that makes us cold

 

[LadyHemlock]

It is definitely the diet. The packs only really provide you with enough to keep going so there isn't really enough energy left to keep you warm when you’re running on empty!:winter_brr: But on the good side when your cold and drink cold water you lose more weight as your body uses more calories to heat the water to body temperature.
EDIT: I just read a report from a doctor that said drinking hot or cold water is rubbish! lol!
