Yes it's quite normal as far as i'm aware...i think it's a "side effect" of being in Ketosis, so it's good news really lol

 

[pete10141748]

Yeah, most people find that Ketosis makes them cold, I think it's to do with the body slowing down it's metabolism though I can't be sure of that fact.

It comes and goes for me, some days I'll feel extremely cold even when near a radiator, other days (like today) I don't notice the cold at all; even as I type this, I am sitting next to an open window and actually enjoying the cool air breeze!



Strange things, our bodies

read this thread as although i'm a weightwatcher not a cd'er it grabbed my attention. sometimes when i am really'on it ' and having a good week i feel really cold, but dont think my diet would sned me into ketosis, there must be something in it tho.

btw pete love the new photo.....looking good dude

Welcome to Keto Land lol

I too am always freezing.

I think a reasonable weight loss affects it too MommyB it is like losing insulation...

Im on day 6 of s/s and from what im told being cold is a good sign that im losing weight!

But still it is very cold im fully dressed.. heating on and still got my dressing gown ontop as im writing this! lol

Probably because it is cold

But also because cutting down on calories causes thermogenesis when you eat, your body makes heat.

Less food, less heat.

It's also to do with a reduced metobolic rate (which happens with every diet), and of course, as the diet goes on, you have less fat insulation.

Lots of layers needed

perfectly normal hun good sign of ketosis x

It appears the colder it is outside and the colder I appear to be, the more weight I tend to lose. I am wearing all my old clothes on top of all my new ones. People havent noticed I have lost weight because I am so stacked out with clothes. I just have this diddy little face and a hemispheric body lol

 

[lindylou]

Just remember to shed those layers before you weigh-in!!!!!!! :8855:
