Chilly Side Effects

For me, it’s been an issue for the last 15 pounds of loss. I live in the south, so I know for a fact it is NOT cold anywhere around here in August. And yet, I usually have a blanket most mornings and evenings now.

It’s metabolic. We know this. Just one big energy balance. But it’s still weird.

SC bro checking in. Playing golf tomorrow in 105 heat index.

For OP its just being in a significant calorie deficit for me, GLP1 or not. I am freezing all day every day when I am inside at work or elsewhere. Keeping the house at 75 or 76 these days.
 
I became far more tolerant of hot conditions and generally colder just with losing a lot of weight before I started GLP's, partly loss of inches of insulating fat, but also a pretty large drop in daily energy expenditure, no matter how cold I was my body did not want to waste energy shivering. With tirz plus reta, I really feel the cold especially in my forearms as even pretty small drops in temperature from 21 to 19 degrees c , exaggerates the weird skin sensations, often needing long sleeves to stop it.
