Every night around 7pm I get super chilling cold. Especially my nose and feet. I take hot showers, put on thick socks, crank up the heat, wrap up in blankets, drink warm tea and nothing seems to help! We are planning on going out on Friday night for my husband’s 50th bday. I’m afraid I’m going to be cold and uncomfortable. Does anyone have any remedy’s or suggestions?

No advice, just sympathy because ever since I started this diet I am cold all of the time.

I wear layers and layers. A cardigan on top and a parka over that. Using an electric blanket at night and a heated throw at my desk. I have to remember it’s all part of taking care of me and motivates me to stay on track so when I go on to phase two I may feel a bit warmer. How the timing is ironic because in the summer I will want this feeling, lol.

@peculate this is why I'm a fan of layering and vests, I'm not sure if you live in a warm place but when it is cold here it is warm socks UGGS and layering for me. Jackets make me fill bulky and like I cant move its weird.

@dissolve I live in California. Cold for us is 40-50 degrees. Lol! We do wear uggs and layer though. Just not when we go out for a night on the town.

@lai we had fun. I didn’t really get too cold which was great.! However, the chicken and beef I had definitely tasted like there was some sugar in it. Hopefully I didn’t do too much damage.

The best is a blanket for your car that plugs in, have one love it.
