Ahh how to ask this delicately...So is it like you are always in a cold room? :eek::Q I bet your husband is loving that.
yes, most of the time. that is a side effect of the procedure. i am kinda self concious about it thoug, especially since i cannot wear a bra.

Is it a permanent side effect or a temporary one as your body adjusts to the implants? Is it just in the colder weather that it does this, or all the time? I had "friend" in college who had implants and I could have sworn hers were not always "cold".

I won't turn my heat on unless it drops to below 64 degrees in my house this winter - screw high energy costs.

I wouldn't turn it on just yet. I see your profile says Lincoln. I also live in Lincoln, it'll be ~70°F by Saturday. You can be warm then. I didn't turn mine on. Grab a blanket and lets keep the energy costs for everyone down. Natural gas is expected to be up 60%. Even if you are electric heat, LES uses a lot of natural gas for electricity production.

We've kept our unit off for the last 2 weeks or so.

I'm excited to get my next electricity bill :D

what i would *like* to have it at: 74.
i am cold (more like freezing) all the time
it's a male/female thing.
men's internal thermostats are set higher.

it must be. even in the summer, on a cooler night, i need to have my heated seat in our car on! :eek:

Silicone doesn't keep you as warm as fat!
She sits on her tits?

funny you should mention this... first off... no silicone. saline only.
but, the saline does lower your body temp. so since surgery, i am colder because of them.
