Is summer easier when you aren't fat?

We are camping this week. I am dying from the heat. It is hotter than usual and I am fatter than ever. My surgery is soon after we get back and I have been daydreaming how much easier this trip will be when I am thinner (we go every year). I'm hoping the heat is easier to handle. It's got to be, right??

Yes!! It will be MUCH easier for you next year! 

( My entire life is easier now. )

Summers were always really bad. Now, I can be out in the heat with no problems, as long as I keep drinking my water; which is super important-at any weight.

YES!!!  The first 6mths after surgery I was frozen day and night.  This summers crazy heat doesn't bother me at all, things aren't rubbing and sticking and I have to be super hot to even break a sweat!  All things are better and easier

Summer is easier but winter is harder. There is a new and persistent kind of cold after RnY surgery.

I'm kind of worried about the persistent cold thing. I'm cold now! Love the heat and can't get enough of summer.

Very true!

I'm glad I'm prety good at finding deals. If I can find great clothing deals now, it should be a breeze when I'm a lot smaller.

You'll be amazed at all the cute styles and colors you can find in smaller sizes. I used to hate shopping and now there are so many choices it's hard to make up my mind.

Not everyone gets the cold side effect after surgery. I never did. But I did lose the horrible heat and sweatiness that came from being super morbidly obese.
