    Re: Who else gets colder now that.....

    I have found myself having to wear extra layers to work this winter and I'm still shivering constantly! I'm just proud that I've avoided Bronchitus this year! Woohoo! lol

      Re: Who else gets colder now that.....

      A few months ago I commented I was warmer. Until recently we have had an incredibly good run if weather in Britain. Even in September I would often sleep completely uncovered (not a stitch!) - to the extent I was thinking my thermostat was set high on Atkins.

      But now the temperature has fallen I think my tolerance for the cold is considerably reduced.

      Make of that what you will.

      Both observations could be true - running hotter, so when temperate, less clothing is required; but less insulation under the skin, so more clothing is needed when cold.

      (And K5, I don't think I want to know about your nipples )
      Atkins didn't say 'Calories don't count',
      he said, 'Don't count calories.'

        I'm definately colder this year. But now I'm working in a place that is not heated. Yeah. They don't heat public schools in Japan. It makes the kids strong. Or that's what they say anyway. So now I sit at my desk in slippers and my jacket with a blanket over my lap. And homes aren't insulated here either, so my apartment is always chilly! But it feels chillier this year than last year.

        Fortuantely, I have quite a few cute new (smaller) sweaters this year to keep me (sort of) warm and toasty. Without any actual toast.

                My husband always teased me that I must have been raised on the sun, as I was always turning the heat down and the a/c UP! But now I always the one FREEEEEZING! Very new territory for me!
