I actually had the opposite problem when I was strictly following
induction. I had heat flashes. It seemed to correspond with my weight
loss. It was almost like I could tell when my body switched over to
burning fat instead of carbs or when it ran out of food-supplied fuel
to burn and started burning stored fat. I didn't mind it too much, for
me it served as an indicator that what I was doing was working. Don't
know if I could stand being cold all the time, though.

How much are you eating? Give www.fitday.com a try, it's free, and
calculate a normal day's worth of food. Get the calories, then go to
www.global-fitness.com/bmr.html and get your BMR (Basal Metabolic
Rate.) Add in whatever exercise you do, even if it's just reading or
surfing the web, it counts as increasing your metabolism. Your BMR
will give you a reading of how many calories your body needs to just
keep alive, and then the activity figures in what you need to move
throughout the day.

Compare the two. How far apart are they?

I'd bet you are not eating enough, and that your metabolism is slowing
down to save calories. Slower metabolism = colder body ;-)

But if you are eating enough, then heck, crank the heat if you can
afford it, drink something hot, or put on another sweater. Body fat is
a great insulator, but it's not worth keeping around just for that.

Ditto on the poster that mentioned having your thyroid checked.

I found out that mine's out of whack (low) and one of the symptoms is cold
hands & feet.

I'm a lot cooler, but that's a good thing.. I used to just sweat
sitting or moving.. it was pretty gross.. I thought about that the
other day -- I haven't felt hot in ages, or sweat during the day..
it's really cool.
