It's odd, since bumping up to 7mg Friday I felt colder in the watering hole and even home. My wife mentioned it this afternoon, she was cold. House is at 77*, but it's been at that temp for years. Been on this stuff 5 months, Interesting.
I used to be cold all the time, then about three years ago a switch flipped and I ran hot instead and was miserable...a month on 1mg of reta added to my tirz and I remember what it's like to feel cold in an air conditioned building again 
On GLP-1 for 3 years. Hasn't gotten any better for me. But I'll take it in exchange for the weight loss and other benefits.
To be honest, the cold never goes away, especially if you're doing intermittent fasting. So either like for 16 hours, you don't eat anything, or especially if you do one meal a day, then the cold gets pretty brutal. And I remember even without reta and even with eating a lot more calories than I usually do now, I would still get cold. And I think it's just because I fast daily. I only eat once a day. So everyday is a 24 hour fast. and right now at such a low body fat percentage, theres no barely any fat to provide insulation. so yes youre destined to wear sweaters and jackets in 70 degrees lol
Other’s mentioned it but your body’s thermogenesis decreases with weight loss. You can see the article that tracked people on the biggest loser show. I found my coldness decreased after being stable at a lower weight and increasing my calories to maintenance with some muscle mass increase.

The last time I lost a lot of weight in 2012 to 2014, and went from 120kg or so to 65kg, I was colder and my body temp dropped a lot, by a degree at least so that instead of 36.9 degrees I was pretty consistently at around 35.something or very low 36 degrees. My body was obviously trying very hard not to burn any calories.
Weirdly body temperature never dropped much this time from 145 kg to 65kg. No idea why really. I feel the cold more, but mostly it is an improvement, being much more comfortable in warmer weather, and I can always put on an extra jumper when it is cold. And not sweating all the time is nice.

Goodness me, after my 2nd Reta dose yesterday, I am...am...freezing.. 
Me too, 2nd Dose on Sunday of 1 mg Reta and had to go to bed with a heating blanket, because my feet were icecubes
The weird skin sensations from reta often feel a lot like being cold.
nope, my coworkers hate me
