    Do you find that you are generally too warm or too cold?

    I am constantly in a state of being too damn hot. MissH says I'm literally a human radiator. All through the summer I have to sleep with a fan on me otherwise I'll wake up sweatier than Rolf Harris at a Youth Club.

    What are you like? What do you do to keep yourself regulated?

    Cold more often than not. I wear a cover on top of my sheets all year long.

    I'm always hot. When people around me do the 'complaining about the cold in winter' thing, I usually just agree for the sake of appearing normal, but I can usually get around with just one layer.

    I am more often than not, damned cold. Luckily, I have my own human radiator to get my warmth from.

    Just at regular, normal temperatures, I am too cold. My toes and fingers are always freezing. But I am easily affected by heat and get hot too fast. ;-;

    The solution I've found is to have a wooly blanket covering me while an air conditioner blasts in my face. I also like turning the heat on my feet and driving with the windows down for cool air.

    Technically I always feel really hot but my average body temperature is lower than normal. Most people run at 98 I run at 96. I prefer the cold. I'm always hot. Like a heater.

    Yeah, Shauna is normally freezing in comparison to me. Not sure what the deal is, I usually feel just right but am actually on fire.

    I'm generally always too hot. My body seems to overheat quite easily. At rest, I'm a nice temperature, but as soon as I start moving, even simply walking, I begin to overheat.

    Sam meanwhile, is always too cold, normally. It works out quite well!

    Wow calm down there. We recently had 77F weather and I sweated buckets all day. Doesn't help that's considered a heat wave in the UK.

    I'm incredibly hot.

    And I have a pretty high core temperature, too.

    My body radiates ridiculous amounts of heat too. It sucks because I can have the AC on 65F and still be too warm. Blankets are the bane of my existence.

    I don't know if it has any correlation to always being warm, but my internal body temperature resides at a 96.7F instead of a 98.6F
