LOL, hip bones and knees!

[crickee 85]

Hmmm. . . . I always knew there were hip bones under there, just never really felt them until last night. My cat decided to "walk all over me" and something didn't feel right where she walked. I checked and LOL, it was my hip bone I was feeling! It took -100 lbs to notice this and that I actually have knees that I can see! My hubby just laughed and said he never thought about that before!

LOL I was just talking to my husband about this. I can feel bones that I forgot were there! Last night I could feel my sternum which I haven't felt in years!

I completely understand! I have gone from a size 42 bra to a 34! Also, now that the rear padding is gone, I can feel my tailbone on certain chairs . . . . . not fun!

OMG Last night I was sitting in the shower trying to shave my legs and my butt was hurting!!

My knees knock together at night. I'm a side sleeper and now I have to put the covers in between my knees or it hurts. Have you noticed your coccyx hurting yet? My car seat puts pressure on my butt-bone and sometimes it's uncomfortable. :-P

I too am a side sleeper, I put a pillow between my knees some nights like I did when I was pregnant! I am very aware of my coccyx, certain chairs are not comfortable anymore. I also have had a pilonidal cyst there since I was 18, I really try to be careful not to put extra pressure on it! I really don't want to have it removed, having it lanced once was more than enough and that was over 30 years ago!

OMG!!!!! it feels so "BONEY" I have sensed felt 'the bone' more and more.......so I am very careful with it as to how and where I sit.....I NEVER EVER have had that problem before!!!!!!!!

My husband was laying on the couch with me and asked me why I had my cell phone in my pocket, I told him that I didn't but that was my hip bone! haha

Also having lots of trouble with my tailbone. I actually have a sore on it and when I sit on it the wrong way, oh my word! I bought one of those blow up donut pillows and have to use it most anytime I sit. Taking a 7 hour flight next week and my donut will be with me on that flight! Last time I took a flight it felt like I was sitting on a hammer!!!

I'm soooo ready...I'm 2 months out...and VERY impatient!!! ;-P always have been. I'm just still fighting the fear of failing:(

I broke my tailbone in 2006, fell while I was rollerskating. It gives me pain now when I sit too long, wonder if that will get worse once I lose weight? I also have bursitis in my hip as a result of that fall, wonder if it will improve?

Please go see your family doctor about this, it could be a pilonidal cyst. They are very common, but no one talks about them. They can be very painful!
