I believe this is extremely common. I haven't lost enough weight for my tailbone to hurt yet, but any time I lost weight and got around 200 or below, my tailbone would kill me. I told my doctor once that it feels like I have a kickstand up my tushie..LOL When I sit down, my tailbone props me up.  Some of the women here even go so far as to carry a donut pillow around with them.
