Default Painful WOW

Okay so this is a wow...I really need to... and wow, I do not think I have ever been here before.

I have realized that I have no muscule (spelling). My butt hurts when I sit. I can feel my tailbone.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I've lost 70 lbs 2 other times in my life and I remember that pain well. Just losing 45 lbs after my son was born 2 years ago gave me that "pain in the butt" feeling. It hurt so bad I went to my Dr. and he actually had my tailbone x-rayed. He said it was all good and I just didn't have any padding anymore. He said that as heavy people with heavy thighs and heavily padded tushies... we didn't learn to "sit" properly, or haven't in a long while. If you notice, as heavy people with big thighs, butts and hips, we tend to sit a little forward when we're sitting up. When you lose weight and start to lean back on that tail bone, we're not used to it. I told my Dr. it felt like I had a kickstand up my butt. LOL I started sitting on the boppy pillow i had when I nursed my son. Sort of a donut shaped pillow that had an opening to go around my waist. I sat on that when i watched tv or sat at the computer. I'm waiting for that feeling to start again..Yikes!!!

Hope it feels better soon.

I take a pillow with me all over the place...when I went in for my 6 month checkup, the nurse told me...."you're cold all the time and your tailbone hurts, right???" I was laughing when I agreed....she said those are her number 1 & number 2 complaints!
