Question for the vets

I everyone! I lost - little over 75 pounds in the past 4 months and I am 5'5 and weigh 154.2 as of this morning.

Here's my questions....I noticed that when I sit I can feel my tail bone. If I sit on the floor it hurts! I can't do crunches on the floor because of this and it feel like I'm forever sitting on something hard! Is this normal????? This is the lowest I have ever been in my adult life so I really don't know if this is normal because I no longer have the extra cushion? But pain?? To do sit-ups??

Thanks in advance!

-Ruthie ????

Oh, yeah, Girl! I had to change positions SEVERAL TIMES on my way to WORK!!!! My tailbone, unfortunately, also extends longer than average! I can literally feel it all the time!

My suggestion, buy you one of those padded butt thingy! LOL it might be worth it, though.

And yes, I am 3 1/2 years out - below goal - I DID NOT REGAIN ANY BUTT FAT! :)

Hahaha, welcome to a 'downside' of normal!!!

Yeah, I've begun to notice that my car seat puts pressure on my butt bone. :-0 So I'm adding squats to my workout routine to put some meat between me and the chair!

Does that help increase butt? Afraid I won't be able to get up!!! LOL

I find this so odd! It's not the first time I've read a thread about this very same thing... It happens to a lot of people. I too have this problem and it is very painful even making me grimace and sit up slowly..

But what is odd? Well I've lost this weight a MILLION times before and have NEVER had this problem??

Ive lost weight before but not this much. I though maybe there was something wrong with my spine/tail bone or is it just the lack of extra padding I've had pretty much all my life. How come I never hear thin people complain about this? I see them sitting in all kinds of positions lol

I need to get my BUTT in gear and start exercising.....yup I have not been regularly exercising. Maybe some buns of steal on me will help!

Thanks All! I am glad its not just me! :P

I have this problem too! Sitting too much is just painful. I'm 4 months out on Friday. None of my family understand it either. Yesterday I went out to eat and focused so much on shifting around it was like I was suffering with some hemorrhoids or something lol
