my butt hurts



Recommended Posts

Ok so does anyone elses butt freaking hurt all the time now? OMG sometimes I can hardly sit down. someone told me it was because i no longer have the extra padding there..but the thing is in my family my dad has this joke that we belong to an Indian tribe the NoAssAtAlls, because both of us have an almost concove butt..not saying its not wide just flat as a pancake on a hot grill..its just so annoying to me.

Im glad I lost my weight, but COME ON! Ive got to sit every now and then dont I..

With the things people share here sometimes, I sooo had to debate with myself whether or not to open this thread.

I've not noticed much difference in my bottom, but even at a normal weight I had junk in my trunk.

I've noticed it in other areas, tho. E.g. I drive with my legs splayed, and my left knee used to sit comfortably against the door panel, and know if I do it my knee bones make uncomfortable contact.

Elena M..just cause youre fat doesnt mean you have a butt! Im telling you, when when I was fat, it was still borderline on being concave!!

Oh crapola! I think I wet my undies right now....LOL!

You are so right, I guess that's my case.... it's wide, but no bubble.... my daughter says that I have a rectangular butt... whatever that is...

That would be me, also. I'm hoping that I get a bit more curve as I lose weight. Right now, it's just flat.

I really do wish my butt would go down. :rolleyes:

Picture the profile of a rubber ducky. Now replace that big old ducky chest with small boobs and a flatish abdominal profile.

That's me.

Speaking of butts, does anyone else have "the shelf"? AKA the place where the butt actually exits the rest of the body. (My theory is that "the shelf" comes from sitting down, as in desk job. The fat is gradually reshaped upward.) Pre-op you could pretty much actually set things on my butt shelf and they woulda stayed.

OMG, looking for a graphic to help describe this, shy of slapping (no pun intended) my own derriere up on here, I found out this is an actual thing. Shelf Butt. Of course the whole "an otherwise not large woman" doesn't really apply to me.

geez well appreciate that youve got a but, seriously if you take a pic of me standing sideways, it looks like someone erased my butt in photohop!I cant even put my hands in my back pockets cause theres nothing there to stop them! On the plus side however, my butt has never been pinched!..youd have to find it first!

After a brief analysis... when I was slimmer back in the days.... I was sort of flat....but at the time I thought I had a big butt and wanted to lose some, but it was wide, just wide....which is not good, ultimate conclusion...I have a large flat , rectangularish butt...one more reason to be depressed...:rolleyes:

well on the good news, you can now say that you belong to the NoAssAtAll tribe...because this totally makes up for having flat butts that either curve in instead of out (me) or have odd geometric shapes!

How can I have a shelf when I don't even have a butt, I only have width.... and the saddest part is that I got to that conclusion today, all these years I thought I had a big butt, but I really didn't....

Nope, I would much rather have your butt, because I think it helps to disguise the tummy... people would look at the butt instead of the front... I would rather be the pear shape.... I'm an apple...or a big watermellon....not sure anymore...:omg:

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
