Default Re: unusual side effect from losing weight. bruises on bones!

I've never been able to sleep with my knees together. Even as a kid, I slept with a pillow between my knees. It must be hereditary, because I never let my daughter sleep with me, but when she was still tiny, she would put her little silk baby pillow between her knees, while she was still sleeping in a crib. It was so cute! It was so me!

What hurts me is my bony butt. I don't have much butt to begin with, but that is where I lose first. When I am somewhere for a long time, like choir practice, sitting on a metal chair, I have to have a pillow to sit on. Our seats in the choir loft are padded, but after a while I am dying to wiggle and sit on a different cheek. Alas, the choir director reminds us often that we are being video taped all the time and all shuffling around is picked up by camera and the powerful mics right over our head. It's torture.
