Anyone else think there bones feel sooo weird??
I live in Ohio, and the cold is brutal for me, I bought a heated mattress pad and LOVE it. I'm just beginning to feel bones, ribs, clavicle, shoulders, my butt hurts to sit on hard surfaces, but I can always add more clothes and blankets, this next summer Ill feel better, last summer I didn't have the option of taking off a layer of fat to get cooler. So I'm thinking it is soo worth it.

I'm Still a work in progress, I wont give up the quest to reclaim my life, I will be whole again someday!

hahahahaha i had this exact same conversation with my hubby a couple of weeks ago. I told him i couldnt comfortable cause there were all these hard pointy things making me uncomfortable, he looked at me like id grown another head and was completly confused, i said i think their called.....uh whats that word? skeletons have them? he said bones? i said OH YEAH THOSE... ha ha
I hear you !! I will take it a stepfuther. My hip and backside bones.And pelvis wow what a difference!!!The only complaint my hubby has is when here latly I go for the flannels he insists he will keep me warm.I use to never get cold in fact had ceiling fans and ac and a fan blowing beside bed right on me.That beside fan is now off.I will be frank and admitt I use to sleep in the buff I was just to durn hot at night.Kids nevvvvver thought anything about it becauswe I always slept that way (hubby worked overseas) so weither he was home or not.I would tell them my body needs to breathe (lol)We are a house of girls.Hubby always get a kick out of me telling all other males are gelded or nutered .We have horses and he always remembers if I can have them gelded then he better watch out he weighs less than them, and they can run faster than hi8m.LOL
I am finding bones that I never knew I had. I love (ok this is going to sound weird) to touch my collar bone ! That I can feel it right below my skin is just so....darned odd to me ! And my hands -- who knew I had so many bones and tendons in there ?!
The most interesting though are my knees. One of the reasons I had this surgery was to lose enough weight to qualify for knee replacement. I need 2 new knees....before they hurt constantly, and I walked with a cane....well, I actually hobbled with a cane at 300 pounds. Now, at 117 pounds lighter....no cane, and I walk better; but still in pain most of the time, and now, I can actually SEE the swelling. Never could before ! I have had to go in to my ortho doc twice now for new knee brace fittings, because I have lost so much weight, I needed smaller knee braces (which I now only wear for exercise!) Yes, I still need new knees. Cartilidge won't grow back....and the bone damage is permanent....but these knees fascinate me !
