I've searched and found that this is sometimes a problem for people after losing weight. Has anyone else experienced this? If so what remedies did you find that worked?
I had the exact same thing. My saddle was too narrow and too soft. I went with a Brooks B72 and it solved the problem. I also had to get a different desk chair. the other one was just a little too soft and aggravated the pain.
