Weight loss = need new seat?

[RoadRaven]

How "old" is your saddle?

I don't know much about weight loss and saddles, but gonna give my two cents worth anyway

I have had my Dolce saddles for 2 and 3 years now. In that time I have "deliberately misplaced" 8 kgs (15-16 or so pounds?). I have found my seats more comfortable if anything and I guess that is because I have less weight on the saddle itself when I sit.

I think (I am only postulating here and am fine with being corrected) that if I had carried alot of weight in my buttocks, then I might have a wider seat to support not only sitbones well, but also the extra flesh. And as my bottom shrank, I might need a narrower seat.

The upshot is, if your saddle doesn't feel right, try out some other ones.
It may not be weight loss that is affecting your comfort - it could be that you have changed your position on your bike, or your form/fitness, and you need to alter either the position of your saddle, or the saddle itself...

Good luck...
