Discovering my Xiphoid Process?

Well, nearly a year after gastric bypass.  Still learning what that means.  Like finding a sharp, pointed bone just under the skin at the bottom of my breastbone.  Thought it was growing there, but the Doc tells me it has been there all along.  And as I continue to lose weight, it becomes more obvious.  A year ago, it was cloaked in blubber, but now it projects outward like an emerging arrowhead.  Doc tells me it's my  Xiphoid Process.  Who knew?
