User blog:Alekswithak/Follower Carrying Capacity Issue

I use Lydia as my primary follower, and have dismissed her a few times. However, with every subsequent "hiring", I've noticed that she is able to carry less and less. I've tried removing things from her inventory, but that doesn't seem to help. It's gotten to the point where I'm unable to give her anything to carry or use beyond what I've given her and left in her inventory (one lousy Elven Bow). Has anyone else had this problem? Is there something I can do, or should I just wait for a patch are use another Housecarl from hereon?
