If you're losing antifreeze somewhere sounds like you have bigger problems than just no heat.

not losing anti freeze, recently had radiator, hoses and thermostat replaced......I put antifreeze in thinking that would fix the problem.

Thermostat ?

There is a good chance that it’s a bad thermostat. The thermostat might not be closing properly. If the thermostat doesn’t close then you will get hot air, the coolant will cool, then it will rebuild slowly and you will get a small amount of heat and it will continue to do this.

How is your temperature needle? This should tell you if the thermostat is working properly.

temp needle seems to be working fine but I did notice that my rad fan has been coming on allot more than normal.

What you need to do is find out at what temperature the fan should turn on. Then start the car up and see when the fan actually comes on. It would be more accurate if you had a scanner which could get in the computer and display all the information digitally. With this you could see the exact temperature the fan turns on.
