aching joints anyone?

ok i don't know if this is related to losing weight but since i really started losing alot of weight my back and joints have been killing me! what's up with that?

Hi Liz, I'm having the same problem, mostly with my lower back! It's awful...especially since pre-op I would take Motrin to help it, but now that's a no-no. I thought the aches were supposed to go away with weight loss??

Today is the first day since surgery that my back *hasn't* hurt. I'm so sick of this darned binder thingy. I washed it last night and let it hang to dry. I decided to go binderless today. In this 103 degree heat I felt wonderful without that thing. LOL I've noticed the more weight I lose the more "crunch" I hear in my knees. I'm hoping to lose about 40 more pounds and then I'll make an appt with my orthopedic surgeon. Unfortunately post-op my old standby, Naprosyn, is now a no-no too. * Cyndi *

My hips and back ache. At least we can still use Aspercreme and tylenol. Oh well Patti
