Apparently this is common after rapid weight loss. Our bodies haven't adjusted to carrying the newer us. I was hurting so badly I started to see a chiropracter. It is helping. I am also working very hard on my posture. I had learned to slump over with my weight as I sat in my chair at work. Hope you feel better soon.

Patty, I am going throught he same thing. I feel like a failure because I have not lost 100 lbs yet. I lost 85 and have been the same weight for the past few months. I completely understand how you feel. I wish I knew how to jump start our engines again. Don't give up because no matter where you are today, it's still a better place than you were a year ago. We need to stop beating ourselves up over what the scale reads. Think of how much better you feel. Hang in there, I know we'll start losing again! Hugs Allison

That's awesome! I wish I had neighbors that would've done it for me when we moved in a year ago! Great job! Allison

I so feel your pain! I use to have pain in my ankles and feet but now that's gone and I have been dealing with this damn back! It truly does suck! I hope you start to get some relief soon. The only thing that helped me was resting my back, prednisone and pain meds. By the end of the day I too walk like a 90 year old woman. No need to worry you are NOT the freak of the bunch! Allison

Actually, my sciatica is tremendously improved, but I did want to respond to you about it. I think I said this recently to someone else here, but once you have that problem, it you have it. My little brother has always been very fit and athletic, but when he gets a sciatic attack, he's crippled with it just like I am. I'm not sure why it's hurting you more now, though, other than your new body getting used to new movements. Maybe you could consult a PT? Or ask your doc for a scrip for water therapy, if there's anything nearby. I found that to be very helpful. Sciatica sucks. It's SOOOOOO painful! Hope you feel better. Lisa
