Back Pains...

Hello everyone! I was wondering if anyone else was experiencing lower back pains? I used to have a sore back when I was at my heaviest (like 287-292 lbs) and I though that losing weight would make them go away. They did for a while, but now they are back. I thought it might have been my Taebo workout. A friend who was a ballet dancer told me that losing a lot of weight rapidly can throw off your posture. Another friend just said that my abs were not strong enough. A third said my back pack was too heavy. I am planning on calling my doctor tomorrow, but just curious if I am alone in this or if it may be WLS related. Thanks, Jessie L.

I am having back pains also. I think mine is from trying to stand up straight now. Going from a DDD to a D my body has shifted. I catch my self still leaning foward then I stand straight. My poor back doesn't know whats going on.

Jessie, I am having the back pains as well. I have been to my family doctor about it twice. He too seems to think alot of it is because of the weight loss. I am hoping that when I start my physical therapy it will all go away. Melissa

I am right there with you. My severe back pain had sort of subsided when I first started losing, but now it is back with a vengence. I think a lot of it is the lack of ab muscle to support my back so I am working on that. I hope it works. Best of luck to you I know back pain is miserable! Alison
