Back Ache and 5 weeks out

[Starfish17 2]

Hello,

I am just about 5 weeks out. For the last week I have found that my back aches a lot more than it did. The front left side of my stomach area feels like I have done 1000 crunches. I just want to know if others have felt this. Maybe my back is over compensating for the stomach muscles???

Thanks:)

Hello!

After surgery, I had back pains and it was due to me favoring/holding my stomach. Doc told me that once my tummy heals, my back will feel better and he was right.

This too shall pass!

Keep up the good work.

Thank you! I see my surgeon next week, but wanted to see what others have experienced.

Sometimes when you lose a lot of weight your back needs to be adjusted. Mine hurt after I dropped about 30 pounds, went and got adjusted and I felt a ton better. I asked my surgeon and he was fine with it:) just an idea!!!
