I'm right there with you! From about 1.5 to 2 months until around 3.5 months (a little bit still but it's mostly gone) My hips were KILLING me.. like the outside area of the hip joint region. My back just started out of nowhere a few weeks back, more 1 side than the other. Lots of muscle, joint and tendon changes happening as we lose weight, lots of folks don't realize that fat isn't just below the skin, it's around all our muscles, tendons, bones, ligaments, etc as protection and a buffer. So as we lose this visceral fat, things shift around more, that's one of the reasons why working out is important, because it tightens up those lose connections that are pressing on nerves causing the pain.

I'm with you too. As I lose weight I'm feeling new pains. I told my husband that maybe I'm no longer being held together by all my fat. As I move more, the pain is decreasing. Being overweight gave me a pretty good slouch. I am seeing a spine doctor that is helping me to regain my posture too.
