Take it easy. Pain that bad means your body needs to rest and recover. Heat therapy as others have suggested is good. So is massage to work out any knots. Take a day or two off, then try some LIGHT exercises. If the pain persists for several days, you may need to see a doctor, since that may mean it could be something more serious. For now, though, just rest and see how you feel afterward.

I agree with blue42down. Don't feel absolutely obligated to exercise. If you are injured, exercising can make it worse, and in the long run you will end out being out of the game longer if you hurt yourself more. A day or two of rest to let your muscles heal and avoiding a more serious long term injury is more important than meeting your weight loss goal/calorie burn for the week. Eat a little less if you have to. I have had weeks where I've been sick or injured for a couple of says, but still lost weight.

I agree with alternating the cold and the heat to the worst areas...when I was having tons of back issues my chiropractor had me walk, yep, walk. The best thing for back pain is sometimes a nice massage! I'd really not push it with the ST for awhile, but gentle stretching might be helpful. Hope you are feeling better soon, sounds like WAY too much activity for just a short span of time!!! Report Inappropriate Comment |

Sounds like Cody owes you a little TLC for your back.  Don't feel like you absolutely 100% have to exercise. Resting an injury is far more important as pushing too much could injure it further, especially since it's hard to tell if it hurts worse at that point from just being sore or from being pulled wrong. Definitely use the ice (and heat) and put as little stress on it as you can. If you're worried about the weight loss, simply look at how many calories you normally burn and are missing, divide that out over the next several days and adjust your food and activity (once your back feels better) to balance it out. Also, try to make sure that what you are eating includes plenty of healthier foods - things like calcium-rich greens and lean proteins - to help your body heal. Report Inappropriate Comment |

Make sure you use ice too. Heat to relax the muscles, but ice to calm down the inflammation that happens. Do a 20 min on, 20 min off kinda deal and alternate heat and ice. I would just take it easy instead of trying to do something while you are in pain! If you are not better in a few days maybe see a chiropractor?

Make sure you are lifting properly. Not using your back to lift and if it's hurting too bad you can use a back brace to help. Try a heating pad to loosen the muscles or a really hot shower. Most of all try to rest. You probably just strained it, but you never know unless you go to a doctor. Good luck to you! Hope you feel better!

What a change. I too, started out around 330 lbs., 328 to be exact. I started walking for exercise when I got to about 280 lbs., about where you are now. I can identify so well with your journey. It's those small steps that make GIANT changes in your life!
