Hi all, I get severe back pains after moderate activity. It Sucks!! Anyone else get this or know the cause or anything i can do to relieve this. Im trying to get my walking in but the pain after only several minutes makes it impossible. Im a week out btw. Thanks.

Hello Everyone, First of, this forum is lovely i have been reading this forum since before i decided to be sleeved. Very inspirational, and just got the courage to do a post and introduce myself. So here it goes... Im a guy, rather young, 19 years old. I started this journey last August 2011 weighing 417lbs. Bad i know. I decided on the sleeve because i am young and want to live a rather normal life. I decided to see if my insurance would cover it before i go on the route of self pay. So i found out it was and was referred almost immediately by PCP to kaiser SSF. With some bumbs in the road, i had my orientation this past february and weighed in at 402. Through the following months i stuck with the diet plan strictly and on Surgery day 6/11 i weighed in at 357lbs. So i am now a week out and still having pains but am very happy so far. So there is my brief journey so far...
