I know if i loose this weight it will help by back and hips and i know it and that is one reason i am trying to loose it.i have cut down on my food intake and i know that is one thing you have got to do.I drink a lot of water and i know that in itself will help. I have got to start my walking program and i know that will help it too. I will post more later Hope all has a Nice Day.
