Well, we made it to 2009. You know what that means! Yes, it's time for resolutions. I am all about averting the back pain that gets in the way of what I choose to do. So along with a few suggestions on how to tame the beast, take a look at my article entitled Obesity and Back Pain. It explains how being overweight may contribute to your pain. Hopefully, it will fuel your motivation to get to and stay at a healthy weight.
Next year, smoking and back pain! (Think intervertebral disks.)

How interesting! My resolution is just what you describe above, although it was for more, let’s say… personal reasons, than to help my back. However, as it turns out, I’ve been developing some back pain in the recent years as well, so I’ll use that as further motivation to take this resolution to completion.
Good luck with it!
