Sore joints

Does anyone else suffer from stiff joints since losing weight? I find it hard to sleep at times as my joints stiffen and can be quite sore. I have bought some cod liver oil capsules today - hoping it might help.

Anyone got any tips on anything else that might help? :smile:

    are you sure that it is joints which are stiff? and not muscles ?

    No, joints - at the moment my elbow is playing me up, other times it can be my shoulders and fingers.

    I am not sure how severe the pain or if it comes and goes but I have found that dehydration will make my body ache. I have found that sometimes the pain will be more localized than other times. My knees tend to hurt the most often as a sign of dehydration. This may not be applicable for you but hopefully it might help.

    Try using Glucosamine and Chondroitin - it's worked wonders for me!

    I saw Dr. Oz the other day say rubbing Tuna juice on joints alleviates pain. It had something to do with the Alpha-Omega 3 fats. Strangely enough, it works pretty well on my knuckles.
