Tight, unstretched hamstrings are often the culprit for lower back pain. Mine get like concrete if I don't stretch them, and without even knowing it, tight hamstrings will cause you to push your pelvic area forward and slump over a bit. If you're working muscles you haven't in a long time, stretching this area is SUPER important. Look up some good hamstring stretches and do them before and immediately after your workout. It'll not only help the back pain, but will make standing up straight come more naturally.
I agree with SP...ditch the pills. If you're on a good nutrition plan, and are exercising daily....you most certainly don't need the diet pills. They might give you quicker results, but if you want LASTING results, do it the natural way.
Good luck to you!!
