It’s from a bulging disc. I recently just stopped going to physical therapy as the pain had significantly subsided and I started going to the gym. Now, the pain is back and it is worse than ever. Any suggestions?

I have chronic pain, and this last car accident only made the already chronic pain worse and more frequent. I am having a hard time getting back into exercise and had to switch therapists.
It’s not like I don’t try on my good days, but those rare days, I am usually trying to catch up with the household chores that I got behind in.
Sometimes I feel like I am not really living with this kind of pain, and that my husband does not understand. I saw a woman on t.v. and thought she was pretty and wanted to have pretty jeans and a form fitting shirt like her. He said her hips were too big, but I thought she looked nice. Then it got to be my hips are too big too. And there are other times he talks about me too. I know I could lose some weight, but how can I without starving myself, or is that what I should do? And how do I shrink my hip bones down so that I will be good enough?
