Living with joint pain and then adding a knee injury is the cause of my weight gain. Over the years trying to learn to manage my pain, add some grief and this emotional coaster left me in a vicious cycle of pain = sedentary = weight gain = eat . End result from 5'3 and 135 lbs to 288 more than 2x my size.
