I have never been overweight in my life. For most of it, I was underweight. But the Lyrica (Neurontin before that) and lack of excercise due to the pain has put me into the almost obese category. I started Weight Watchers today, and my husband is joining me. We decided to make the dinners together, something we used to enjoy doing when I felt better and we prepared gourmet food.

I am also going to give Physical Therapy a try again but was unable to do much the last time as almost everything they tried with me caused pain flares lasting days. (Even pool therapy didn't work.)

In any case, I am going to try to take control of my weight, even though I have little control over my pain.

Take care all,
