BigBallBellyGirl:
I have had knee issues as well since high school. I had less pain when, for a bit, I dropped below 200 pounds. Because I'm over 500 and plan to stay this big, I've started doing little things like short daily walks to mitigate some of the aches. This new routine plus stretching seems to help, albeit not eliminate, discomfort in my back and knees.


This is what I was talking about earlier. There are things you can do at home to manage the issue. It may not completely fix it, but you can manage it.

Losing weight can be a big help since it takes pressure off the knees. But if that's not something you want to do excise can help. It strengthens your knees and keeps then lubercated.

On that note, water exercises can help too - especially since the water helps take some of the weight off.

My knees was messed up from previous events before I got real big. My left knee was hyper exstended 30 degrees past the knee cap. And my right knee took a hit when a car merged in to me when I was on a motorcycle. I need to use braces to keep them from moving out of place at times. And is one of the reasions why I had to quit gaining and started loosing weight. So knee braces will fit right.

I love swimming and stretching in the water. My membership is lapsed now, but a couple of years ago, I joined a gym exclusively for access to a heated indoor pool. Renewing might not be such a bad idea, just to keep my body moving.

Morbidly A Beast:
This vague Covid conspiracy stuff and lumping it in with routine knee care is really dumb

Weetabix:
Yeah well we have to be vague about that subject because of censorship. It's an example of how the whole medical industry is corrupt. They knew better but went ahead anyway.


If the rollout of the COVID vaccine is the only reason why you don't trust the medical industry, then maaaaaaaybe that's a you problem.

Because you could have talking about literally anything else. But nope. You had to bring up COVID.

Again.

And that's never ended well for you.

As we say in my neck of the woods, bless your heart.

A heated pool? Girl, I wish I had one of those were I live. I'd never leave during the fall and winter months.

Absolutely loved it. Surprisingly, it often wasn't that busy. I guess swimming just doesn't occur to a lot of people as an activity in the cold months. I definitely got my money's worth on the pool alone though. I only didn't renew because we had some unexpected expenses and were cutting extras at the time.

Munchies, you're full of strawman arguments like "If Covid is your only reason...". I gave it as an example we're all familiar with. It's probably the biggest medical scam you people have inflicted on us. MMR and Autism is pretty big and ongoing. Past scams like Thalidomide and the more recent Oxicontin thing. Every time you and your clan of witch doctors claim it's "Safe and Effective" and later it turns out to be really bad. Pfizer were fined even more than Alex Jones who said there was something fishy about Sandy Hook so we know what they did was really really bad.

The reason you can quote so many official sources is because the corruption goes to the very core of western society.

I can tell you my wife was seriously harmed by the NHS and we won the case. 150 other people are suing for same thing.

Any good person in the medical establishment is either aware of the corruption and fighting it or is unaware of it. As for it's looking like you're either unaware or you're one of the bad guys. Quoting establishment lies at us looks bad either way.

You cannot develop autism, silly goose. It's something you're born with. I'm autistic. This is something I know about personally. Autism also exists in unvaccinated kids as well as existed before vaccines where a thing.

Also ... it seems that you didn't read a single thing I said. You're adorable.

Sucks about your late wife going through what she went through. She shouldn't had to experience that. But opting out of things that have been proven to work is an overcorrection. And I am saying this has someone who has been both helped and harmed by the medical establishment. That's why I took the time to educate myself. Better to decide when to listen to a doctor and when to ignore them.

All that aside, I have yet to see a single source backing up your earlier claims. Specifically the ones I disagreed with. You keep lashing out and talking about unrelated things. Which means your sources are "trust me bro" and "I pulled it out my ass"

Bless your heart you sweet little thing.

Just a note on swimming, I can sure believe it’s the best exercise a larger person can do. My wife can swim like a fish and enjoys it immensely when she can find a good lake or reservoir in the summer. I can’t swim too well and just enjoy walking my around in water that doesn’t go over my head 😁
