there i was, minding my own business, riding my yamaha road star 1600 home from work when i was placed into close proximity to a mother of 3 or 4 "charming" little children when she decided that whatever it was that they were doing in the back seat was far more important than watching where she was going. i have had numerous surgeries and injections and such since but nothing has stopped the pain. my plan is document a couple of things...#1 being a diary of pain. not all pain is the same, not all pain is constant from day to day, or hour to hour. what helps? what hurts? perhaps keeping a journal will help me to understand myself. i don't know. perhaps this is just retarded, perhaps not. and #2, since that day i have steadily gained weight. over 100lbs. my wife and i are just about to join weight watchers and i am going to try and take a photo a day of myself, as well as post a weekly weigh-in video. will this affect my daily pain? i don't know, i'd like to hope so, but for real - i hurt at 200lbs, and i hurt at 310lbs. so i don't really have a great amount of hope in that, i'd just like to have one thing that i can take control of, you know? i know i need another background...i don't know why the page took my pic and rotated it....odd.
