Knee Pain 101 {Weight Loss, Exercise, Sleep}
The relationship between pain, weight gain, lack of exercise and lack of sleep is well established. I speak from experience when I say that I definitely gained weight after my injury because I was exhausted from constantly waking up at night because I either moved my knee the wrong way or it just started throbbing. I also know that lack of energy and being so tired all the time makes any kind of exercise a chore. Lack of sleep affects so many things and is a major part of a crazy weight gain cycle, especially when you add pain to the mix.
