I haven't updated this in forever, but wanted someplace to whine briefly about my last doctor's appointment. I've been having this deep, generalized soreness in my knees periodically over the last month or so - typically on the day or in the days after I play sports. I was worried it was indicative of some serious problem, but the doctor disagreed, suggesting it was a combination of my own lack of physical conditioning and my being too heavy. His medical advice? Don't play sports on pavement, get better shoes, and lose 30-40 pounds (which, while technically in my 'healthy weight' BMI range, would mean dropping my weight to about 170 pounds and strikes me as a bit excessive). A here I was just looking for him to suggest a knee brace or something. Time to cut out the snacking, I suppose...
