I agree, fully. But also: look at the guy

I feel like you should be made Prime Minister of Soccer, tasked with making broad statements of policy about the sport its owners/investors, players, and fans.

You'd rule the game fairly and with grace, but more, with a solid historical grounding that would lend authority to your pronouncements.

I make my own, so for me, thinking about pizza means thinking the process, not just the taste YMMV.

I lost the weight while cooking and eating what I like. But I cut my portions and mostly limited to 1300 cal/day. One good holiday meal could cost me a week of progress, but it's a marathon, etc.

The surgery is almost an afterthought. It's the PT that matters. It's up to you to make that new hip functional.

To do my knee, my doc required my BMI be under 42, so I lost 70 pounds last year. I'm glad he did. I'm invested in the process, and skinnier me rehab is easy. Still losing weight, too!

That’s exactly what I’ve heard. If you don’t do the PT, don’t waste your time doing the surgery.
I gained a lot of weight before my surgery because I could hardly walk & was stress eating because I couldn’t walk. FAFO, LOL
This is two weeks after surgery & got my staples out.

13 years later, and I still dream of the night I was a princess with my grandfather. Mardi Gras is so much more than a holiday. #nolasky #nolatwitter

Sometimes etymological drift creates a fresh, better use for a word. Sometimes it kills precision. There are many ways to say a place was devastated or obliterated; only one to say a population was decimated. Alas, you sound like the sort who think it fine to have people evacuated in an emergency.

Even Philly’s crosswalks have hoagiemouth. We found out why for youse. β€œIt feels like one of those many only-in-Philly things, of course even our crosswalks have a thick Philly accent.”

In my latest column, I dig into why Philadelphia's crosswalk audio announcements come wit the Philly accent.

β€œThere’s not been a single person I’ve talked to that’s like β€˜Oh yeah, that makes complete sense,’” said the reader who tipped me off.

Pix or it didn't happen. 🀣

But assuming it did, congratulations, and I hope you have a quick and relatively easy recovery and rehab. Believe everyone that told you that PT is the key!

Isn’t it wonderful to live in this era?
I had total hip replacement surgery 3 weeks ago. It’s slow going but we’ll get there.

After knee replacement surgery in late January, I'm gratified by my progress.

I've extended my PT, and my gym time has unexpectedly morphed into 1/2 rehab and 1/2 full-body training, which I'm really enjoying. I've been limited for 15 years.

It's thrilling to be strong and mobile again!

Well, just keep thinking of how great your gams will look when it's all over. Throw in a haircut and a few cucumber waters and you might as well be at a spa.

Also, "workout people" might be the nicest name ever used for the folks you're referencing.

It feels like a scrotum when I poke it I’ll be honest

I’m used to regular estim and all the exercises

But my patellae at baseline can almost flip over completely so I guess I needed the tape stability today

You got tape? All I've gotten is 7 weeks of stretching and extending and squatting, with an occasional e-stim sesh. First thing Monday, I'm demanding tape!

How about you? How's rehab coming?

My PT taped me today for the first time and the middle of my knee is so wrinkly I keep poking it.

Most people also won’t finish your 500-word article. So write at whatever length is appropriate for the subject.

Doing my first big LEGO build and I f’ed up and had to tear stuff up in order to rebuild.

I was frustrated and in the depths of my rage my husband, a huge LEGO fan, said: β€œSee there are more lessons here than just LEGOs.”

He may not be wrong but he may also get a brick in the face.
