What happened?

Hip labral tear and bone cyst
Recently learned that I have a labral tear and a cyst in the bone structure of the hip (diagnosed by contrast MRI). Yeah, I know, every medical situation is different, but have any of you experienced this? What was your treatment? Recovery time? (And no, I'm not relying on the MFP forums instead of a medical professional.…

Expanded workout opportunity
Let's say your normal lifting/running routine is about 50-90 minutes...but then you have a weekend when, for various reasons, your workout time could easily be several hours each day. You also have more rest time available too. How would you adjust your workouts for this opportunity?

Hip muscle tear (and bone cyst)
Recently learned that I have a tear in the muscle (labrum) and a cyst in the bone structure of my hip (diagnosed by contrast MRI). Yeah, I know, every medical situation is different, but have any of you experienced this? What was your treatment? Recovery time? (And no, I'm not relying on the MFP forums instead of a medical…

Why do so many ppl think [controversial topic]? (NOT DEBATE)
Greetings, I often hear from my friends, both close and not so close, that I should do (or not do) a certain thing that is controversial within a certain subset of society. Why is this such a common thing? What do you think (WITHOUT BEING RUDE OR DEBATING) on this? If you also do not do this certain thing, are you…

Looking for (fewer) Friends
I'm not new to MFP, (have been here for 425+ straight days), and I'm looking to have fewer friends on my FL. As of this morning, I have almost 70 which is far more than is healthy. So if you're currently on my FL and thinking about dropping me, now would be a good time to do it. I'm especially looking for friends to delete…

Dropping 10 pounds
I am on a 10 pound cut (having intentionally added 20ish pounds during the past year). Started by dropping 250 every couple of weeks from my previous bulking calories of 3000 to the point that I'm now at 2250. Am going to try from 2250, but may drop as low as 2000 if necessary. (I believe my TDEE is around 2500-2700.) But…

After watching "Bigger, Faster, Stronger" I'm juicing
I watched that documentary last night and I was so inspired. It's natural, no gimmicks, no pills, all real. Of course I will still train and eat lots of foods, however, I definitely want to incorporate juicing in between meals. I just love it, it's products you can buy in the pharmacy. Everything your body needs and craves…

Anyone else have this feeling lately in the forums?

Things for which you wish MFP would give strikes...
...but they don't. I'll start: Posts suggesting scale weight gain after 2ish weeks is because muscle weighs more than fat.

I'm in. Are you in?

Melters, feeders, and other characters
A few weeks ago, I was called a "melter" by someone on MFP. I think this is a term for people who lose fat "easily", or at least perceived to be able to. (In this specific case, it was likely meant to be derogatory...and I was called that because of my audacity to assert that most people can still lose weight even when…

What tools do you blame for making you fat?
Just curious.

Friends and family - I could care less
Just wanted to get this out there... My friends? I could care less. My family? I really could care less. Does anyone else feel the same way?

Christmas gifts
What are appropriate Christmas gift ideas for: The girl in the Seafood Dept who cooks my daily lunch fish? The sushi guy who prepares my daily sushi? Massage therapist? School teachers? Dance instructors? Neighbors? School bus drivers? And who am I forgetting?

Study: Quitting junk food may cause withdrawal symptoms
http://abclocal.go.com/wls/story?section=news/health&id=8920784 Haven't read the actual study. Interesting that the article seems to interpret "junk food" as "high fat". Hopefully the actual study itself is a little more specific.

1200 calories = more likely to have problems?
Has anyone else noticed that most of the "I have a problem..." threads are started by those with a 1200 calorie daily limit? Especially the "I can't stop snacking" and "I'm so hungry!" threads. Coincidence? Something to consider if you're currently struggling at 1200 calories? Or am I just imagining this?

To be clear...

Am I the only one...
...who, when the sushi guy gives me more than the usual amount of wasabi, considers it a personal challenge to eat all of it?

Coincidence?
Edit: nvm...let me try this again.

Do you ever...
...get that "not so fresh" feeling? It's a question that's been haunting me since the 1980s.
