      Thanks Hectic. Wow, the word "Speedo" usually strikes fear into the heart of your average englishman. Here in France i've had to get used to them (you HAVE to wear the feckin things in public swimming baths) AND the Ermintrude bathing cap (I kid you not…I did draw the line at the flowery ones though). Swimming isn't quite so appealing as a result 😞

        In the past 12 months my life has changed significantly. I went from not really knowing what I wanted to do in school and at a Community College to studying sociology at The #4 university in the world (according to the most recent poll; only harvard, MIT and Oxford are above UC Berkeley), my girlfriend has been studying in Chile for the past 3+ months and I have been studying and reading more than I did in all of high school. Not to mention I have met and befriended many an individual from here at the IHF. You guys rock… Well, you guys and gals, gotta be inclusive!

          Seems like the last year, for me, is the first time 5-6 running, in which absolutely nothing has changed.  My immediate circumstances will be changing soon though, as I will make another attempt at moving.  Also, I'll be making more money than I ever have before after my two year review rolls around next month.  Giles and IH will take much of it… Also Also, soon, being a bonded notary public, I will notarize better than taco:

          hectic, that's good shit to hear man.  Swimming is a really awesome way to exercise.

          bertoni, congrats!  Getting that degree/diploma is a serious achievement, now get a job.  😉

          Well done all.  Keep 'em coming!

            DEP - I did Sociology too mate at Sussex Uni in the UK. Interesting stuff though I didn't read enough and spent FAR too much time playing pool and drinking guinness among other things. Keep up the good work man.
            Best regards from the land of Foucault and Durkheim.

            That was Easy - Had the same job for the last 5 years mate…could do with a change meself sometime soon (and some of your cash by the sounds of it ;))

              Hey bertoni, you must have hung out in Brighton, my home town. Good city.

                No way! Yeah I lived in Brunswick Place and was lucky enough to also live in the beautiful Brunswick Square….top floor, views of the sea and roof terrace. Brighton is a great city. London by the sea...the music, the diversity, the weirdness, oh and the smoked mackerel on the beach...I still miss it after 10 years away! My sister still lives there so I get back there now and again. You still live there?

                  Nah man, in Bristol now. Similar vibe but a bit more yokely. I went Brighton->London->Bristol - not too shabby.

                      In the absence of expressive bandwidth I am assuming (hoping!) that was sarcasm 😃

                            I don't want to rub it in to those who are struggling just thought I would share…

                            I lost more than 100lbs Dec 31, 2009 - Dec 31, 2010. That's right, it was my new years resolution and did it cold turkey. Shopping for clothes is alot easier and more fun when your size is readily available. I always had to look at the biggest sizes at the bottom of the piles 😃

                                  Glad you're here Nem… you make up for my lack of cool pics and attitude...

                                  Like this thread G, I'll chime in

                                  I lost some weight (though not as much as AFTRMTH, congrats big time there) which brings the extra benefit of having to buy new clothes... and I found IH along the way, I'm sure G has appreciated that...

                                  But more so my life is going to change soon. I'll turn 32 this summer and at the same time will finally be finished with postgrad training, been in school/training straight through basically my whole life, in July my family and I will move, start a new job, sell the house where we started our family, and within the same month will have our 4th child (the oldest won't yet be even 5...). So yeah, things they are a-changin' for me.

                                  Let's hear more

                                    From someone the same age as you and just starting on the first that is quite inspiring!

                                          tivo in the bedroom, sure it's great, but not once the wife starts filling the damn thing up with real housewives… just you wait

                                            Also In the past I couldn't bench press much at all like total weight 80-90 or so with a 55 pound bar.
                                            Now I can bench like 150 regularly 😃 5 X 10  ::) BTW I can bench 205 maxing out  😘
