Just popping in to say hi. It's been 7 months since I've logged in, and 3 years since I've posted anything.
I've yet to really start a career. I make money usually with freelance graphical work (in Photoshop and somewhat with 3D modeling and rigging) and I'm starting to take IT seriously. I do a bit of writing, and maybe it'll go somewhere if I keep at it. If not, it's still a fun creative outlet.
But probably the most interesting thing is that in the span of a year I've lost 200 lbs. I'm up to 210 lost in total (13 months) and a lot of my medical problems have disappeared. All through diet. Yes I was that overweight. I still have about 75 lbs to go in the next 9 months or so.
I still talk to Arcadia on a daily basis.
All-in-all, I'm very different from who I used to be. I suppose that happens to everyone, though.

Right on man! I got into fitness/nutrition about 4 years ago and love it now. It's always good to hear a story like that, keep it up

That's amazing to hear! Having lost about 60lbs over a few years a while back I know how hard that was, so 200 is a massive achievement. Keep it up!

Sitting here waiting for an oil change and randomly thought about this place.
Going on 30 years old now. I'm the COO of the biggest ecommerce firm in Brooklyn. Making a very nice living.
Married for just over a year and have a little girl on the way.
I'm glad to see everyone is doing well. I wanna hear from Sheep and Iridium!

Yup, I'm still around, working in finance in London. Married almost 7 years already!
Would be good to know what Sheep's up to these days, it's been probably 10+ years since I last heard from him (that's pretty scary in itself). Anyone know how to get in touch with him?

Hello all I'm running engineering at a startup in San Francisco now. My boyfriend and I just bought a house here, and we have a dog. I'm 29 now. Great to see all of you!

Update time. Working in retail to pass the time and get some extra scratch while I tend to the bigger picture. It's the holiday season so the hours are plentiful for a while and taking up most of my time, but after the new year I'm going to shift to something a bit more serious.
I'm up to 250 lbs lost, now. Still plugging away, though it's starting to slow down.
PROGRESS!

How the fuck do I remember that your username was Fettboy?
Were you just preemptively a fetty wap fan almost 2 decades ago?
Still here in Washington. Miss you fuckers.

I'm living and working in Toronto. I'm going to be a licensed lawyer in Ontario in about 10 days, which is pretty exciting.
This meet up was a really good time. We really hit it off the bat, and it was like we've been friends for a long time.

Do you do lawyer stuff now?
