All these opinions/stories have been a great read. Thanks.

The thing that annoys me the most is when people tell you to get on with your life, stop complaining, get a job and all that. It's actually only a few people within my family that say this but its still frustrating. Why would I give up my favourite sports? Football, skiing, water-skiing and all that. why would i give up my passion? Funny when people in my family say that they've put up with me for over a year now.. how selfish. Ah well, I've just learnt to laugh smile

Definately the hope of getting back to these sports is a huge motivation for giving the diet another crack! Especially since the skiing season is coming up! smile

On a positive note, AS has definately changed my character and way of thinking in a positive way. I'm a hell of a lot more open minded and socially aware of all these things.

Good luck guys,
Seb
