I've been living in Sydney for the last few days, and will be here for a few more weeks, working on the Sydney-Berkeley Driving Team's DARPA Grand Challenge entry.
I have to say that I've been on this new Australian diet. I don't know what it is, that makes it work, but the results speak for themselves. Before leaving for Oz, I weighed myself and came in at around 194.5. However, stepping on a scale here put me in at 88.0 even.
Not only that, but my biking speeds have improved dramatically. I averaged about 11/hr on my trips to/from Berkeley and my house, but here my biking velocity regularly clocks in somewhere around 18-19.
That's so awesome! I recommend everyone going on the Australian diet as well.
