    Helloooo! I just joined MFP so like I have no one in my friends list? So basically please add me. :)

    I'm 26 with a 7 month old, and my husband and I are both pretty darn nerdy. I like thinks like Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, The Hunger Games, Agents of Shield, Jane Austen books/movies, and playing Mario Kart and Smashbros. I was 212 after I had my son and as of saturday I was down to 185.4. Hoping to be 140-150 eventually! My favourite way to exercise is swimming laps but I also take walks, use the elliptical, and circuit the weight machines. I don't know anything about any real kind of strength training/heavy lifting but I've heard/read that it's really great to get into.

    ANYWAY. Feel free to add me!

    Hello all!
    I'm 23 years old and 159 pounds. Trying to get down to 140. I gained most of my weight 2-3 years ago in college when I was working on my thesis and student teaching. I just stopped taking care of myself but I'm slowly getting back.
    I'm a music teacher and I'm really into Star Wars, LOTR, the beach, and punk rock.
    My favorite ways to work out are running and swimming (I'm a swim instructor/coach during the summer!)

    Big fan of SPN (yes, I have endeavoured to watch all ten seasons and have succeeded so far), HP and LOTR, too! I'm 25 years old, 5"3, pretty small frame, and 86 pounds. 2 years ago, I wasn't on MFP, but I started to take note of what I was eating. I weighed 148 pounds then. I joined MFP recently to keep track of what I'm eating to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

    Hello! I've been on MFP for what seems like forever, just a couple months though. Looking for people in a similar boat who would like some motivation and support, and new friends! :D

    Also,

    I'm pretty great.

    And I love sarcasm.

    ....and Supernatural, and Harry Potter, and LOTR, and The Hunger Games.

    Also, I'm trying to break my addiction on binge watching Netflix......


    Anyone feel free to add!!!!

    @skinny_buddhaa Firstly, I love it that you just say 'I'm pretty great' - not enough girls say this about themselves, even if it is in a semi-joking manner :smiley:

    Harry Potter and Hunger Games <3 Can't wait for Mockingjay to be released! Also love cooking and baking, and find myself endlessly reading recipes for apparently no reason!

    I'm 5'10 and 24, and am at 58 kg/128lbs. Want to concentrate on maintaining now really; building muscle and cutting fat. Only just reached my goal weight so currently playing about with calories and my macros to see what works!

    Just started lifting a couple of months ago so I've got the basics and might be able to help @AmandaLeighisme :) x

    Hey everyone! I'm 20 years old, 5'2", currently at 135 (started at 155) and hoping to get down to a toned 120. Netflix is my boyfriend, lol. I have watched One Tree Hill and That 70s Show all the way through so far, and now I'm on Parks and Rec (only season 2, no spoilers! :wink: ) and of course Orange is the New Black (I'm going as Alex for Halloween lol).

    Feel free to add me all!

    This thread is fantastic!

    Ohh Supernatural, I love you so very much even though you hurt me... often. Also love The Hunger Games and Harry Potter. One of my life goals is to go to Orlando for Harry Potter World. Dream big, right? ;) Always looking for new Netflix shows to watch, so if you have any suggestions, I'll take 'em.

    I'm 25, currently living in Southern California, originally from Wisconsin. Man, do I miss it there. Started @ 262 and currently @ 235ish. I will warn you that I'm new at this, I doubt I'll have any good advice or tips. But I will like your accomplishments! I'll congratulate you for all your hard work! I'm not as desperate as I sound.

    I'm also not yet comfortable sharing my food diary. Yes, I realize it can help other people and others could give me advice. But if it fits into my calories, I'm gonna eat that fun-size candy bar, darn it! And I'd like to keep that private. :p

    Hi everyone! I've only just made an account here, and I hope it'll pave the way to finally meeting some fitness goals and getting some friendly support in the process.

    I love Supernatural, Harry Potter, LOTR, the Marvel universe, and a million other shows I've been too foolish not to finish watching before starting another series, like Game of Thrones, In the Flesh, The Walking Dead, etc, etc (Now I'm behind on EVERYTHING!) I do have a Pottermore but alas I've been very horrible about using it

    I'm 23, living in Santa Cruz, California. I'm 5'2 and my current weight is 137 but I'm looking to get some muscle and tone myself down to about 120.

    Nice to meet you all!
