    Maybe if I have to ask, then I don't do that type of game...but what game are you talking about?

    By gaming I mean anything associated with video games. I personally have a passion for all types of games: arcades, computer, consoles, handhelds, etc. I guess since I usually speak more figuratively it may seem confusing. If you check my profile you'd get it.

    Are you one of the dreaded lot of us who are WoWers?

    Well since you are a gamer, why not use them to help get into shape? That is what I am doing. I am using 4 different games on the xbox (w/kinect) and the wii to help with the exercises. Gym is not an option at the current moment. The games I am using are:

    Wii:
    My Fitness Coach
    Gold's Gym Cardio Workout

    xbox (w/kinect):
    The Biggest Loser Ultimate Workout
    Zumba fitness

    I also have DDR and Dance Central...they are purely for fun, but also gets the heart pumping :-)

    @ spanglemagnet, WoW is one thing I cut out in college, I just didn't have enough time to really immerse myself into it. My problem would be my ADD mentality of always having to be playing something. I usually get home and jump on a handheld while I'm cooking and stuff, then move to my computer and play some Diablo 3 then jump onto my xbox and play a few hours of Fifa, Skyrim & Battlefield.

    @ naptasticDiva, the active kinect games are great ways to include gaming into your healthy lifestyle. I also like to place Dance Central, specially with a group. Its a good time while be active.

    I'm a gamer too which, unfortunately, has contributed to my size over the years!

    Wish I could dedicate the amount of time I spend grinding to actually losing my weight. ;)

    i'm a short attention span gamer. I lose interest quickly, so i've played pretty much every mmo out there at some point, and I have a big stack of games for the wii, ps2 and 360.

    360 is where its at. Haven't played much lately and let my gamertag go silver (busy with work!), but I used to play FPS like BF3 and Halo, as well as the standard RPG and FPS/RPG hybrids :]

    WoW...

    Madden

    MW3

    I am shockingly able to keep up my new lifestyle and incorporate WoW into it.

    The trick is learn to pvp... Raiding just takes too much time and it is very easy to get immersed in doing nothing but eating, waiting for fight explanations, wiping and waiting...

    pvp .... get in get out get your points get your kicks and just farm while waiting for bgs/arena ... Or just world pvp all day...

    Im a gamer, feel free to invite me.

    I stopped playing WoW about a year ago. Currently Playing SWToR and got back into playing Counter Strike: Source. Been dedicating most of my hours to the RL burning calorie grind in the last month or so.

    I quit WoW awhile back, but I'm thinking about playing again. I would love to learn how to incorporate it into my new lifestyle. I also play games on XBOX. I stick to games like BioShock and Fallout. I've recently started Skyrim. Can't wait to see how that goes. Please feel free to add me. As far as myfitnesspal and weight loss go: Still a level 1 Newbie. :)
