I've been slacking too long and need any motivation I can get. I also started a blog that explains a little why I have started my weight loss program and where I'm at now... I'm always looking for friends, so please add me...

    Nice costume. Question? Are you trying to lose 70 lbs by Halloween or just in general to be able to fit in that costume?

    I lost my weight almost entirely from jogging. I put myself on a half marathon training program. You will lose weight if you do this. I love Yoga too. It is a great way to change the way your body looks and how you hold yourself. I do Xbox Kinects as well and I actually burn a lot of calories playing Dance Central. It is fun so it doesn't feel like I am “working out”.

    I have a rough deadline of May 2013 to lose the full 70.. but I won't argue if it's sooner or later. I don't want to put an unrealistic goal on myself.

    The costume will take time to be made, but I hope to be able to make one and join a costuming club so I can do charitable events doing something I would love.

    Always glad to meet more geek girls! And part of my motivation to lose is costuming, too. :-)

    Sent you friend request--we can totally do this! :D
  • I'm pretty geeky myself, and have a gamer/cosplay obsessed 10 year old son that has recently demanded I learn how to sew so he can turn me into his very own costume sweatshop. I added you.
  • Hi,
    I am a bit of a science geek. Awesome costume! Feel free to add me!

    I'm behind you all the way =). You have 100% of my support. I like how one of your motivation is to dress up and use a sexy costume. I can relate to that because I also want to cosplay =)
