I'm Andi, 29 and I am a huge RPG/boardgame/Magic the Gathering player. Mostly old World of Darkness games, Shadowrun and Scion. Also play tested some games including Mutants and Masterminds. I play a lot of Arkham Horror (HUGE H.P Lovecraft fan), MTG and Ascension. I have never LARPed and don't plan on it But I am nerdy enough that I do have dice in my purse at any given moment. You never know when a random game might appear ^_^ One of my Xmas presents to myself will be a shiny, new XBOX 360!

I have lost 7 of the 70 I plan on losing and my final goal will put me at 135. I do couch to 5k and have a 5k coming up in almost a month!

HI! My name is Melissa and I'm a 27 year old female. I really enjoy playing RP and MMORPG games. My goal is to get back down to 130lbs and so far I have lost 13.

Helloes!

I am Heather (gamer and stage name: Anex). I'm a 27 year old American living in France. I am from San Antonio, Texas. I always get asked why I am living in France (usually by French guys who then stop talking to me when I answer them), so I am in France because I am married to a French guy. We met in 2002 on EverQuest (I know, I know! xD).

So as I said, I am a misplaced American who loves video games, but I also love metal. I was singing in a Melodic Death Metal band for a while and am now looking for a new band (musical differences.. -sigh-)

I first started wanting to lose weight because I have a hard time finding clothes here in France. The girls are shorter (I'm 5'7") and generally very thin with the figure of a pencil (no butt, no hips). I am half-hispanic and cursed with the lower body of one. -_-
Not finding clothes in my size is a constant downer and the sizes at the store stop at 42 (US size 10). I am usually 44.. (about a 12). I'm currently 172 lbs (ugh) and want to get down to 140 lbs (or less).

While singing in a band I also wanted to lose weight to feel less embarrassed when on stage and having people take pictures and stuff.. I picked up Your Shape Fitness Evolved 2012 and it helped a bit, but this summer I fell off the wagon and have to start ALL OVER again >.<

As for video games, I am a member of PMS clan (I know some of the girls are on this site, they are why I joined) and mostly play MMORPGs and music games, though an occasional FPS.

Right now I am mostly playing Skyrim (working on all achievements for xbox 360) and Rocksmith (I want to learn guitar, plus there are 2 in my house so why not?) with the occasional Rock Band because I post youtube videos of my singing in the game.

There's my blog link for more info

Hi all!

I'm Sil, 31 from the UK. I've played video games when I was 8 and started with an Atari and half a dozen games I didn't even understand what the goal of them was (ski-hunter; I didn't realise I could shout things so just skied into them >.<).

Now I own a DSlite, Nintento Wii (only being used for bbciplayer lately), PS3 and my beloved PC.
I love fantasy/RPG games, horror games and mmo's. I guess I'm a sucker for anything Blizzard an Bioware makes, though I do run around in The Secret World and Guildwars 2 now. I also want to get back into playing more games on my PS3, but I haven't found a game yet that I'm over the moon for. So any suggestion is welcome ^^

My goal is to get back to weighing 145 lbs and be a bit more active (so not constantly vegging with my games) and to wear a Psylocke outfit for Halloween 2014.

Also always looking for friends on this journey! Especially gamers, so feel free to add me!!

Hello, I am Mary :flowerforyou: 34
I game a little bit bit not as much as I use to I have played WoW and Combat Armes and facebook sucks the time right out of me hehe :laugh:
I would like to tone more then anything but I do have some weight I need to drop most of it in my belly I use the fact that I have had 3 children but youngest is 11yrs old so can't really say that anymore.
I love to sit and chat with friends and because of games like WoW most of my friends do not live anywhere near me soo I stay in a lot lol
OK I think that will do it if there is anything else you would like to know just ask :happy:

I'm Debbie, just rejoined after a few years' absence.

43, female. About 7 years ago I lost 50 pounds over 10 months. I need to now re-lose 25 of it, so that's why I'm here. I've started running again, and lifting, and need to keep it up/do more.

I used to play pen-and-paper DnD a lot, but the last few years have been mostly WoW and some SWTOR thrown in out of boredom. My husband and I have just migrated back to a guild with friends from a previous guild, so MoP is fun for us right now.

Who are you! - Ambar or Chickie

Walk on the Beach? Sure.. Love the beach since I live by it

Games: I was an avid World of Warcraft Raider for about 5 years.. In between expansions, I played LOTRO, Warhammer, Conan online, and a few not worth mentioning, and then back to Wow. I also love Borderlands, Dead Island, and Assassin's Creed. BUT currently I am addicted to Guild wars 2. So that is me in a nut shell.. Im an Accounting chick near L.A. that loves to eat, and play video games lol Although Eating has changed a bit, my game playing won't lol. I noticed someone mentioned board games, and so I'll chime in. : Settlers of Cataan, and Munchkin Adventure are my FAVS

Hello all,

My name's Gordon. I'm a 25 year old male student (currently on break, will resume in the spring).

I'm currently ~178 lbs. Last November I was about 265+ lbs and reached a point where I was ready to change my eating and exercise habits and lost approximately 78 lbs so far. Currently I do a mixture of weight lifting, cardio, and roller hockey for exercise and do my best to stay within my daily calorie goals.

As for gaming--I've pretty much been playing games my whole life. For consoles I've previously owned an NES, SNES, N64, PS2, XBOX and XBOX360. Also played plenty of computer games in my time--spanning many genres, from FPS to RTS, RPGS, MMOs, Flight Sims, Racing, etc.. Spent many hours in MMO's like 10six, Shattered Galaxy, SWG, POTBS, WOW, and many more.

Current gaming fixations are Minecraft, Faster than Light, (soon) Natural Selection 2, APB, Guild Wars 2, and every once in a while L4D2.

Nice to meet you all!

edit: i tipped the post onto the next thread. woohoo!

Hi all. I'm a 33 year old gamer...yes I've been gaming since the original NES and Atari I started losing weight on a different site in August starting at 255 and jumped to MFP this week because it has a lot more active posters. I'm down to 239 now from 242 earlier this week so I think MFP is helping.

My tastes in games cover a wide range. When I have time I love RPGs like Reckoning, and FPS-RPGs like Borderlands. I also play Halo, Skyrim, and some car racing games, i.e. Need for Speed. I play mostly on XBox but have some PS3 games as well. My gamertag is Dalavar Wolfe on both consoles if you see me online.

Name is George, from MA. Started MFP at 246 lbs now down to 226 looking to keep going to 160. Avid single player gamer, love stories and the characters that keep them going. Don't have a whole lot of time for gaming these days but getting back into it again. Love Xbox Games, big fan of PlayStation games. HUGE sucker for Pokemon games. Favorite game to this day is Ocarina of Time, a very very close second would be the Mass Effect series.

One of my big goals is getting below 200 lbs, once I do I'm rewarding myself with a Master Sword/Hylian Shield Tattoo for my forearm!!!!

I'm 32 years old, from the UK, and recently a WoW quitter, after years and years... (sigh) I'm a PC gamer for the most, although at the moment I can't seem to get into anything new. Old Total War games and a bit of Skyrim is all I'm playing right now.

I'm recovering from several years of low mood, bad health, eating disorder relapses and weight gain. I've lost c. 50lb this year, but still have quite a bit to go, too. Also dumped cigarettes and started exercising, and playing less is part of my "healthy life" thing, too; so no more mmo's for me. Still, games good.

Wow I did all my typing in the Locked Forum how DUH oh me!!

Anyway, I was saying, My name is Chris and I am a 43yo Single Father. I am working in Afghanistan 2 months on 2 months off and I play WoW as much as I can when I am home and have my kids (when they are sleeping mainly) .

I am living in Augusta, GA and I am Very happy I found this group!

I am looking to make friends not only here but hopefully in my local area AUGUSTA, Georgia

If anyone is interested feel free to send me an invite!!

I look forward to chatting with you all and making some new friends!!
