in Introduce Yourself
Hello there!

I have been on MFP for a few years now but recently returned to finally reach my goal and I am looking for new friends.
So I am a nerdy goth who loves arts and crafts and gaming (LOTRO). I stopped losing weight after I moved to the UK from germany.. I just had to try all the new food lol its all bad btw ^^ but scrumptious. However I am looking for some support to keep me going and I want to help you to stick to your diet as well.

I would love to find some nerdy goths or nerds or goths or crafty people to stalk ^__^

    Hi,
    I'm definitely a nerd, wish I could be Goth and want to visit the UK :smile: I did my own Christmas cards this year with googly eyes and I play xbox sometimes, but only the easy kid games (except some Rainbow Six with my hubby) because I am not very good at them.
    I am brand new here. So far the food diary is painful to acknowledge (do I really eat that much chocolate??)... and so is the lack of exercises to add (does staring at a computer screen all day count??). But I am sure I will do better as it becomes glaringly obvious that my pants don't fit anymore.:embarassed:
    Good luck to you!

    Hi Tina,

    I absolutely know what you mean. Its so hard at first and you have to realize all the things you have been doing wrong but after a few weeks it gets easier and as soon as you start seeing the you dropping it encourages you to keep on going =D but I wish turning the computer on would burn calories xD

    Hi Nerdy;

    I am somewhat nerdy (director of IT) and think I'm too old (55) to be Goth. But I do own a Goth Black Les Paul electric guitar put out by Epiphone if that counts. I too came back here after doing OK without it for a while. But, now I really need to drop lbs.

    I would have done the same thing in a new living evironment. But good to have tools like this to motivate. I find just tracking helps.

    Anyone know how to set the total calorie goals? I have this running on PC's and my Android and I think i get it set and it seems to spontaneously go up! Not good for me!

    I'm a librarian so pretty far up there on the book-nerd scale. Don't play a lot of games, but know a lot about them by reading gaming webcomics :P I could definitely use some new friends on here too so feel free to add me if you want.

    Not so much a goth these days, was pre children in my teens/early twenties :)
    Played WoW and DDO and LOTRO (briefly) pre kids aswell, now I only try to make time for roleplaying! I read fantasy books, I knit, crochet and sew and I listen to metal, especially black metal. And I've moved from Norway to UK!

    Hey!

    I absolutely LOVE your hair! I haven't had mine pink in a while, but it was one of my favorite colors. But yeah....I'm a total nerd. I don't play much on the Xbox anymore except for CoD, and we JUST got a PS3, so all I have is Little Big Planet (which I love)...but I'm more of a PC gamer anyways. I play LoL, and I used to play WoW but just can't afford it right now. I actually just downloaded an N64 Emulator and a Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time ROM so that I could play it on my PC. Talk about nostalgia.

    I also spend WAY too much time curled up on the couch reading, and not nearly enough time working out...which is why I'm trying MFP. I'm engaged and we haven't set a date yet but we're thinking towards the end of 2014, and I have a lot of weight to lose before then!

    Edit: I also thought I would add, I am WAY too crafty for my own good. My closet is full of old clothes that don't fit anymore, and craft supplies. I crochet, paint, sew, and have more costumes (for cosplay and ren fests and such) then is probably good for me. lol.
