    I am! Love video games!

    I have made myself a rule though... I can only play my 3DS while working out and I can only play one of the other systems in the house if I go for a run or use the elliptical.

    One thing I've done in the past, for electronic gaming anyway, is any time you die, are arrested, fail a quest, mission, etc... do 15 reps of something. I have had sessions of Grand Theft Auto that leave me more sore than bootcamp :)

    This is a fantastic idea!!! I am definitely going to do this.
    I play Halo online like there's no tomorrow. I definitely think I'll start punishing myself for my deaths in between games with push-ups or sit-ups.
    Thanks for the idea!

    I would say if you don't want to save up the cals for those nights or have those night be cheat nights then, fruits and veggies are a good idea (no dipping sauce though =(

    I would just save up cals for that though, it sounds like a tun of fun, oh also Pop corn isn't to bad AT ALL

    Gamer here.. though not as hard core as I used to be. DDO is still my game to play. I'm on Ghallanda if anyone else plays (PM for guild name and characters)

    WOW! that's so AWESOME! I'm totally going to do this!

    My husband and I both play Black Ops 2. I used to play a lot when I didn't have a job. I was being too lazy and playing for hours a day while my husband was at work. I don't play during the day anymore, but the two of us occasionally play at night together after dinner.

    We are HUGE gamers, of all kinds.

    We tend to do Pirate Booty, Veggie Straws, the lowest calorie tortilla chips (whatever we find when scanning the store) and salsa, soft pretzels. We also make sure to work out and burn more before having a night out so we don't do damage!

    I play strategics games: Settlers of Catan, Zombie Dice, Munchkin, Tsuro. etc

    I usually make that night my cheat night or bring my own snacks

    Catan is really fun, so is Munchkin.. I also just picked up Wiz War.. Lots of fun and all around good game..

    Used to play Magic: The Gathering. Quit because I got tired of keeping up with how rule changes affected my playstyles and deck strategies. Also used to be hardcore into Battletech tabletop back in the '90s. Quit because when you play games that have require THAT much time investment and thought to play, people tend to just... not. PC gamer as well. I play Skyrim, BF3, Planetside 2, Torchlight 2, and Mechwarrior Online.

    Yeah I stopped playing Magic a few years back.. That game should just be called Arms Race..

    I am a gamer of all types.

    Currently I just finished FarCry 3 on PS3 and am working through Assassin's Creed 3 on X360. For PC I am caught up in Hotline Miami, love that soundtrack!

    Christmas was good to me by bringing Zombie Dice and Zombies for some good old fashion table top gameplay.

    I tend to drink more when we play which also hits the waistline in a negative fashion. For snacks we like low fat pretzels and mustard.

    ZOMBIES!!! Is lots of fun.. Good table top game.. How is Far Cry 3? I heard it has RPG aspects to it.. Thought it was a FPS.

    Board games a plenty! 7 wonders, Dominion, Forbidden Island, Roll Through the Ages are my current favourites!

    At the moment my boyfriend and I are playing a lot of the new Star Wars card game and the new X-Wing minitures game - he is a massive star wars nerd and is converting me to the dark side!
