  • I haven't yet but my time will come! I'm cosplaying as the first Doctor for an anniversary event where I live. Need to fit into that blood suit he wears!

    That's the only reason I'm on this site! I'm going to Dragoncon in Sept. and I want to look my best for it. I cosplay as Ms. Marvel, so I need that super-heroin body :)
  • General nerd, I like a lot of things, games (console, PC and tabletop!), computers, gadgets, anime and more. Was at RTX just last weekend in Austin!

    Edit: Plus astronomy & astrophotography

    I'm dropping the weight to fit into my character as well. :)

    I use to be a big tech nerd, but now I'm mainly a gamer.

    Hi! I don't do cosplay, but am definitely a nerd and absolutely love going to conventions! It's been 2 years since we've been to Comic Con (see the little adorable toddler to the left), but we're hoping to go next year. I definitely want to be looking good for it! Plus, you've GOT to be in shape to stand in all of those lines! ;-) Good luck and many successes!

    I've never gone to a con or cosplayed (not many opportunities in Ireland), but I've a rich and deep history of nerdery. Tech, science, gaming, sci-fi & fantasy in all their glorious forms, comics, rpging, the works.

    I've posted on here before, but I just thought I'd stick myself out there. Is there anyone on the forms who cosplays/plays video games/ watches anime or the like that's hoping to lose weight for anime and video game conventions?

    I've always wanted to go to one of these, they look like so much fun. I love video games Halo, Skyrim, Fall Out, Fable, I'm hoping to get into the San Diego Comic Con and an E3 Convention, I would be in nerd heaven! Have lots of fun!!

    SDCC if you want to go in 2014 you better buy your Badge now!!!! 2013 is sold out

    lol I'm not gonna lie, I chuckled at the question. I'm not losing specifically for cosplay or anything like that - but I wouldn't mind lookin' awesome in a Sailor Moon outfit eventually. Or better yet, Akali. Awww yeaaahhh :)

    Ooo! I'm a massive nerd and new cosplayer. I think I'm more motivated to lose weight to cosplay as my favourite characters!

    Did some one say nerds?

    That's me!

    I have done General Iroh, and a Boomer, and a really bad rock lee cosplay. One of my big motivations is to lose a lot of weight so I can cosplay better. I am actully saving up money for when I hit my goal weight, going to get a cast metal cosplay suit of Balmung from .hack//sign.

    This year at Gencon Indy I think I am going as a pokemon, anyone have any idea's of which one I should do!

    Everyone please add me! Always happy to have some nerdy friends to help support me and who I can help out :)

    Electra, Storm, Bat Girl & Wonder Women!
  • I went to Comic Con 2 years ago. Didn't have the money to cosplay so I just drew whiskers on my face and wore Naruto's HLV headband lol. I'd love to go to more conventions, most of my friends always go. But I could never pull off the outfit properly. I'd LOVE to do something from Skyrim or League of Legends. So hopefully one day it'll happen. But good luck!!

    Just got back from Animé Expo in L.A. I didn't attend (I will own up to being a techie, but don't know that I've earned the geek title), but my 15-year-old son did. It sure looked like fun! I wandered over to the convention center one day, just to admire all the cosplay outfits. Amazing!
  • I love comic books and go to conventions all the time. I'm actually going to one at the end of july. everyone feel free to add me!

    Gamer and a nerd. Hoping to get out to the Toronto FanExpo to meet Ron Perlman, and Karl Urban this summer. Met Micheal Shanks (SG1) in 2011. Way cool.
