I need friends to talk about health and fitness for my MFP app. I'm very rarely on the computer for this place and I sadly had stopped paying attention to my health or anything for the last few months... Causing me to go from 168lbs to 180lbs... I could just cry with how disgusted I am with myself because I was trying so hard for so long to lose weight... Even if nothing I did really did anything for me... But here I am again.
Back and hitting the gym (with my very first gym membership) and a whole new motivation... But it's nice to have some back up. Especially since I never have anyone to work out with. I just go by myself and so far I've gone 5 out of 8 days.
I'm an aspiring cosplayer who is going to cosplay for the first time this November... I'm pretty scared because I'm not skinny or fit and "fat" folk usually don't get good reactions from people when we try to cosplay... Anyway. I could use some back up.

I'm in the same boat! I added you. Cosplay always allured me as a younger person since I like community, boys, and games... seemed like a fun experience - I just stuck to LAN parties. Now I'm a big time hula hooper and momma. aptly indicated in my username !
When it comes to weight I feel for some reason if I can overcome this I can overcome anything.0 -
Sent request, hope i can help let me know xx Good luck and stop being so hard on yourself, just get you bum in gear started to make healthier choices and i find exercise makes me feel more positive about things.
Take care xx0 -

Hi! This is my first post on the message boards. I peaked at my highest weight in 2007... at exactly 180lbs.... and guess what I ended up getting down to! 130!! Ironic, huh? If I did it, you can definitely do it. All it takes is some serious determination. I'd be happy to help however I can. I ended up gaining a little more weight in the last year and a half, so I'm back up to like 145 now.... but I'm working out again and I'm gonna get back down to 130. I felt amazing at that weight and was getting so many compliments from friends I'd grown up with. Anyway, feel free to message me if you'd like some tips!! If you drink soda at all, cut it out. Completely. That's one of the biggest things I did when I lost my 50lbs -- I stopped drinking soda. I replaced every single soda I would have had with a glass of lemon water. And I started doing pilates about 4 days a week for 30 minutes a day. It honestly just started to fall off, and when you start losing a little bit, you only get more and more motivated! Watching the numbers on the scale go down is such a great feeling.
Sorry if I'm talkin' your ear off. Just know you can do it!!! Cheers 0 -

Just today I've reached 130 lbs from a starting weight of 200 lbs back in January this year. You *can* do it! Stick with it, give yourself the attention you deserve and need... and you'll get there!

WHUT!!?! All 200 lbs of 5'3" me cosplays and it's always freaken AWESOME.
I make sure my outfits are tasteful. Yes, a big girl wearing a tiny non-body conscious outfit is going to get a negative reaction, but a beautiful women dressed beautifully will ALWAYS get a positive one.
GO AND STRUT, at whatever size.
I think it is GREAT that you want to lose weight, but do not feel "disgusting" or do it for the outfit...do it for you, and your health. I amhere to support you in any way
This is one of my outfits.0 -

Look at you, hottie!! I agree, even girls with a little meat on their bones can look sexy in costume. In fact, most of them look better than the twigs! Not to take away from anyone's ambition to lose weight (that's why we're all here, obviously.. haha), but I think the first step to getting healthy is loving yourself for who you are and knowing that you have value and beauty even if you're not the size you wish to be. It starts with self-worth. Intrinsic value is nothing to shake a stick at. Go for it, girls! 0 -
I've added you. I'm 145ish now and want to get down to 140-135. Nearly there! I started much higher as you can see by my ticker. It can be done, you will get there, and your cosplays will surely be brilliant either way. 0

I weight about the same and my goal is 125 I;m just a tad taller. I added you good luck! 0

I'm a little below 130 looking to lose a few more but I was close to that weight two years ago so I know the feeling! Felt pretty disgusted. With every pound lost I suddenly was like "I can wear sexy clothes now!". Add me if you want (anyone can feel free to add me!). I'd love to cheer you on! 0

Ha, yes maam. About 190 now...and THANK YOU. The greatest lesson I've learned is that I need to love myself and respect myself at any size. Self worth isnt dependent on a wieght or a size.
Treat yourself like you are Worth it EVERY SINGLE DAY0
