Friends? (bonus points for exercise, IIFYM, nerdy interests)

So I've come to the realization that a large percentage of my friends list on here no longer (or very rarely) logs in and am looking for some people to keep things active and interesting.
A little about me:
1. I'm 22. Whether your age is similar or not doesn't matter much to me.
2. I've recovered from an ED years ago and focused on living a healthier life now. Everyone slips up but I do my best. Being around people who eat normal amounts is important to me and I can't offer support to people on VLCDs that aren't medically approved. Recovery friends are definitely fine though and I will fully support you.
3. I eat whatever I want as long as it is within my calories. I eat a lot of healthy things and vegetables. I also eat a lot of ice cream and peanut butter and make room for wine.
4. I love exercise! I run, do strength training, yoga, Pilates, Zumba, dance, things like Insanity. It would be great if you enjoy similar.
5. I've reached my original goal weight about a week ago. Now I'm working on cutting down my body fat percentage (so not eating at maintenance yet) and focusing on fitness goals, getting stronger, running faster.
6. People who like video games, comics, music, and other similar interests are also a plus. Sarcastic/funny/supportive is all welcome.
7. If you share Vitamix recipes with me you will win my heart.

Hi, I'm 26 and over half way to my goal. Congratulations on meeting your goal. You should add me; I'm new to the forums, but I've been consistently using MFP since August to track my progress.
I also eat whatever I want as long as it's within my calorie limit, but mainly vegetables, chicken, and pork. I hate to run unless I'm playing a sport like Basketball of Football and I'm starting to get back into weight training.
My favorite video games are Disgaea and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and my favorite comics are Y: The Last Man and Saga; how about you?0 -
Hello! I am 25 (26 in Nov.) I am new to MFP but will not be stopping, I have GOT to lose this weight!
A little about me:
- I try to eat healthy, but as long as I am within my calorie limit, I am happy.
- I never thought I would say this but I started running a few weeks ago and I love it! I actually look forward to it! Right now because its cold out I have been switching between the elliptical and the treadmill, but once it gets nice out again I am anxious to run outside.
- I love nerdy things- I am a science teacher. I also am a huge video game and board game fan!
Anyone feel free to add me!0 -
I also love board games! I'll add you both.0

This sounds exactly like me! Although I'm not a science teacher I am a pharmaceutical student right now. I've been logging on here for a month but just discovered the forums today!0 -

Me, too! We have game nights at our house regularly and I demo games at gaming conventions.
I am almost at my goal weight and switched my focus to body fat and stopped weighing myself in August.0 -
Awesome! I am looking for friends who log too! Feel free to add me!0

.
you are almost like me. not there with my goal weight.
But i am getting closer and stronger and my goal weight might have to be reevaluate.
now anyway i am focusing more on becoming a better faster longer runner than a biggest loser.
"I lose weight to be able to run better rather than run to lose weight". <--- Fitness Goal here!!!
all of this above but i am not a gamer.bc all of my free time i am outside running/walking...... or reading Game of Thrones.
you can add me. FR sent.0 -
