Nerds Unite!

Hey new people! I already posted in here when the thread first started but, I lost that account so figured I'd re-post in here to see if I can make any new nerdy friends/re-friend people I've lost.

My name is Abby, I'm 29 with 200 lbs to lose. I've always wanted to go to an anime convention and do some cosplaying but never have because of my weight. Really hoping that after I get close to the size I want that i'll be able to start doing that.

I've been an anime fan for 20-some years now. Eventually my love for it got me travelling to Japan and staying in Okinawa for a month with cousins. I'd love to eventually be able to go back.

I also roleplay, write poetry, and short fantasy stories. All my roleplay has been textual, dating back to the chatrooms of AOL 3.0.... to this day I still keep in touch with some of the buds I RP'd with back when I was like 10..

Star Trek, Star Wars, Superman, DC in general, Marvel as well. LOTR, GOT aka ASOIAF, Sherlock and tons of BBC America among others.

My goal is to drop 20 pounds. I was always pretty fit and slim but once I hit my 30s it got harder. I am doing a Spartan Race in September with a bunch of younger folk from my job. Gotta keep up with the kids!

Hi, I'm Von, and I'm a 43 yr. old nerd. I love Star Trek, Star Wars, Dr. Who (reboot and am now watching the old ones from the 60's on up), anime, RPGs, especially tabletop. Pen and paper D&D rules! We play version 3.5 at home, but my DH and I have been playing since 1st edition in the '70's and early '80's.

HI! BOOK NERD here, I read any and all books I can get my hands on. I've considered cos play but I am definitely wanting to meet a few weight loss goals before I do that.


I am also a disnerd

I obsess over a few small things.

OMG!!! We need to have a group!!!!!

hey there is a group! look up nerds unite :]

Hi, i'm Kristin. I'm 28 and a nerd....i play video games, d&d, go to ren faires and read almost non stop. not really sure how much i have to lose since i found out my frame size i think my original goal was too low, so now we'll just see when i get to my happy place.

Hey guys! My name is RJ and like everyone here, I'm a nerd too..... well not as big as I use to be lol. I play a lot of video games, but leaning towards the horror genre because of one of my favorite YouTuber Markiplier haha. Currently for the summer, I have been playing the third generation Pokemon games again, and going back on to play MTG. I also watch anime from time to time, currently catching up on Toaru Majitsu no Index 2 haha. I also speak a little bit of Japanese too

Hello, I'm Courtney and I'm a proud nerd. I enjoy watching (and re-watching) Doctor Who and Sherlock excessively and have many attempts to try to cosplay as characters. With low funds, however, I usually go to Goodwill and try to get as close to the original as possible. I enjoy video games, namely Bioshock and the Arkham series, though I have an absolute adoration for the game Catherine. I also admit a deep love for LOTR and The Hobbit and plan to see the third installment this year, the day of if possible.

Out of all my enjoyments, I would have to say that Doctor Who and Bioshock are the biggest ones. My room is filled with tiny to medium Tardises (Tardisi? Tardiss?), I have a grand encyclopedia of Doctor Who, and cannot begin to describe the amount of t-shirts. Bioshock was my first ever video game I truly got into and that made me cry at the end. I hope one day to get more memorable. If you would kindly, direct me somewhere to get it!

My goal here is to tone my body up. I've always been a bit of a pixie-type girl, but I want to be more fit than petite! With this, I hope that it helps to lower my calorie intake while also showing just how much my cardio can help improve my body! I hope all my fellow nerds (or geeks, depending on preference) enjoy their time with everyone too.

Can't....remember....if....posted...*save* *fairyhearts*

Will comb through awesomeness later tonight.

THIS is the post I need to make new friends and keep each other motivated. Especially if some people are somewhere around here (TX anyone?)

- Biology Student from Europe
- PC gamer
- Love studying languages
- Enjoy Anime & Manga
- Unhealthy amount of hilarious drunk stories

Last point being one of the reasons I am trying to get healthier ^^.

Add me up, be motivated, and ready for some mutual support. Thanks OP for making this thread :glasses:

Hi all, I'm a proud nerd here

Hi, my name is Amber, I'm 25 and live in Louisiana. I have been a nerd all my life! During recess my friends and I used to role play all the shows that used to come on Toonami. Anime, comics, fantasy, books, etc. I became a Potter Head in the 4th grade and did dress up as a Gryffindor student for the last movie. I recently became a Whovian a year ago and became so entrapped and passionate about it that I have a DW sleeve in the works. I met Matt Smith when he came to New Orleans Comic Con this past year and I'm currently working my way through the classics.

I've been on my weightloss journey since summer 2011 and have lost 42 lbs so far. I am looking for like minded friends so we can motivate each other while also understanding our nerdy moments! Feel free to add me!

P.S., here are 2 of my favorite moments of 2014!!
