in Introduce Yourself
I've been on MFP for 50+ days now.. down 30 lbs.. I have my days where I do best alone but there are other days where the social life is a must. I love talking about my lifestyle change.. it's exciting the new things I've added in. etc.. Cardio, Weight training, circuits, Cycling, Running... etc I have a whole 'nother lifestyle too.. I'm an IT (Information Technologist), Gamer, Writer, Artist, comic book & Anime & Manga fan, I'm 29 and still like cartoons and Marvel movies...I also have my other fandoms like Anne Rice books.. I love to build things and I'm good at figuring out a lot... IE; PC repairs, network installs or any other random things. I like to say jack-of all trade sometimes.. not everything though :)


I love inspiring people/ caring/ nurturing people if I can.. I appreciate it in return.. being able to give and receive advice on here like we do is extremely beneficial!! Not to toot my own horn here but I'm an all around friendly person.. looking for FRIENDLY people in return :) If your from Duchess, Putnam, Orange, Greene, Sullivan, ulster or Westchester county New York that's a plus too :)

Please feel free to add me. Currently my goals are...
-120 lbs to lose,
-Run a 5K,
-and last up to and hour cycling.

Small goals but as I reach them I'll increase em. :) ciao !

    Feel free to add me as well! I have about 100+ pounds to lose myself. I'm still trying to get a workout routine down, but I'm down for advice! And I give it when it is welcomed. A lot of friends that I have tease me about this lifestyle change so it's a little bit harder to discuss these things with them. Please feel free to add me. :)

    I feel like I know you already being the wife of an IT jack of all trades and being a gamer, comic book hero nut, and cartoon freak. :P My hubby, 3rd son and I jumped on the fitness board last April. My eldest, second eldest and his fiance have recently joined the fight against fat as well. Family motivation rules!

    Aside from the IT skills you and I have many common interests. I love gaming, comic books, Marvel Films and Anne Rice. Add me! In fact, I am actually taking a MOOC from Colorado State right now on Comic Books and Graphic novels.

    Hehe...Welcome fellow nerd! :)
    At 57, and with the same interests, (comics, games, Electronics, and Marvel movies) I'm here to show you that the nerdiness doesn't disappear with age!
    My lab looks like a Star Trek / Marvel convention, with the obligatory signed photo of Stan Lee on the wall. :)
    My boss shakes his head when he passes by the lab (doesn't dare come in....he's the GQ type), but he has noticed the increased physical activity, and came to congratulate me - those little nuggets keep ya going!
    Please feel free to add me - I'd love to stay in touch.
