in Introduce Yourself
So I lost about 30 pounds last year and proceeded to gain back 50, so here I am starting over again. Looking to add some more friends on here (Most of the ones I added back in the day aren't active any more).
I'm a super SciFi nerd
Also I work in Sports Nutrition so that's cool too I guess
I do standup comedy
My favorite foods are pizza and mac'n'cheese
I love beer
Dieting is hard and it sucks.

    Hi. Starting again to. I'm a whovian and fan of anything with space ships and time travel. A sedentary lifestyle, cheese and carbohydrates are my weakness. Also my mum is boycotting me so I hope we can help each other.

    Nice to meet you, Why's your mom boycotting you?
    Cheese and carbs are also HUGE weaknesses of mine. When I diet I cut out all cheese and up my protein so much that in order to stay in my calorie range I have to do mininal carbs

    Do it! For some reason my mobile app won't let me go to profiles though so I can't send requests

    I'll most likely send you a friend request too if that's ok! Think I've figured out how to do it. That's great that you have previously lost 30lbs you did it once so you will definitely be able to do it again :) I've got 34 to go so could do with some of your hints along the way and I'll do my best to help you too!
    Apart from Doctor Who and such shows I do hope you have found the awesomeness of Dean, Sam, Castiel and Crowley aka Supernatural :smiley:

    I love your post haha. yes it does suck. I put on 40 lbs in Australia of all places!! Tons of alcohol, takeaway, and no gym... stupid me. I've been home since April and the scale has barely budged. I need to get smart about it. I still love my beer too haha. Cheese is THE WORST. I'm good about not buying pasta, but I love me some goat cheese. Chips are a problem too... If it's in the house, I can eat a whole bag. :/ pita and hummus doesn't compare!

    Nothing wrong with being nerdy! I, too love doctor who and my fiance is an Uber sci-fi guy! If he buys one more star wars lego or action figure we'll be forced out of the bedroom for lack of space!

    Pizza, reeses pieces and Nutella are my weakness...

    Hello :)
    I am an anime fan,cosplayer,nerd of various topics and things.
    I am starting over as well. I have a terrible habit of starting and getting into it than wanting to spoil myself and stop. I restarted officially last Monday. Began buying more healthier options for work(work for the state) and working out afterwards. I figured new year,new job,back in school,fresh start. So far its been a lil hard but I'm getting there. Try not to eat too much heavy or fried foods.

    Ooh !!! Looks like I fit in here perfectly ! Nerd here ( major doctor who fan )too !!! Kinda I starting over myself. I have 5 kids and lost 70lbs after my last baby ( she will be 2 in March ) then got really sick with a bad gallbladder. Had a rough surgery and long difficult recovery. Now here I am having gained 20 lbs back. I was 30lbs away from my end goal and now I'm 50 lbs away. I lost most of my weight doing t25 so I'm doing that again as well as counting my calories. Been at it again for about 2 weeks and the scale hasn't budged. Trying not to get discouraged. I really have to keep myself motivated. Otherwise it is REALLY hard for me to get my head in the game !
