    Ah, I want to be your friend!!!! I'm video game addict, sci-fi obsessor, and full-time statistician because math is so much fun. I have 65.5lbs total to lose and am 16.5lbs down so far. I'll send you a friend request :)

    Hm, yeah I'm in Canada so not sure if it'll be available but it definitely doesn't hurt to look hehe

    The SCA is most assuredly active in Canada. I'm in Edmonton and know lots of people who do it and have been active and loving it for decades. :)

    Also, I getcha and I'm in! 5'3" filthy hobbitses here, currently at 164 lbs and 3 days in on what is hopefully the last restart. I want to get back to collecting the 1ups and stop using them up!

    Joined the group last night but didn't get a chance to post as I was playing GTA5 and got caught up... lol... but yes I am so for a group of geeks. ;) I know we all come in different shapes and sizes and also have different things we geek about but regardless... it's awesome to come together as a geek.

    Any of you feel free to add me as well. =)

    I think my name alone speaks volumes about me. LOL I just thought I drop a line and say hi! Anyone can add me. I have been at this game for awhile. I started with about over 100 to lose and have a ways to go. :)

    @Expat4Life Then be my friend! I'll throw you a request haha Grats on your progress so far and wewt for more geeky gamer girls. I knew you guys were lurking somewhere!

    @Sercee Nice well then when I have a mo I'll have to look into it :smiley: Internet fives for another hobbit! I know exactly what you mean about wanting this to be the last restart, I've started half-heartedly I don't know how many times. Sometimes I'll go for a week, sometimes only for a few days. Definitely want to just grit my teeth and get through it for real this time ;)

    @PayShi Awesome, welcome to the geekery! XD I completely agree that regardless of our goals or geek loves, it's still really cool to have a place to come together and talk shop or geek out with each other hehe Sending a friend request!

    @Nerdybreisawesome I think it really does, and I like it haha Throwing an add your way and feel free to join our group if you haven't. The more the merrier I say ;)

    @cljones302 Agreed this thread turned out to be a lot busier than I thought it would haha Adding you, and welcome!

    i'm "dorky"...does that count?
    I just finished "INSANITY: THE ASYLUM vol:1" yesterday. training for a Spartan race in July!!
    I like comics, domestic/manga/manwha. horror, sci-fi, super hero movies. I read the walking dead AND watch the show (...AND played Telltales games)...Flash, Arrow, Game of thrones, dead like me effin' rocked! iZombie...others I can't think of off the top of my head...supernatural (and the anime), animation/anime. video games (currently getting my _ _ _ kicked in "Bloodborne"). SO stoked for the Deadpool movie next year!!! ...and Batman v Superman!!!
    at work a few years ago, they made fun of me because I called it "Final Fantasy Football". that was Adam Sessler's fault, as he said that on X-Play once and I guess it stuck. I am NOT a sports fan...at all.
