    Hi everyone! I'm 43, female, married with 2 boys and 2 dogs. We have no cable and 3 Xbox 360 consoles in the house. Currently I am a Destiny dame. I also enjoy Assassin's Creed and such.

    I was down 58 pounds thanks to MFP, but up 5 since January! Now that there's a bit of sun and warmth, I'm getting back on track. I'm looking for friends - both MFP and Xbox - come walk and play Destiny with me! My name on Xbox is JerusalemsCross - but let me know you're from MFP!

    Hey guys. : D

    I'm 21, female, and a college student. I play a lot of Dota 2, CSGO, and RPGS. I'm currently playing through chrono trigger a third time because it one of the few games my dying computer can handle.

    I am about 182 right now and I'm trying to lose about 65-70 pounds. I want to be back at my lowest weight since hitting puberty.

    My story's pretty simple. I'm 25, got a 5 week old son, and my weakness are online RP for white wolf and skyrim. Hubby's more of an avid gamer than I am, but we've got pc and ps3. Right now I'm looking to lose 30 more pounds since I lost my baby weight already. My work out usually involves dragging the baby along on walks or using his 10 pound butt as a dumbell for squats. He doesn't complain. Lol

    Hi! I'm Kris. I'm a Traige agent for AT&T, so I get to be on the computer a lot haha.
    I'm a very avid computer gamer (WoW, LoL, Hearthstone, and HotS), but I play the XB1 on occasion (Madden mostly, although I have Shadow of Mordor and the Master Chief Collection).
    I'm currently at my target WEIGHT (220), but nowhere near my target body. 25% fat currently, and I want to get down to where I can see my abs like I could in middle school/early high school.
    I didn't know there was a gamer group on here, but I'm really glad I found it!
    Kkman4evah is my gamertag on Xbox, and I play on Blackwater Raiders for all the WoW players (Alliance FTW)

    Hi Everyone!
    I'm Daniel, Male, 24.
    I grew up known as "the fat kid" I've been losing weight up and down over the past 3 years. I am currently 40lbs down from my heaviest with 60lbs to go. I love all types of games although I wouldn't say i'm particularly brilliant at any of them. Historically I've never been much of an online player because one can only take so much asskicking before the controller goes through the tv. I am a sucker for a good storyline and do like to think i'm quite the pokemon master (or at least was a few gens ago) I was also a massive Yugioh and Magic fan when I was younger.

    perhaps, haven't yet

    What are your weightloss goals?!

    Not enough ;) Close to 20 at this point

    Walk on the Beach?

    Hey all! I'm Kayluh. Female, 23 years old, from Canada. Right now I'm roughly around the 200 lbs mark, standing at 5'4". Ideally, my goal is to get down to 140 lbs. I'm single and patiently waiting to meet my nerdy other half. :)

    All things geeky: I get way too addicted to MMOs. I played Anarchy Online for years and years, but have since migrated over to Guild Wars 2. I do enjoy RPGs and FPS from time to time, usually on a Playstation as my console of choice. Although Legend of Zelda is still my all time favorite game, with Kingdom Hearts being a close runner-up. (And we can't forgot Pokémon!)

    I'm also a huge cosplay fan. Been cosplaying for about 3 years now and have done many different costumes. X23 has got to be my favourite, she's always been my top Marvel hero and go-to cosplay.

    Comic books! Marvel all the way. I'm pretty big into X-Men and Avengers. The Marvel cinematic universe makes me scream like a bloody fangirl, always exciting to see how everything plays together, even if it does stray from the comics.

    Guess that's it for now!

    I'm Arth. 32 years old and aiming to lose around 50 pounds. Weight loss plan consists of healthy eating and exercise. Sounds simple enough, my only problem is consistency.

    Not sure of my level of geekdom but here goes: I play Guild Wars 2, love Star Trek(TNG is my favorite) and Star Wars.

    If anyone wants to add me to discuss fitness goals or geek stuff, feel free.

    Hey! I'm Lisanne, a 26-year-old female from The Netherlands. I'm a web designer/developer, meaning I don't get to move much during the day. I ended up gaining quite a bit of weight during my first 2 years on the job so it was time for a change. I've lost 7kg so far and want to lose at least 7 more.

    I'm for Sony all the way, spending quite a bit of hours beating baddies and hunting trophies on my PS3, 4 and Vita. My favourite genre is (MMO)RPG or pretty much anything with a good story and lots for me to see and discover. Right now I'm finishing up Ni No Kuni on the PS3 and playing Final Fantasy XIV on the 4.

    I'm Bek, female (in case my name didn't give that away). I'm 27 and I'm from Sydney, Australia.
    I'm 6ft tall and I have 46kgs more to lose. I've so far lost 8kgs.
    I wasn't much of a gamer until I met my husband who I've been married to for 6 years now. Gradually over the years I've become more and more hooked. Now I game daily. Most of my gaming is done on PC and Xbone. We have two Xbone consoles and tv's set up in the house so we can play online together/against each other. And two PC's side by side. We still get reeled into playing WoW every time a new expansion is released. Skyrim ftw. Currently playing a lot of Diablo on console.
    Never done any LARPing before, but would love to give it a go!
    And yes to beaches. LOVE. Will love more when I have the hot bod to go with it ;)

    Hi everyone! I'm Sarah & I'm 26 from the UK. I have played a lot of games but my favourite at the moment is league of legends - I also play world of Warcraft, minecraft & the sims when I'm feeling particularly girly!!! I have so far lost 10lbs however this progress has been very slow - I have lost that this year however if I can lose 20-30lbs by the end of the year I'll be really happy with that! I'm happily engaged & am just trying to lose some weight to feel more confident in myself - please feel free to add me as a friend!

    I'm Bee, 26, From Atlantic Canada. (Woo Maritimes!)

    I havent been doing much gaming lately other than wii fit if that counts but when I had the means I loved RPG and FPS type games. Skyrim, Call of Duty, GTA stuff like that. I play some race games like Forza.. I prefer PC for some games and Console for others. I like card and board games like Catan and MTG, dont mind some d&d but Im not too good at vocal roleplay.I dont think I would be too good at LARP for that reason.

    I haven't lost any weight yet and I just started really working on trying to lose recently.
    Id like to lose maybe 80-100ibs, Im more happy with just finding a weoght I feel comfortable in my own skin moreso than a number though.
    I also have a friend who does all this with me and its been great motivation and I know we can push each other to keep going when we dont want to while having a great laugh along the way.


    I'm super open to friend requests and welcome anyone :smile:

    Hello everyone! My nams is Frans and I am 21 years old. Currently, I am going into my senior year of college and I am a Psychology major (double major with Criminal Justice but Psychology is my main passion). Found this group when browsing MFP and thought I would definitely join since I love video games :)

    Not sure if I necessarily have a particular genre that I love but these are some of the games or series of games that I love/am obsessed with: Skyrim and Elder Scrolls Online (have not gotten to play in awhile but really enjoyed them), Kingdom Hearts, Dragon Age series (my current obsession), Mass Effect Series, and Final Fantasy X. Also have a Wii and Wii U so I love games like Mario Kart and Super Smash Bros Brawl (been playing these two game series since the Nintendo 64 haha).

    I lost about 40 pounds towards the end of high school just before I turned 18 but sort of messed up during my college years so I fluctuated about 20-25 pounds up and down. Currently cutting after bulking for about 4.5 months (went a little too quickly in terms of gaining fat due to some family stuff) and I hope to achieve some decent definition before summer's end! Just started StrongLifts 5x5 and hope that my strength skyrockets over the next couple of months!

    My name is Jasmine, and I'm 21. Current weight is 149, at 5'1. Looking to get back down to 125. It's not listed on my profile, but I have lost over 35 pounds since 2013. I've been yo-yoing between 145 - 155 for a frustratingly long time now, and I'm about ready to get over this hump for real.

    Now onto the reason why I'm posting here in the first place!! My favourite games include titles from Mass Effect, Dragon Age, BioShock, Tomb Raider, L4D, Saints Row, GTA, Fallout, Dragon's Dogma, Far Cry, The Witcher, etc. There are a lot more that I'm missing, but I think it's ok to stop now lol. There are a lot more games I need to play that I've just never gotten around to, like Dishonored and ALL the games by Naughty Dog.

    I've been holding off on getting a new console because the game selection is going to take awhile to build up, but I think I'm going to pick up a PS4 early next year, and finally play those exclusives that I've been missing out on. And also because of Fallout 4. Anyways, that's me.

    Hello, I'm Eliabeth. I'm a female and I play all sorts of games.

    Some of my favorite games are the Dragon Age games, Pokemon, Animal Crossing, and Tomb Raider. I play plenty more but it would take too long to list them all.

    I love forum based role plaing. I also play MtG and I hope to start playing D&D soon. I would love, love, love to LARP one day.

    I've been off and on trying to lose weight for almost a year. It's only recently that I've really given it my all. I'm hoping to lose 80 pounds!

    Hey guys! Mike here from Newmarket, Ontario, Canada. Love me some gaming. I'm a dedicated WoW'er where I have RP'd in the past. I also like playing DCUO, Destiny, and other PS4 games. My gamer tag on there is Wilkocub.

    Today is my first day on my weight loss plan so I've got a little way to go! My first goal is 30lbs.

    My name is Carol. I'm about to turn 30, 5'1" and currently 150ish pounds. Looking to loose around 25lbs.

    I'm a huge gaming nerd. Grew up on everything Nintendo. Love the Zelda series (Minish Cap is my favorite). Lately I've been immersed in Fantasy Life for the 3DS. I've got almost 200 hours logged on that one. I did some online wrestling RP groups way back in the day. Love board games and card games. And now I'm living the dream as an assistant manager at a Retro gaming store. :smiley:

    I like walks on the beach... But I burn even thinking about direct sunlight. So I'd much prefer a hike in the woods.

    What are your weightloss goals?! To get to 225....
    How many pounds have you lost? I've lost 55lbs after having my son. I have another 50 to lose
    Walk on the Beach? I love the beach but live 6hrs from it :(

    I used to play on a modded Left 4 Dead 2 server before my son was here. I find it hard to PC game with him running around now, especially with others, so I mostly stick to 1 player games on PS3/ps4. Looking forward to Fallout 4!
