    Yeah a lot of my time is consumed from Netflix or my Xbox (atm it's a combo of The 100 and Elder Scrolls Online). I also play a few indie games on my laptop (those it can run). I read books and have also read the odd manga. I've watched quite a bit of anime too... So I guess I am also a nerd xD

    Looking to lose about 60lbs... Long journey ahead but I'm so ready for this!

    And the more friends the better!

    I'm with you! Total nerd and comic geek looking to lose about 50 lbs. LOVE Doctor Who and Sherlock, but I've always had trouble getting into Supernatural. Just too serious. I like my shows a bit more light hearted (I'm a huge Buffy fan, for example). I've never played WoW though I havE gotten into Guild Wars a but lately.

    I'm more a comic reader than a video game type nerd. I'm currently just finished rereading House of M and Decimation and am now working on Aries God of War. I'm rereading the build up to Civil War before the movie comes out. I'm kind of dying to get tI Planet Hulk, as its one of my favorites. Though I can never just read one series at a time, so I'm also reading the new Ms Marvel (with Kamala Khan) and Deadpool: Secret Invasion. Lol. I'm really obsessed with Deadpool and building up a pretty good obsession with Kamala Khan too. :)

    Geek, want to lose around 30lbs. Star Trek is my everything, have seen Sherlock and Supernatural (at least until season 9), and I totally love Orphan Black and OITNB. Hannibal too, but I haven't gotten to catching up. I play video games as well, but I'd say I'm a pretty casual gamer. Really enjoyed Fallout 3, and also enjoying playing Smite right now (which you should all try if you're into MOBAs). :smile: I'm also in love with Rooster Teeth, Achievement Hunter, and FunHaus (formerly Inside Gaming) on YouTube.

    Nice meeting you all! :)

    I've never got to watch orphan black, any good? I just finished up the new show Sense8 on netflix, and if takes a few episodes to pick up since there are so many characters, but after that... Pretty good :)

    32, gamer girl, more nerd than geek (is it the glasses?). Replaying Skyrim for the nth time while my gf tires to get through her first playthrough of DA:I but keeps sidetracking into FC4 and AssCreed. Big into Marvel, too many hours on Tumblr... We're doing the keto thing, still fine-tuning but looking forward to being in better shape!

    43, I Love Star Wars, Star Trek, Harry Potter and all other Nerd Flicks lol. On my way to losing 100 pounds, have dropped 21 so far. I work on the road most of the year and don't have many friends in the new places I move to every few months so looking to gain some good friends with similar interest on MFP. Feel free to friend me for motivation, support, or just some nerdy talk. :-)
