Hey everyone! I'm Katie and I'm 22 years old and living in the US. I mainly play on my PlayStation consoles and play games like fallout, bio shock, last of us, beyond two souls, elder scrolls, etc. And of course I have all my game boy systems to satisfy my Pokemon addiction. I used to do text based rp religiously for probably most of my life. Sadly college likes to suck the life out of you and I no longer had time for it

Growing up I was the fat home schooled girl and even now into my early adult years, having been teased and ridiculed has made me really self conscious about my body (though I've lost a bunch of the weight). At my most I weighed 200 lbs. When I was 17 and since then I've been able to drop my weight down to 150, though I still don't feel comfortable and want to lost another 20-30 lbs. And start building muscle.

Oh, and yes, walks on the beach are a must.

Hi all! I'm Patty
22 year old female
When I'm not at work it's (almost) all about games!
Mostly video games (big into horror, simulation/survival, and RPG).
I've never LARPed before but have always wanted to try!
I'm trying to lose about 25-30 pounds and was well on my way (at about 9 down), but had a bunch of big life transitions and let that get in the way of my progress. Back to it though!

I'm Mo. I'm 35 years old and female. I have 60+ lbs to lose. I spent way too much time at working, working on working, stressing about working, thinking about the next thing I wanted to work on...you get it. I love what I do now. You could almost say its who I am. But no longer at the sacrifice of my body. I've lost 11lbs on diet alone but now I've added my workout component by joining a local wellness center and working with a PT. I have a LONG way to go but am determined. First weight loss and cardio health, while slowly adding a little muscle and stamina. When I get my weight under control I want to focus on muscle building and strengthening.

I love all kinds of games. I'm mainly a PC gamer and have over 600 games on Steam. I keep a PS4 around for a few platform only titles I still love. I'm currently on sabbatical from WoW and enjoying the relaxation of HoT. Rocket League is also keeping me very entertained. I LOVE strategy games and can play endless hours of Civ5, I don't know why. I also really enjoy playing every level of every Lego franchise game with my god children.

I don't know if any is even hear anymore but I thought I'd see if I could get it going again.

My dog walks/runs on the beach. My calves are ready for that yet. I'm still on the treadmill...

Good Afternoon, I'm Nick. I'm 27 years old, and male. I play all sorts of RPG's including WoW, Fallout, Skyrim, and the like. I've even dabbled with tabletop gaming. When I was a kid, we used to play with foam swords, so I guess you can say I have done LARPing. I am working towards a six pack. I have lost the same 15 pounds over and over throughout the years... I just moved to Hawaii, so Yes, walks on the beach.

Hi everyone! I'm Chani. I'm a 25-year-old gamer mom from Iowa. My daughter is turning six tomorrow and is my whole world. My main quest is to learn how to love myself again after suffering a devastating loss last year and treating my body right is one of the prerequisites to that quest. I seem to be different from most people endeavoring to lose weight because my problem is not eating too much, it's eating too little. For years I've drank so much soda that I only felt the need to eat once a day. Now I've quit drinking soda and I'm hungry all the darn time. I'm trying to deal with my new appetite healthily, but it's not as easy as it sounds.

I don't have any consoles beyond my PC right now, so I mostly play League of Legends, Heroes of the Storm, Hearthstone, Diablo 3, and Minecraft. I played WoW for years, but a lot of my friends have quit or found other games over the last couple expansions so it's no longer worth the $15 a month for me. I like RPG, RTS, and tower defense games most, but dungeon crawlers are fun, too. I'm horrible at shooters and so avoid them like the Plague. I have an interest in tabletop RPG's but I live in a pretty rural area, so we don't have any groups for that sort of thing.

I used to participate in text-based role-playing on a high fantasy forum, but it went inactive so I'm entirely out of practice. I don't LARP, but I do enjoy going to the local Renaissance Festival every autumn to watch the jousting tournaments, get a wax-dipped rose, ride the elephant, and be escorted around by my favorite satyr Heplek. Maybe this year I'll feel comfortable enough in my own body to get a corset and dress... I'd like to see Heplek's face then!

Anyway, hello fellow adventurers! I look forward to getting to know all of you better. (:

Hi there
Who are you! I'm Rich, from NW UK
Age? 36
Female or male? Male
RP? Never been afraid to!
LARP? Never had but would!
What are your weightloss goals?! I want to be around 80kg, maybe slightly heavier, as long as it's muscle.
How many pounds have you lost? 45lbs
Walk on the Beach? I walk eveywhere... I love it, especially with a good podcast.

I love all things geeky and mix it pretty well with an active exercise regime.

My weapons of choice are PS4/Vita and PC. I used to be a very heavy WoW player but I am not playing at all at the moment (and I always feel a little guilty for saying that - which must say something xD )

Playing at the moment.
PC - Any racing sim & Star Citizen (I am obsessed by the whole thing but do not enjoy Arena Commander too much ).
PS4 - Minecraft, Driveclub, GTA Online, Witcher 3 and Rocket League.

Other than that I like all the general Netflix shows, catching up with my favourite YouTubers (ranging from fitness to gaming and anywhere in between) and watching the latest anime.

Please feel free to ask any questions or just jump in and add me for mutual motivation and chatter!

I honestly can't remember if I ever did an intro here, but if I did it was years ago.

Who are you! Tammy
Age? 28
Female or male? Female
RP? I've done some writing-based Harry Potter RPs on insanejournal and I'm currently in a D&D campaign with some friends that still intimidates me. Writing I can change a million times before I send it, while I'm not so good a improv.
LARP? Nope. I was curious once upon a time just because I wanted to dress up, but nope.
What are your weightloss goals?! At least 140 pounds total from my heighest weight.
How many pounds have you lost? 27
Walk on the Beach? I love the beach, and I miss living close to it.

Other than my HP obsession, I'm a gamer. I like RPGs, especially the Mass Effect and Dragon Age series. I was a big WoW player for a long time until a couple months ago when the second guild I invested a lot of time and energy into went under because of the GM with no explanation or warning. I'll probably come back for Legion, but we'll see. The only MOBA I regularly play is Smite. I've been playing on XBOX One and haven't tried it on PC.

Currently I've been playing a lot of minecraft on a HP server.

I am called Sophia

Female

I would consider my life an active role-play, I have like one foot grounded in RL. ;p

It's kind of funny, I was playing Mass Effect and I was wishing I was as strong and agile like my Femshep. Already naturally a bad-*kitten*, I decided to do some push-ups to start looking the part. Honestly though, my weight-loss goal is to be strong, to make myself proud of what I can do.

I've lost close to 30 pounds since I restarted, I've always had one of those "alluring" gaming bodies you can only achieve when you "pause" a game just to go to sleep. I lost a lot of weight before and I was close to my goal weight, but I found the love of my life (surprisingly the opposite of a geek like me) and he loved me and made me love myself too. Losing weight now is more based on support and less based on self-loathing. (one has no binge and purge...)

Do I walk on the beach? I live in Florida, the *kitten* beach walks on me.

My name is heather and I'm 21, not focusing too much on weight loss but it wouldnt kill me I GUESS heh
but as someone who has struggled with disordered eating i don't want to make weightloss a priority i just want to be aware of how much i am eating and not feel guilty about food, id like to eat healthier though, basically i am trying to eat normally. anyway, I do not rp or larp buttt i love video games, lately i've been playing a lot of dragon age inquisition and project diva i also love life is strange and a bunch of others such as drakengard3,metal gear solid,street fighter, and many more

Hi, I go by Midnight Destroyer on here (my wu-tang clan name generator generated name).

I'm 29, female and from London, UK. I've been almost a life-long Nintendo gamer but also play some casual PC and mobile games. My favourite games are Mario games (esp. Mario Kart), Zelda and now Splatoon which I sometimes competitively play and speed-run.

I've been on MFP before 2011-12 and it helped me greatly lose 40kg/90lbs in just over a year. Life happened and I more than fell off the wagon and regained all the weight. I'm slowly getting to a better place and want to restart looking after myself. I want to lose 45kg but I also want to achieve my fitness goal of running a marathon which I fell short of last time by 5 miles.

I'm using Wii Fit U to for weigh-ins and some exercise so if anyone wants to add for motivation (and gaming) send a pm.

Hi guys! I'm Ashley, 32, mom of 3 and 2 stepkids, from Arkansas. Just getting started and hoping to lose 43 lbs (lost 4 of that so far), and get my figure back. I'm tired of having a mom butt! Lol! I want to say I'll exercise, but I'll pretty much a couch potato, besides the usual chasing my 11 month old around and running errands all over town. Right now I'm taking it slow... Less eating, watching what I eat, and that's about it. I now have diabetes, as well as other health issues, so I'm just tired of this lifestyle and who I've become. Feel free to add me if you'd like!

As for gaming, I haven't gotten to play much, but have an Xbox 1, Xbox 360, Wii, Wii U, Atari, Turbo grafx 16, NES, sega genises, ps3, ps2. My hubby is a collector and more of a gamer nerd than me. Lol. I like a lot of different games, but mostly play RGs and FPSs.

Who are you!
Call me Lulu!
Age?
31 turning 32 this May, eeeeek
Female or male?
Female
RP?
I dabble with ingame RP, mostly in lotro and the secret world
LARP?
Nope, never had the opportunity pop up
What are your weightloss goals?!
Would like to lose 50 pounds by autumn, and then take it from there
How many pounds have you lost?
Nine pounds total since end of December (8 before joining mfp and 1 since)
Walk on the Beach?
Only if that beach is near a casino with free drinks!

First time I'm actually trying to get serious about losing weight. Not just by exercising, but changing eating habits as well. Excited to start taking weight loss seriously. I'm fairly active thanks to work (10k+ steps and 10+ flights of stairs daily minimum) but had horrid eating habits (order out every day for every meal, binge eating, etc). Have started watching what I actually eat and paying attention to whether I'm hungry or just bored.

I spend most of my time playing mmos, leading a weekly lotro game group every Friday. Also play The Secret World, and sometimes dabble in GW2 and Destiny on ps4. Last non mmo games played/completed have been Mass Effect, Dragon Age Inquisition, Papers Please, etc. Too many games, too little time

I'm Michelle, I'm 25 and I play tons of stuff. I've played board and card games since birth every week and D&D about once a month. I started with AD&D - man am I glad they got rid of THACO. I love PC gaming - right now I'm really into GW2. I play every week with my sisters, which I love, and as often as I can every other day of the week. Do more PC gaming than console gaming, but I'm hoping to play through Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 again sometime soon

Anyone else really into GW2? Have 2 level 80s and only 10 levels short on two other alts.

I've already lost about 5 pounds and I'm looking to lose about 35 pounds more. Definitely struggle with snacking while gaming, but working hard to count everything I eat and be conscious of it. Trying lighter calorie snacks like frozen yogurt covered berries and zucchini chips and baked chickpeas.

As has been said before - too many games, too little time. It's hard to drag myself to exercise when the games are SO good....

My irl name is Chanel

I don't RP or LARP but I love cosplaying! I play a lot of PC games! Whatever I buy on Steam or LoL mostly. Have a few other accounts like WoW or GW. Trying out Blade and Soul!
My goal right now is to gain muscle, lower my body fat, and just become stronger!
I have lost 21 lbs since starting MFP
I love walks on the beach

YEAH!

My name is Megz. I'm 30 and getting married in August. Both my fiance and I love to game. We mostly play on Xbone. Before him I mostly played RPG but he is really into FPS. So I sucked it up and play Halo with him a lot now. I got better but I still really suck. I have been gaming since I was like 5. I still have my NES. My dad was beast at Super Mario Bros and I thought he was amazing and wanted to be just like him.

I like my 3DS because I can play games on trips or lunch break at work and such.

I'm 180lbs and my goal is 135lbs. I haven't lost anything yet because I just started. I want to lose some weight before my wedding and get back in shape so I can enjoy our cruise!

I love lots of other nerdy things besides video games. I like comics, anime, manga, zombies, love to read books about zombies or apocalyptic kind of themes, and I love Adventure Time. I use to live in Colorado so I use to bike and hike a lot. My dad just got me a nice bike so I want to get into biking.
