Looking for support from other nerds/geeks out there

I'm really trying to succeed this time, so I'd need every bit of support and motivation from you guys - preferably from other nerds and geeks.
I'm 32 and I live in Finland. Love comics (western & manga), games (PC, console, board games), books, movies and generally just being a fangirl for several things (Sherlock, The Big Bang Theory, Friends, HIMYM, Star Trek, Supernatural, Labyrinth, Harry Potter, Outlander, Drizzt Do'Urden, Walking Dead, Rick & Morty, Family Guy, Goonies, Indiana Jones, Ghostbusters...).
I am trying to be active, log in as often as I can and also write a blog here. I'm aiming to lose 86lb in total, so there's a long way to go - and I could really use the help.

Hey feel free to add me, join my weekly weigh in group, I am also a self-confessed geek, more movies and tv than games though.0 -

I have not, but I'll look into it. I'm currently not getting in any fitness programs since my main goal for now is to lose weight - I know, I know, workout is important and it would help tone my body, but I've never been an active person because I'm one of the people who don't get any endorphins rushing in my brain after working out. However, I will try to include some kind of activity when I'm feeling up to it, but not right now.1 -

Haa, welcome! So if you're going to visit Moomins, you're also visiting Naantali? I've been there once few years ago, it was really pretty during the summer It's really easy to get to places in here due the good bus service - even trains might be better on schedule then (lol).0 -

I sent you a request! I love gaming.. these days I have two very young children so it's tough to find the time, but I played WoW for years and love FPS and adventure video games (PC and Xbox One). I ❤ GoT, Walking Dead, Rick and Morty, Marvel, Star Wars, and in general being a nerd with my husband. And turning our kids into nerds is a hobby in itself.1

Sent you a request.
I'm super into video games (mainly rpgs), love playing board games when my friends and I get together, Star Trek, Harry Potter (you never would have guessed from my picture, clearly), and am generally open to exploring more sci-fi/fantasy books, shows, movies, etc.1 -

@tmbg1 I'm adding you because you have a giant duck in your profile pic!
Also a geek - we've been on a Doctor Who marathon (right now Patrick Troughton is on, and we were watching the David Tennant ones this morning) for the past few days. More movies and TV as opposed to gaming. My biggest favorite is Babylon 5. I miss that show...they really developed the characters the best.1 -
Oh forgot to add that They Might be Giants is my favorite band... #nerdrock0
