Hi everyone! I'm starting over once again on my weight loss journey and I'm looking for friends. I'd like something a bit more than just "liking" statuses... I want to find a group to help each other get where we want to be!

Interests: Marvel (comics and mcu), drawing, painting, all animals, witchy stuff, tarot, some anime, videogames like Dishonored, Elder Scrolls, Bioshock, yoga, old horror movies.

Let's be friends :)

    Ooh! I'm nerdy. Also into video games (more open-world RPGs than shooters, etc), horror movies, Marvel series on Netflix (yay, Luke Cage!) and I STILL watch Buffy. I'd like to get into the Marvel and DC comics, but don't know where to start. Friend request pending. :)

    I'm nerdy and a 10 year vegan. I'd like to have someone to talk to through my journey too.

    I'm not looking to loose 100+ pounds though so I hope that's ok!

    Hi there! I love this idea. I'm nerdy and have 100+ to lose so feel free to add me! I'm not vegan but I do have vegan friends so I love trying out new recipes. I love video games (mostly RPGs and horror games...and the Sims ha!), cooking, cats, music, languages, and watching too much Black Mirror and *kitten* reality TV:-)

    oh so apparently you can't swear in the forums and MFP changed my "bad word" reality TV to "kitten" reality TV...that's kind of adorable.

    Nerdy vegetarian who HAD over 100 to lose. Now, it's more like 27. I write fanfic for OUAT, Daredevil (mostly comics, but I'll do Netflix on occasion and I've been known to mix-and-match characters from one universe or the other) and have done a lot of Batman in the past.

    Happy to be friended!

    Trying to go vegan this year, and I would consider myself nerdy. Currently need to finish up the Horizon DLC but I also get sucked back into playing Stardew Valley all the time because it is so relaxing (=. I have about 20 to 25 lbs to lose, so I guess 2/3 for me.

    Guilty on all three counts here, haha. Been veg since 2001 (have alternated between vegetarian and vegan but really committed to staying vegan now). I'm trying a vegan keto diet which I began about a week ago and am already seeing great results with. This is my first time doing any kind of structured weight-loss diet and counting calories, which I've never been inclined to do before, but I'm viewing this as an experiment which means I need to collect good data. I'm confident this will keep me honest and accurate for the long term because I have too much respect for the scientific method to cheat or falsify my data. (That's some nerdy dieting, right?)

    Weight-loss goal: Lose 100+ lbs. (SW: 248/CW: 242/GW: 140 or less) Get fit enough to be able to comfortably engage in my favorite hobbies - hiking, rockhounding (lots of hiking around the desert), stargazing (trekking out to dark-sky sites), caving, skiing. I also dream of trying a jetpack and becoming a space tourist in the future, both rather weight-restricted activities. :P

    Fave shows: Star Trek, X-Files, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, The Grand Tour, Rick and Morty, American Horror Story

    Current game obsession: Fallout 4

    *waves to fellow vegan nerds*
