Hey, guys! My name is Niki. I'm a 26-year-old, 224 pound gamer who's looking to lose the weight and hopefully make some like-minded friends in the process. That said, I'm open to any and all friends, so please feel free to add me! ^_^

    What kinds of games? I'm generally an RPG player myself, and my favorite is Horizon: Zero Dawn.

    I've tried losing weight before, ended up gaining instead and then getting discouraged. I'm hoping to have some friends for mutual encouragement this time, so it's great to talk about a common interest!

    Weight loss and exercise is all well and good, but do you Counter-Strike? Pew-pew.

    Haha On occasion I've been known to.

    Hey Niki! I'm a 31 year old gamer. I only have about 16 lbs left to lose after losing 7 lbs so far. I would be happy to have more friends to keep me motivated and to share what has been working for me.

    Yes, let's do it! You should get a WII if you are into gaming.

    Sent a friend request, I used to love video gaming! (Played a bit of CSGO, was a really really hardcore M+ playing WOW player back in Legion) Quit to focus on real life for now but in about 2-3 years I really want to come back to WOW!

    I don't know if I really count as a gamer-the one and really only MMO I play is something like 12 years old *sheepish grin* I mentioned it to the kid-salesman in Best Buy a few months ago, and he looked at me agape and said "that's still running?" Yeah, it is, and I love my LOTRO; so sue me :grin: What can I say? I'm 39 but probably should have been born in 1880 instead of 1980.......

    I never have really gotten into console games much, and most of the modern RPGs I can't play. LOTRO doesn't bother me because I can fix the camera in one position and zoom way out most of the time. If I have to zoom in close like in a dungeon area or dense forest, I start getting motion sickness. The newer games, with the camera action following the movement of the mouse, are completely out - I'm nauseated in less than 5 minutes :( So maybe I'm a casual gamer type, but when LOTRO goes offline for good, I'll probably have to go back to freecell and minesweeper *shrugs*

    But I'll support you! Gamers are a fun bunch! lol

    I love playing games but between single mom, part time student, and part time work I don't have nearly as much time as I would like. I also can't afford to upgrade any of my systems so I can't get any new games. So what I play now is basically Fallout and Diablo

    I'm not really a gamer, but I enjoy role playing story teller style. Does anyone do that?
