Heya!
I know we all probably spend a good part of our spare time counting calories, planning meals, working out, and researching the newest fitness trends....ect. However, I curious what other people's hobbies were outside of the diet/fitness. Are you a stamp collector? A Singer perhaps? Share your hobbies here :D

I'll start in case anyone is feeling shy.

My hobbies: I love to play video games, watching food network contest shows, nature walks, and anything to do with Otaku culture.
Otaku is the nerdy side of Japanese trends in fashion, video games, collectables, manga (comic books), and lots of other fun things. I also cosplay competitively with my friends so we make and dress up in costumes from anime (cartoons) and video games and get judged for craftsmanship. The costume in my profile pic was mostly made by my friend (but i did get to help :D) and we won best in show for our group at our last competition.

Your turn!!

    Fitness and weight loss are not so much hobbies as a means to an end. My hobbies include singing (folk and choral), Folk music (actually most forms of music, but folk music in particular :wink: ), cooking, photography, walking/hiking, cycling, reading, Toastmasters (Public Speaking and Leadership)...

    Unfortunatley for me I love to bake.:heart:
  • Fitness and wellness take up a huge part of day to day life. But the rest of it is family time, wedding planning, reading, and blogging. :)

    I love anime (currently trying to watch Black Butler), video games (currently playing Xenosage Chronicles, Skyrim and Skyward Sword), reading and my favourite pastime is patchwork quilting :) I also love baking but I've cut down on that - a LOT since starting my diet :(
    I am also a Mum to two gorgeous children who keep me too busy for all the above fun most of the time :P

    billards, motorcycles, building a 51 Chevy pickup, Offroading/camping/roadtrip with the jeep or bikes, dating (donno if thats a "hobby" but it takes a good bit of time/money").. i have an eggbot and a makerbot for some nerdy fun.. I also design/build/sell custom electronic projects, usually relating to whatever vehicles I own at the time.

    When i mention i didnt see this or that on TV, I do have people ask what I do with my time since im not watching TV... to be honest theres so much out there to do, I cant stand sitting around NOT doing something. i could list stuff all day, but I only do some of it once in awhile, so i dont think it counts.
  • cooking, fishing, reading the Bible

    I like to play and watch hockey. I enjoy blogging, playing electric guitar as well as writing music and recording. Then there is the hanging out at the beach as much as I can and as much travel as I can fit in!
