@BodyByBex Four 10 hr days, that's a great schedule. I wish I could do something like that with mine. Very slow typical Saturday for me thus struggling to stay awake.

Whenever I run across newbie posts in other parts of the MFP community asking if there are other nerds/geeks on here, I always post links to Geek Squid and the MFP Gamers groups.

Hi Pin!

hope it goes well!

Hi welcome! Incase you haven't discovered MFP groups yet, here's a couple that may interest you. http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/19-mfp-gamers http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/3566-the-geek-squid

PC vs console gaming in a nutshell... Personally for me, I do both. I lean more towards console more than PC.

I enjoyed it. Lots of action and as others said, the movie highlighted the fact there is a war going on. I am curious about many of the scenes they did reshoots on and looking forward to it on the Blu-ray release for more details.

I picked up a few and surprisingly Doom wasn't one of them. Grim Dawn, XCOM 2, and Dark Souls 3. I think I am done for at least until Spring of 2017.

Having never played Skyrim before and hearing about the Special Edition release, I picked it up on Steam recently and having a blast. Also roommate got FFXV for the XB1 and been playing that too.

I like that with my night job, they are flexible with the dress code. I can just go to work wearing gym clothes and then I am able to hit the gym right after my shift ends in the morning. Makes the need to go home first to change and get that temptation to skip non-existent.

Eek that sucks. Hope you feel better. I have been alone at work the past 3 nights thanks to sick coworkers. It's kinda nice though. I am extra busy so the time goes by very fast and I can listen to my heavy metal polka music on YouTube with no complaints. q=

Here's mine! Instead of sitting at a traditional desk, I game from my lazy boy reclinder on a 65' Vizio 4K TV. Connected to it is my PC and on the shelf below the tv is the soundbar followed by a XB1 and PS4. It's kinda nice after going to the gym, taking a shower, to relax in a comfortable recliner for some games.

Pretty much this. I work nights and have crazy schedule as well. Typically 11PM to 7AM but sometimes it's more. I personally find sleep is more important. If I am tired, it doesn't matter how often I eat since I overeat to help me stay awake and thus go over my calorie goal for the day/night.

Wow that just blows. I hope it gets better for you. As for the Amazon gig I personally know someone who has done seasonal work in their warehouses for them. Depending on where you get placed, expect being on your feet a lot.

That is a perk of working nights. Less peopling. I also like being able to go to the gym in the mornings after work. Very little peopling to do except when I sometimes forget my headphones

Picked up during a Steam sale the Witcher bundle. Witcher games 1, 2, and 3 for 30$ I also tried the demo of Euro Truck Simulator 2. It's a game where you are a truck driver transporting stuff from point A to B. Strangely simple gameplay that I found fun. I plan to get the full version whenever Steam has it on sale. Also…

@lilaclovebird and @bethanie0825 I get it now too. I've been working nights for nearly 6 years and I didn't care about not having a social life while working the graveyard shift for the first 4.5 yrs. But now that I've been dating the same girl for over a year which honestly surprised that I even met her with this weird…

Not a nurse but I work nights in IT. I found sleep was my biggest obstacle. If I had bad sleep, everything else suffered. I'd be tired all the time, constantly be grazing on food to help keep me awake thus going over calories and I would not even bother with exercising since I'd be too tired. Once I got my sleeping…

So after working the past week from 3am to 11am, I am back to my normal 1130pm to 730am schedule. I slept ok but still feel I am dragging tonight. Back on the coffee and trying out an experiment. 1 cup with one of these melted in. They are small but 1 supposed to have the potency of 2 cups of caffeine in them.

Tiny splash of heavy whipping cream with a bit of coconut oil.

Played No Mans Sky on the PS4 for a couple of weeks. I honestly didn't know about huge controversy surrounding the game when I bought it. I thought people were just bitching to *kitten* though I guess it was nearly unplayable on the PC platform for a bit when it first was released. A lot of promises were made that didn't…

As someone who started close to your weight, walking is great exercise. It was my only form of exercise for nearly 1 year. Biggest piece of advice I can give is get comfortable shoes and moisture wicking socks. I don't know your size but for me I found New Balance and Brooks were the 2 brands that carried my size, 15 and…

I like mine with a little heavy whipping cream and coconut oil.

This weekend I am working a modified shift. Instead of coming in at 11pm and working until 700am, I get to arrive at 2am and work until 10am. Not sure if I am going to like this or not...

I concur with seeing a doctor. Couple of years ago I had mild shoulder impingement in my left side. Could not lift my arm over my head at all. Sleeping was painful especially with being a side sleeper. I received a referral from my primary doctor to see a physical therapist and they helped in getting better.

It's difficult but not impossible. Sleep is very essential to me. I found when I lack sleep, I am tired and compensate by over eating to stay awake while I am at work during the grave yard shift.

To crush my fat, see it driven before me, and to hear the lamentation of their women.

Pretty much this and time. Everyone's different and people lose fat from different areas at different rates.

I get up and walk. Though I work at a desk in the IT dept. I can take a few breaks through out the shift and take 10 to 20 mins walking breaks. I found it will give me a boost of energy.
