Wizard World in Philly at the end of May and then there's SDCC in July. My first time!

If you do stay at a hotel that does offer an omelet bar, just make egg whites instead. It's lighter, more protein and you can fill up!

Hey, all. I'm Matt and I live just north of Philly in Elkins Park (though we tend to hang a lot in Glenside). I've been in the area for nearly three years and are still finding our way around after having spent a decade living in Europe. I do Weight Watchers and work out at the Abington YMCA three times a week. I also do a…

I speak six languages.

42 going on 43 in a scant few months. The drive and willingness is there though the energy, some times, is not. Still, balancing the two usually works for me! Feel free to add me should you feel compelled.

I'm down 85 but have at least 100 more to go, myself, so I'm with you all the way! YOU can do this!

Is there a YMCA in your area? That's, to my mind, worth the cost and much better than a gym.

We live in the age of the geek and nerd. Even marketers and trend forecasters are hitting the comic cons in a bid to telegraph what's going to be cool. That's all good, just keep it on the level and let the nerdvana envelope you. As Adam Warrock raps: "Welcome to the Nerd Corps/Here's your application!"

I'm in Elkins Park though we tend to spend time in Glenside, particularly up on the Keswick high street. Moved here two years ago or so after nearly a decade living in Europe.

Hear hear! Welcome and you can do it!

I'm the same way. The few, scant shows that I do enjoy tend to not last beyond one or two seasons.

"Firefly", "Defying Gravity", "Ed" and "Pushing Daisies."

You can add me, should you want to. I log in daily and I find that the food diary is heads and shoulders above the Weight Watchers program. I'm using a blend of Fitbit, MFP and WW as I tackle my weight and get it, ultimately, down to the proper level!

Had to pass on SDCC this year, but hoping for next year. I went to the Allentown con and plan to go to the cons in Baltimore and NYC.

Nice to meet you and I wish you success! I joined yesterday and it should be challenging and fun.
