  • Hi all! I was on MFP previously and had success, until I stopped taking care of myself and gained everything back. I really need to do this and do it now. No more excuses, delays, or giving up. So about me... I'm a 33-year old single woman living in humid Pennsylvania, USA who needs to lose about 150 lbs. (I'll figure out…
  • Great minds think alike! I was just informed about Humble Bundle a few days ago and was going to post this here and then I saw your thread. Ditto on its awesomeness! You donate however much you want to receive a few games. If you donate more than average, you get a few extra games. If you donate set amounts (still cheaper…
  • Mmm.. nerds.. I have to say, nerdy guys are my "type"... mostly because they have respectable IQs and I like to make them cry when I outplay them in video games. ;)
  • I've been working my way through my list of champs vs bots, thinking I should get to know all of them a bit BEFORE doing ARAMs. My ex played ARAMs all the time and they always looked fun to me, but I thought I'd have to be like him and know what I'm doing with all the champions before doing ARAMs. Little did I know!
  • I was introduced to table top games a few years ago.. but alas, the friends I drank and ate (oh yeah, and gamed) with are on the other side of the country now. Girl looking for gaming friends! Are any of you in PA? :P

  • Taleah. My go-to is Ahri (Foxfire, of course), but I've been trying to play with others more often. I'm no SivHD, but I enjoy playing. :D
  • About 45min from Philly, in Montgomery County. I went to PSU in State College in my younger days. I just moved back to PA from California, so new friends are always welcome. ;)
  • Hello Dr. Myers! After seeing your post on the Biggest Loser Challenge thread, here I am! I would love to be considered for one of the limited spots for this Challenge. This life-changing three month period sounds like exactly what I need to incorporate into my regime to really maximize my potential weight loss and…
  • If we didn't get a message, does that mean we're not in the challenge? A little disheartening, since there was mention of being able to join for the first 3 weeks, the mention of teams if there were a lot of people interested, no mention of how many contenders were going to be accepted, and I had expressed interest the day…
  • As most have said, using it in shakes is great. I mix some into my french vanilla shakes when I'm lazy and don't feel like getting out the blender (I mix this easily with a blender ball mixer), just for a yummy peanut butter flavored shake.. or a touch of cocoa powder with it for a chocolate peanut butter shake. If I bring…
  • I would love to join also!
  • I'm about 50 minutes west of Philly, in the Pottstown area.. but I love to drive, so I don't consider myself far from the city or any surrounding area. :D Welcomed to add or invite to local activities!
  • As someone else who has quite a bit to lose and has lost a little so far... I definitely feel where you're coming from. I just got out of a long-term relationship and I often think that I'll never meet someone special until I'm thinner. But that's not true! I spin it into a positive... Being overweight is weeding out all…
  • *whistles* You, sir, are some nice eye candy. :) Great job and keep up the excellent work towards your goals!
  • Numbers 1, 9 and 10 are my bread and butter for motivation! I've been doing the Zombies 5k program at ~290 pounds, so you can imagine how gross, sweaty and red I get while doing it, as well as how my fat jiggles and rubs together. But hey! Like you said.. I finish each day of the program! And despite how unsexy I look…
  • I'm not quite in Philly or a 'burb, but I'll hopefully be moving closer soon. I'm currently in the Pottstown, PA area.. about 20 minutes from KoP. I just moved here after living in northern California for a few years, so any friends are welcome. :) Jen, 31 years old
  • I was in the middle of Week 3 of the Zombies 5k when life happened and I had to take a few weeks off. (I started the program when I was 300 pounds, so it's possible!) Now I'm 288 pounds and starting Zombies 5k from the beginning again, starting today. Friends are always welcome!
  • The last month of my life have completely turned my life upside down. I was a homemaker and real-estate-license student living with my military boyfriend of several years in northern California. My significant other was deployed to Afghanistan for four months prior to returning home last month.. and severing his…
  • Age: 31 Height: 5'8" SW: 318 (April 7, 2013) CW: 288.2 (Woohoo, 30 pounds lost in 11 weeks!) GW: 160 (Will vary when I get down there... I haven't been below 180 since I was seventeen years old!) Keeping track of everything I eat, even when I eat "bad" foods or have a bad day, makes me more aware of what I am doing to my…
  • How did you feel after just 30 minutes of walking? Sixty minutes is a fairly long time.. your body would love you even if you only did 30 minutes. I know when I get the urge to work out, I try to push myself.. longer time, more distance, etc. And then my body hates me. So I hate exercising. So I stop. It's a vicious cycle.…
  • Don't hang around the scale in the locker room, chillin' and gossiping with your 95 pounds friends. (There's plenty of room elsewhere!) It's bad enough you look at me like I'm the Loch Ness Monster, you don't need to be able to see exactly how much I weigh, too. Besides, you might think I'm crazy when the scale says 298…
  • Not only did I order myself a Polar FT4 today, but I also did my first day of Zombies! 5k. I may have only "ran" for three brief periods and walked the rest, but I still did it!
  • Beale AFB, near Sacramento, CA
  • When I started eating healthier, I had a few cravings for bad foods. I also had times where I'd be upset about something and want to eat all the things. I started writing down things I *really* wanted to eat on a list that I promised myself I would eat on a designated cheat day if I really really really still felt like…
  • Torchlight 2.. still way more addictive than D3 ever was!
  • This sounds awesome! I would love to join in. :)
  • Steam: Jyneefur (mostly TL2, Dungeon Defenders, Civ5, CK2 type games) LoL: Taleah (I play for a bit, then don't play at all, then play for a bit, etc.)
  • Simply amazing transformation! You are one of my many role models.. especially because your starting point was very similar to mine. Thanks for sharing!
