Being a dedicated gamer I spend a lot of time indoors- meaning i have pale skin and a little bit more fat than I'd like (sorry not sorry). But, I recently came across a "study" I guess you could call it that said people who gave up soda lost like 20 pounds in 6 months. That doesn't sound right, but hopefully it's true because I gave up my precious Mountain Dew and dr. Pepper ([b][i]precious[/i][/b]) and within a week i feel better and actually have energy to go outside, lol. I'm 19 and don't need to lose 20 pounds but I'd like to be healthier at least. I never know what to believe on the diet articles and money scams online, and every health article says something different. So, I was [i]hoping[/i] to maybe find some like-minded gamers or some good advice from my fellow guardians? All of my friends are virtual (wow that sounds lame) so any interaction is really appreciated lol. I'm also really shy in-person so going to the gym or even our community pool is nearly impossible for me even with my boyfriend (anxiety is a bitch, what can I say) but I like taking my dog for walks! Hahah I'm also working on the pale skin thing, slowly but surely wearing a tank top and walking my dog will heal me of my Casper-itis. XD Thanks for reading my annoying plea for human interaction and advice, right now I'm just a house-girlfriend so it gets really boring once the chores are done lol.
