We're obviously the best source of inspiration. Now that you're in with us rin, there's no backing out. Time to truly get serious.

When it comes to loosing weight, especially from a girl, we are ALWAYS serious, but some of us procrastinate it off or don't do anything. Only the ones that work for it feel accomplished. Here at the ACen forums, we are determined, not just serious.

Last night I was settling down for the night and I decided to go onto the ACen fourms, and I came to this page. I started reading your stories and I decided to get up and go onto the stationary bike in my living room, while cycling I went on my DSi web browser and read all of your stories. They inspired me to keep going. I went 17 miles on it yesterday. I want to lose some weight and tone my abs. I wasn't too serious about but, then I read all of your stories and now I am really going to try and reach my goal. Thanks for helping me :3

Glad to hear! Best of luck!

I just hope it pays off and my cousin and I find a hot teenage Naruto cosplayer, (my cousin's doing Shippuden Hinata, and we were going to "fight" over a Naruto).

By May that Naruto is going to be running towards you! wooo hooo hooooo!!


I could be your hot teenage Nartuo--CRAPPPP I won't be a teen for next ACEN!!!!!! XD

Curse aging!

[OtakuChica]

Well, once you reach a certain age.

[GITS SAC Motoko]

Yeah I agree. That reminds me too--when you get older your metabolism slooooows doooooown. So much. So it's so harder to lose weight! So that's why we be doing it NAO! NAO I SAY! woooot!

Meh anyone else hating this humid heat? It's supposed to get cooler next week--I see some great running/outdoors days in the future!

[NinjaJedi007]

Just came back from a run a few minutes ago actually. Got some nice sun but boy was I happy to get back in my house. If I ever want to soak up some sun, I can never just lay out on the grass or something. It's too boring and the constant sun can be a killer.

Must be a difference in locale because it's not humid here at all. It's actually quite nice. I'd try running but I don't want to push it plus I'd just get winded super easy

[rin1782]

I hope it cools down because I have marching band for the next two weeks for eight hours a day. At least I get a workout

It's been humid the past few days around me. I just hope it's not that way for the half-marathon. I have let this become an excuse but I need to stop. If the humid weather continues I'll just have to ride my bike until it finally gets down to a reasonable temperature.

That isn't necessarily true, at 36 my metabolism is still pretty high.I have to eat over 3000 calories a day if I want to gain any weight. Speaking of which, I dropped back down to 129 1/2 lbs.

Lucky!! XD I know for women though it happens a lot. And you're a guy, you'll always have a good metabolism! hahahaha I got the slow metabolism gene. T_T So I realllllly have to work out if I want it to do anything.

it is harder for girls since we have a higher fat percentage, and I come from a family of heavy-set people. Both of my parents are heavy and my grandparents are, so it's going to be so hard. And my mom's been pushing off going to the gym, I feel fat! TT_TT I wish we had more room in my house to I could work out a bit there.

Anyway, since summer's almost over, my gym summer membership's almost over, so I can't go after school starts because since, I'm a guest, I'd have to do whatever my mom does. She does the Zumba dance workout, and I tried and HATED it. '

[magishine]

Whenever I hear about Zumba dance workout. I always think of the game Zuma. They should incorporate a frog that shoots multicolor balls into the workout

I might actually like it then! I love Zuma, when my friend got a pet frog I told her to name it Zuma but she didn't.

Hey everyone! Just scanned through the posts and wanted to tell everyone keep up the good work!

I was 186 and dropped down to 152, good motivation and work out ethic really helps I'm rooting for you.

I just work out ever morning before breakfast, though lately with the heat I haven't worked out as much but I really want to pull a sexy Leon this 2012 Acen so I'm putting all into it. I just hope the Leon fans appreciate it.

That's awesome! Wish I could loose weight like that! I bet you the Leon fans will appreciate it.

[magishine]

I agree. Leon fans will appropriate it and you'll probably have someone dressed like Ashley following you going "Leon!" and getting kidnapped by zombies.....or not

[OtakuChica]

That'd be so awesome if an Ashley did. My cousin and I were actually planning of following a Naruto and fight over him and everything. Let's hope the pain and effort we go through pays off. But since it's ACen, it proabably will.

[magishine]

That'd be funny. I'm rooting for you for success

It wouldn't be the first time I had someone follow me around calling out my characters name "Lelouch!" "Zero!"

[magishine]

I see. I can imagine that can get quite grating after a while

Congrats! You're at where I want to be! Today I am pleased to announce that I'm down to 165! A reminder to those tuning in I weighed in at 209 lbs. Around September of last year! I'm looking to get to a well-rounded 150lbs. then hopefully/maybe from there build some muscle.

As for you Byakuya, I'm interested in seeing Leon Kennedy as he has been in my top 2 Resident Evils: 2 and 4. Seriously, Resident Evil 4 is probably in my top 10 favorite games of all-time.

[GITS SAC Motoko]

It looks like everyone has been getting great results lately and Im so happy to see that! go everyone!

AND! I am proud to say I'm now OFFICIALLY BACK IN THE GAME HERE GUYS! The weather was perfect for a run, and so I had my first run in a month!!!!!!!! And I did a solid two miles with no pain, no trouble breathing or anything, only needing to stop once--it was after a really steap hill . I'm so happy because I feel so good again that I can finally at least do what I love and prepare for the gym when I get back to school. And because I've had no pain whatsoever, that means the 3 blood clots I have are breaking up.

YAY for breathing again!!!!!

LET'S GET SEXY FOR ACEN 2012!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great to see your up and running again, I feel really lazy because I haven't been exercising lately, but my mom has all these "things that are more important." i hope I'll at least be at 200 by ACen. Then I'll work extra hard next year!

How can you pick just one?! Hehe.

But seriously, I love all Resident Evil games and if I could pull it off I would cosplay more then just Leon. I don't think I would make a good Chris, maybe an okay Wesker, but he is just too hard all that tight clothing n' stuff.

[magishine]

Update for everyone. I was finally able to weigh myself today and after 9 days I've lost *drumroll*


22 pounds!!!


I'm freaking happy about that but there's no time to rest on that. Need to keep working
