Bigger goals..army??

jsimms2127

So I am a 30 year old momma of 4, wife and RN. I have a weight loss goal to be 175 (CW 243), I have lost 32lbs since the birth of my daughter 4 months ago.
Lately I have been looking into furthering my education in Nursing with some co-workers and the topic of joining the army reserves was brought up. I was so interested that I spoke to a recruiter on the phone as well as a colleague who is in the reserves.
I have decided that I definitely want to pursue this but I have A LOT of work to do.
First of all I need to earn my BSN which I am hoping to start in the spring. Then I need to meet my weight loss goal and be able to run 2 miles in under 20 minutes...my current 1 mile is 14 minutes so I have some serious work to do.
I am looking for support and/or any advice from people that have been there.
