Hello,
I'm new here, I just joined this site yesterday. My name is Amanda, I'm 28 and I'm an army wife at Fort Campbell KY. My husband is currently overseas and I'm hoping to shed a bit of weight before his homecoming in a few months. I love that I can track my eating habits and caloric intake. I am not really overweight, but I'm not in shape either and I'm looking to get toned up and finally lose the rest of my baby fat (my daughter is now 2 1/2, my son 4, so it's been a long time coming). My problem is I'm small built 5'2" so any bit of weight I gain really makes a difference in how I feel and how my clothes fit. I figured it was time to do something about it and this place makes me feel motivated!

    It's a tougher road to travel being a military spouse and I do salute you for your personal sacrifice. I never said it enough to my wife while we on active duty and for all the times I left her home with the family but believe me we husbands do appreciate what you go through.

    Welcome aboard. I think you'll find a lot here to get yourself on track and in shape before your husband returns.
