I made one of these topics before, but I posted at a bad time of day so it got overlooked (at least that's what I tell myself, lol). I used to run quite often, and I hope to lose some weight off so I can get back into that habit. My ultimate goal is to get back down to my pre-deployment weight. When I got back from Iraq I had to have back surgery, which kept me from working out for too long. After getting out of the Army I kept on eating like I was running 30 miles a week still, and I even think I upped my eating out of stress. In any case, I'm giving it a go to lose all the weight I have put on over the last couple years, and I was hoping to add some friends for support here.

    Welcome back! I know what you mean about posting at the wrong time of day! I'm sorry to hear you had to have back surgery. I've never had any type of back surgery but I'm sure it's probably one of the toughest ones you can have. Anyway, good luck with your journey!
