YES, YES we all wanna be healthier, look better & fit into smaller clothes…but is there something strange or unusual driving you to do this?

For me it JUMPING OUT OF AN AIRPLANE!!! :noway: True story I’ve always wanted to skydive & when I was younger and fit I didn’t have the financial means or even know where to look at to skydive.
So this summer I hope to be under the weight requirements so that I can fulfill my life long dream!

    I've been thinking about joining the Canadian Forces but who knows if they'd even take me. I'm far from the healthiest, mentally/emotionally, and they've got enough on their hands.
    Still gonna call a recruiting centre when I'm physically capable of getting through the fitness test though. Just in case.

    Great reason! Sky diving was so much fun! I paid extra to have my jump filmed encase I never get the opportunity to do it again, that way I can always relive it. So worth it! Happy jumping!
