    Hey there! Air Force 01-07 chiming in. I'm not looking to get back to my weight before I got out, because I might have... well I hit the ROAD there for a few months so I was kinda chubby at the end. I lost the chub by selling my car and bicycling to university every day for a year. Now I'm looking to get back to my BMT weight, ha!

    Navy Journalist 3rd from 1964 to 1966. Yep, I served during the Vietnam War; but I was assigned to Patuxent River Naval Air Station. That was a very long time ago...almost 50 years. Wow! It seems like just yesterday, when I was weighing in for boot camp. I was 134 pounds and STACKED. 38-24-36 and I didn't even realize how good I really looked. I had starved myself for year to lose 52 pounds, and I still thought of myself as a fat girl.

    This photo was taken of me in 1965 on a flight from Washington to San Diego.

    I look at my old pictures of myself at my first duty station, and I'd like to smack that tiny idiot girl for thinking she was fat.
