    Congratulations!

    You will never be the same and that is meant in the very best way; when you become a Marine yourself you'll understand.

    It took about a year and a half, but after dropping a little over 100 pounds, I was finally able to fulfill my dream of enlisting in the United States Marine Corps.

    I still have about 30 lbs to lose before I ship to boot camp, but there's no slowing down this freight train. This journey has taught me that boundaries are meant to be broken. If I can do it, so can you.

    You're my new hero in so many ways! Thank you.

    Congratulations! Make sure you aren't even close to your max weight when you ship. You don't want to be a diet recruit!
