    Congrats. I was in the army six years ago and am trying to get back down to that weight. I have a long way to go. I dropped 45 pounds the nine weeks of army basic and gained a crap load of lean muscle. I used to see my reflection after basic out of the corner of my eye and wonder why the skinny girl was staring at me before realizing i was that skinny girl...lol. Once a marine always a marine. Have fun:-)

    Congrats! And don't get your Semper Fi tattoo until AFTER you finish training--you'll be asking for lots of special attention otherwise.

    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.
