Hi my name is Katie. I turn 24 tomorrow and August 2nd is my 4th wedding anniversary. My hubby is in the Army and is currently stationed in Japan on an unaccompanied tour. Our son wasn't approved for travel so we are living with my parents in WA state just North of Ft. Lewis. I had a breast reduction back in April and was able to get down to 222lbs but with being lazy waiting to be able to workout again and not always eating great I am now back up to 232lbs. My goal is to get down to 150lbs before the hubby comes back the end of 2013.

Hi everyone! My name is Niki and I am a SAHM and wife plus college student. My hubby is stationed at Pope AAF, NC. I am currently battling the bulge so to speak... I wanting to lost about 66lbs to get to a weight that I feel looks good on my short frame. I look forward to sharing and support each other.

Hi, I'm Penni. My husband is in the Army and we have also done Army Reserve, Active Army, Air National Guard, and now back to Active Army. Husband is deployed and getting ready to return in the next few months. I want to lose a total of 60 lbs before my birthday next year and I will be happy with losing 30 by my birthday. Making little goals and reaching them. I am also SAHM who home schools my son and sometimes that is a challenge. We are currently stationed at Fort Bragg, NC.

Hi! My name is Heather, and my husband is in the Navy. We are currently stationed in Bremerton, WA. He is leaving soon on an 8-month deployment, so I'm kicking it into high gear trying to get in shape before he gets back!

I'm 29 years old, have a 2-year-old daughter who keeps me on my toes, and I am also starting online college classes this fall. I'm finally pursuing my dream of having a bachelor's degree in natural resources.

I love eating and hate working out, so this is going to be a fight every single day! LOL

Anyway, feel free to add me if you like. My friends motivate me!

I'm Sherri. My husband is in the Army stationed at Ft Wainwright, AK.
And I have a serious problem with eating pretty much anything with sugar in it.
We have 2 kids, and I want to get rid of this "mommy body" and start looking hot again before we end up having another baby destroy my body, haha

Hi! My name is Liz! I'm 22 and my husband and I are currently stationed at Ellsworth AFB in South Dakota (although he is presently deployed). He left for the Air Force BMT last May, and we got married the March before that (and we also only met about 6 months before that). I got to see him at graduation for three days last July, and then not again until December. I struggled with quitting smoking that whole time, but now I've been a non smoker since December (I think I've smoked... 4 cigarettes since then?). Of course I've struggled with my weight as a result of quitting. I also am a stress eater and I'm sure everyone can relate to the stress of being a military wife. It certainly doesn't help that my husband can literally shove anything in his mouth and not gain anything (definitely bitter about that). So! While he's deployed I'm determined to slim down and make some lasting life changes so that when he comes back we can both live fuller healthier lives. Looking forward to getting to know you ladies!

Hi I'm Paula and currently living in Vilseck Germany I've tried losing weight before but wasn't really motivated. This time it's on and with the support of MFP members I'm sure I can do it!! Good luck everyone in their weight loss journeys!!!

Hello all! I am a 29 year old Air Force wife. My husband and I will be married for 5 years this month! We have two little boys, 4 and 2. We are currently stationed at Langley AFB in Virginia but my husband resigns his contract in Nov so we are hoping for orders!

Hello
My name is Christa. I am an Army wife and mom of a wonderful daughter. We are stationed at Fort Bragg, NC. I am also an ER nurse. I recently found this site and decided to give it a try. My goal is to lose weight and be healthier. I am a great fun personality that sometimes gets hidden due to my outer shell. I am comfortable in my own skin to a point but I want to be able to not worry about being judged and to be able to shop with it being fun again.
