HOpe to meet another wife from Florida

Good Afternoon.

I'm a Navy wife and a Naval Officer so I get both sides of the lifestyle which amazingly enough can be very problematic and frustrating.

Joined MFP as I constantly yo-yo with my own weight and would like to Yo-Yo at a lower weight range permanently. Joined this group due to military connections. I'm adopting you as an extended Family Readiness Group.

Good luck to everyone on their goals.

Hi everyone I'm an Army wife and mom to 3 teens. I started using MFP yesterday and love it! My 13 y.o. daughter recommended it to me. I have been using the FitBit since Christmas and I'm excited that it will work with MFP. Anyway, we are currently living in Hawaii for the next 2.5 years so I'm hoping to take advantage of the weather and get out, lose weight and get back to running!

Hey All!
My name is Renee and I'm currently stationed in Kaiserslautern, Germany with my Army hubby and children. Having been here now for almost a year, I've finally settled into a routine and can get on with my "Get Sexy" goal. I would love to meet other military spouses in the area for motivation and support in their weight loss journey!

Hi, I'm Kari we are currently stationed aboard Camp Lejuene, NC. We have no kids yet but have two sweet furbabies. My husband is deployed and I have made it my goal to focus on myself and getting healthy while he is gone. I am looking to make some friends as I continue this road of getting fit!

Hello,

Hello! This is Lindsay. I am married to an amazing Sailor. We are stationed in San Diego and have 2 beautiful children, Olivia 2 (3 in June) and Ethan 6 months.

Urrgghh I have a very busy life. Four kids, full time student, and lots of volunteer work that keeps me running. But now with the move and the extreme change in lifestyle I am headed to. I am looking to focus on family and MYSELF. so looking for friends that are motivators because sometimes we all need some motivation to keep going when things fail. ADD ME

Hey
I'm samara. We are in South Korea, and I think I'm the only one who hates army wife life. To the point I have a count down on my phone till he can leave the army and I can chose where we live lol. First time in my life I'm not working and stuck somewhere I don't want to be, this brought on weight gain - bc really who wants to look good to watch Netflix?
No I'm not over weight but there's always that point when you start gaining and you can ignore it or stop it in it's tracks.
I have a new puppy who thinks work out time is play time.
I just got my body rev in the mail started yesterday - love JM! I also add a random work out DVD on top of the rev and try to go to the gym when my guy gets off work.
We have a vacation back state side in a month (well maybe still waiting for it to be approved) and hoping to see a flat stomach by then.
I'm always looking for people to challenge myself with or exchange work put tips.
Nice to meet you ladies

I commented awhile back with my intro, but I've recently moved AGAIN! Gotta love military life

Again my husband is in the Navy as a GM.
I am almost 22 years old.
I have a deaf Australian Cattle Dog named Pearl.
I love photography, hiking, art/crafts, cooking, traveling, swimming, dog sports, working on cars, trucks, and bikes as well as driving/riding them, and I absolutely love horseback riding (14+years doing equine sports).

Instead of living in WA, we are now in beautiful San Diego, CA! We're out in East County though!

Hi everyone!

I'm Rachel, a stay-at-home wife, hopefully a stay-at-home mom soon! My husband is Army and we're in Aurora at BAFB.

I was pretty much on track with my weight loss until I started babysitting for an EFMP household t wo months ago... Lol I practically live here. Long story short, I started snacking on their sugar and preservative filled food and neglecting my horseback riding schedule, instead of taking care of myself FIRST.

Had an appointment at the HAWC with the BodPod earlier this week and found out I regained all of the weight, in addition to replacing some hard won muscle with fat, putting my BMI at 37%.......... >_<

I'm keeping my own food in their fridge now and making a point of working with my horse every day, but with how fast I deteriorated in a two month period, and that my crazy hubby thinks I look fine, I figured posting here would be the best way to keep me on track! And motivated! My horse trainer does her best by reminding me I can't jump my horse until I lose at least 30 lbs, but extra help never hurt anyone.

Please feel free to add me!

Hi Everyone.
My name is Ashley Denny and I'm Army Guard Infantry Wife station in Colorado. I've been married to my husband for 2 years and we have a son who was born in Honolulu, HI. My husband was first station in Hawaii for four years and deployed once. I've know him for 6 moths and I knew was the one for me. I moved out of Colorado to Hawaii to get married and start a family and I love being a Army Wife. When I met my husband I weighed 125 lbs and after having my son i weighed 190 lbs. I had really bad cravings for ice cream and taco bell and grapes.lol. The first month I lost 40lbs from breastfeeding and I got excited because the weight was coming off. Well, the next month I lost all my breast milk and it made it very difficult to losing this mama baby fat. I did whatever it took to lose it. My brother was getting married soon and I didn't wanna be the fat sister in the pictures. When I came out for the wedding it took me 4 hours to find a dress that I could feel comfortable in. 4 hours for crying and disappointed. I blamed myself on the weight gain. It crushed my brothers heart to see me cry about my weight. I told him to not worry and I will try to get rid of this weight. Couple months after the wedding I saw the photo and I couldn't even recognized myself. I knew I had to change my attitude and start getting back in shape. So I stop eating junk food and greasy foods and more healthy foods. I started taking my son on long walks and at night my sister would come over and workout with me. I lost 61 lbs in the past 10 months. My weight goal is to reach 125. I'm almost there. There is way to get thru it but you have show yourself and prove that you can be all that you can be. That's my story and thank you for taking the time to read it and understand.
