    I am in the same boat as you. I need to lose 150pounds though so I can join the Navy. Have you already met with a recruiter?

    I joined the Marine Corps before having kids and I couldn't imagine joining after having them. It's one thing to be away from them during training, but you can't avoid 6/9/13 month deployments. Good luck!

    @usmcmp yeah, my husband is in the corps and gets out in July, so I somewhat understand the distance factor. My boy is my life but not only is this my dream but the best thing for our family right now! Thank you! :smile:

    I'm losing weight to join the military as well. It's between the Air Force and the Navy. You can add me if you want.

    Hey I am retired Army. Got back in shape on a DoD Civilian Deployment to Khandahar in 2013. Back at home it is much harder to get an hour a day run! I had been tracking the data like MFP in Excel for around 10 years. So easy in MFP. This is great and am keeping on track pretty well. Solidly back to 9 min miles again, looking to get to 7.5 min miles for 5 miles - 195 lbs this week and shooting for 160 by the end of April. Hang tough!

    Well good luck. I retired from the Army Reserves in 2011 and I fought my weight the whole time.

    Hey! I'm 20 and planning on joining the navy within the next couple of months! Let's motivate each other! A month ago I watched my older sister focus hard and train hard and slim her body down to join! She's at basic now for the navy! It's finally my turn!
