    Grats on the weight loss. You look good. How are you at the events they will use to test you? Pull-ups or the alternative pushups, crunches and the run?

    Last IST I believe I was getting around 15 pull-ups, 60 crunches, and a 10:30 run

    Congrats! My husband lost weight and got in shape to join the military as well. He's been in 5 years now and says it was the best decision he's ever made. :) Good luck with boot camp and your future!

    First of all Thank you for your service.
    My advice to you is to run and then run some more.
    You can never be too fit and the more you run now the easier life will be in boot camp.
    Also try to not be the guy the DI knows by name.
    That guys life will be miserable.
    Keep your head down, your mouth shut and listen.
    Good luck in your future.
    Your life is about to change and it will be life altering.
    Post an update when you get out of boot.
