    Fat Army wives unite to become thinner and healthier versions of ourselves! I've been in the lifestyle for the past almost 4 years years but have done nothing but get fatter since I met my husband back in 2004. In fact, I've gained an entire extra person worth of weight! So I have about 150-160 pounds to lose total and I'm already 38.4 pounds down from the beginning of this year. I just need to stay strong in about a month when we PCS back to the States and I have access to all this food that I haven't eaten in the past 3 years. I have two young children that I need to get healthier for, so they're my motivation.

    I just finished watching a GREAT documentary called, "Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead". I saw another post today where someone mentioned this movie being on Netflix (which I subscribe to) so I decided to watch it. It was absolutely FANTASTIC and I think it'll really inspire you. It's the story of two men and how they each shed weight and regained health through a plant-based diet. One lost 90 pounds, while the other lost over 200. I myself have gotten into more and more of a plant-based diet and have noticed my health go to a whole new level. You CAN DO IT!!!

    Telling my hubby he's got to join the army now, so I can be a part of this elite group of beautiful women.

    Im a fat Ex-Army wife. Lol.

    Feel free to add me. Really need to lose the 75-100 lbs I gained being an army wife. Man, that lifestyle and stress is HORRIBLE on your weight, though two pregnancies didnt help matters any.

    Here's to losing weight together!! :)
