It's not too much of a detailed or flabbergasting story, or picture after picture of me losing a bazillion pounds....But for the first time in my 6 1/2 year career in the military, when I weighed in for my fitness today, I was in weight standards! I didn't have to get taped or bady fat % tested or anything! I was just inside weight standards! This is a huge victory for me, and I have a new found sense of actually acomplishing something. I've gone from 242lbs to 197lbs since last March and I feel Amazing!

I know the feeling. I only passed one weigh in without rope and choke and that was in MEPS. I am currently 13 pounds lighter than when I joined the military, I'm out now. It's a big deal and well done for doing it right.0

You know it really is a great feeling. Especially with me on my way out of the military, it feels good to know that I might actually leave in better shape than when I joined (I'm sure as you know, not a lot really do...)0
