    Navy wife for 8yrs! husband has been in for almost 12yrs..we're getting ready for our 3rd deployment and the LONGEST one :( we're stationed in norfolk,va but live in va beach!
  • My husband is in the army, he's currently serving in Afghanistan. When he left I saw it as a challenge and an opportunity to be a new (slimmer) me when he gets back. So far so good, but it can be hard sometimes. We live in Germany at the moment x

    I'm not a military spouse or anything, but I just wanted to say thank you to all of you and your spouses. I can't believe the strength you all have, it tears me up just thinking about how you all must feel when they're away.

    If you're strong enough to watch them go, you are so strong enough to get yourselves healthy. The best of luck to all of you, and again, thank you.

Such motivation to look good when you finally see each other :) I've been eating and working out so much better with him gone! Good thing my son will eat anything I cook :)

    Navy wife...together 20, active duty 15 and counting...the hubs is currently deployed. We're both into health and fitness, so I eat pretty much the same as when he's home, but I do love to really hit it hard while he's gone and use homecoming as a 'goal'. Feel free to add me if you'd like!

    Cheers!

    Not a wife but I'm dating a man in the Air Force :) He's currently stationed overseas for the next two years.... I've got a ways to go before I hit a healthy weight but I'm challenging myself to get there by the end of the year....
    I'm not actually a spouse either but we've been together four and a half years. I'm hoping we change the not a spouse thing pretty soon after he gets home from Afghanistan (Oct '12!) :)

    My husband was in the Marine Corps. I've been through two L-O-N-G deployments to Iraq and he was regularly gone doing training when he was "home". It's been 6 years since he got out, but I am always willing to support others! Feel free to add me to your list. Stay strong....you'll be back together soon, it may seem like forever but once he's home it will be like no time has passed. God Bless you and your hubby!

    I am a former military spouse--does that count? We were married for 7 years, during which he deployed to Iraq twice (total of 27 months) and was gone numerous other times for training and TDY. Feel free to friend me if you'd like, I understand your pain.
  • hey! I am an Air Force spouse as well! My husband is also TDY right now; he is still in the states for retraining though. I am here if you need a friend. :)

    Hey, me too! Started talking to a recruiter last week. Edit: That was supposed to quote baxgilter. Whoops.

    My husband recently got out of the Army, but he went almost straight into DoD contract work. Right now he's gone for a month. As much as I miss him, I am much better about keeping up with diet and exercise when he's gone!

    Army wife here. We are on a rotational training schedule so for 2 weeks I eat great and when he is home not so well, but at least he runs with me on the days he is home.
