Hello, my name is Amber. I have been with my husband since our senior year in high school. He joined the Navy right after graduation and we married 8 months later. We've been through it all together, deployments, 6 years active, two tours to Afghanistan and he is currently on his 14th year as a Navy reservist. Our oldest…

Way to go!!!

I too have just found out that I have a sensitivity to gluten. However, my youngest daughter is SEVERELY allergic to nuts and peas. I am struggling trying to figure out what to fix. It seems like all good recipes I find have some sort of nut with it (almond flour, almond milk....etc.). I'm really glad I found this post, it…

Good job!!

You are an inspiration. You look amazing!

The waiting is the hardest part. I hope he returns home to you soon!

I agree with everyone here. My husband is getting ready to deploy again and I've been in the same boat as you. I enjoy my time when I'm with him (he is in training right now over 1,000 miles away), I try not to obsess over the calories/fat and give myself some slack. I eat half of what I usually eat when we go out to…

Congratulations!!! I'm sure you have been counting down the days:)

You look great!

You look great!

Hi everyone! I am married to a Navy Chief. We have been married for 16 years and started out as high school sweethearts. We have three kids, 14,11 and 10. My husband recently left for another deployment to Afghanistan. I am working on eating healthy, exercise and in general changing our lifestyle while he is deployed. I am…

I'll join you. I'm a military wife also. My husband just deployed to Afghanistan and I'm working on changing my lifestyle, eating habits, and exercise while he is gone. I have a dress hanging in my closet that I am hoping to wear the day he returns home!

I just picked up the 30 day shred DVD last night. Planning on starting it today.

You look great!

I've been sticking to a 1,200 calorie diet as well (somedays a little over). I'm new here at MFP and am learning alot of information. I've been working out hard but haven't been eating my exercise calories....I wondered too about this and wasn't sure if I was going to hinder my weightloss by not eating back my exercise…

Thanks for all of the information everyone is putting here. I too have a big fear of loose skin after losing all my weight. This has been very helpful. I too would like to know how heavy of weights we should be lifting to help.....

Wow....good job! You can really see the change...

You both look great! I can't wait until I can see that number on the scale!

You look great!

I'm 5'5 I hate putting my starting weight but am going to anyhow. SW: 284 (tight sz.. 24) CW: 262 sz. 20 GW: 165 I don't know how to put pictures here but am adding some to my profile in just a few....

Hi, I'm a mom to three kids. A boy (14) and two girls (11 and 10). I'm working on losing my weight while my husband is deployed. So far I've found that exercise is my best friend....it's how I'm coping with this deployment. I do 60 minutes on the elliptical every morning, drink lots of water and *try* to eat better. I've…
