Hi,
I found your other thread and responsed to it. I would love to be your buddy. Hopefully we can encourage and inspire each other. My husband is prior Air Force (7 Years) but he was told to be prepared for at least 220 days of being gone every year so he decided to cross over to Coast Guard. Now (he is on a C-130 not the boats) he is gone about two weeks out of the month unless it is for school then could be longer. I can live with that.
I would like to lose about 20 pounds in the next 5 months. We have orders to Kodiak Alaska and would love to be fit when we go there. I want to be able to go hiking and sightseeing without getting winded real fast.
I exercise 5-6 days a week as well, I drink 10 glasses of water of day. I do very well as far my eating goes during the week but weekends
are a different story. We go out to eat every Saturday so I just need to learn to make better choices.
My goals for the next 5 months are:
1. drink my water daily
2. exercise at least 5 days a week
3. make better food choices

I am on several different groups as well but I am more of a lurker. I do fine when my husband is gone as well. Thankfully he is a big veggie eater and not much on carbs so that helps. I try to make a protein (roast, chicken or fish) and a salad for dinner. I throw in another veggie (broc-my kids favorite, green beans) to go with it. Lunch for me is pretty basic a salad with halibut or tuna. Breakfast is oatmeal. I tend to make the same things for the most part.
