I've caved in and done the crappy eating/eating fast food frequently this past month. I'm getting slowly better, but I definitely think that working out and spending time with friends helps SO much with deployment stress.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10569741824004570468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-584228167731927982.post-8960700656240370072010-01-02T18:24:49.773-08:002010-01-02T18:24:49.773-08:00Katie,

I admire you for resolving to exercise and watch your eating. I really need to get to doing some form of exercise!<br /><br />Blessings & Aloha!<br />(also..your photo of you and your hubby on the side "The Mr and Mrs" is so cute! And so is the photo of your furbabies :o)Personalized Sketches and Sentimentshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10540064662050920859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-584228167731927982.post-44044932000757851802010-01-02T12:21:52.498-08:002010-01-02T12:21:52.498-08:00Girl, you and I could talk for hours on deployment...Girl, you and I could talk for hours on deployment, stress, weight gain...ugh!

However, for weight loss, I swear by Weight Watchers - I started up again today.

She's had to deal with 2 deployments so far and I think she kicks it into high gear when he's about to be home. Good luck with your resolutions!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-584228167731927982.post-35106148503435508672010-01-02T06:05:48.925-08:002010-01-02T06:05:48.925-08:00I just weighed myself on NYE and just about died o...I just weighed myself on NYE and just about died of shock, I probably weigh the heaviest I have ever been. <br /><br />Our first deployment, I lost weight, the second I gained it. What I want to know is how I managed to stay skinny during that first one when basically all I ate was mac and cheese and drank coke, and gained during the second when I was actually going to the gym?Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14756861396922776236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-584228167731927982.post-62630982763471998172010-01-01T17:13:17.469-08:002010-01-01T17:13:17.469-08:00While I'm not an army wife, I can completely s...While I'm not an army wife, I can completely sympathize with the newly wed weight gain. It's so easy to become comfortable with your husband and just eat. Good luck with your weight loss goals - I'm right there with you!<br /><br />My best advice would be to keep some sort of food journal where you write down everything you eat and drink. It helps you to see exactly what you eat - you would be surprised how quickly it all adds up at the end of the day! Also, vary your workout routines (this comes from a personal trainer). It keeps your muscles guessing so they will burn more fat. If you do the same thing each time like always run on the treadmill or always lift the same weights, your muscles will become accustomed to these exercises and you will not see as great of results.<br /><br />Thanks for joining my blog - I'm a new follower to yours as well. I'm looking forward to hearing about your progress!Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16007497337771529664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-584228167731927982.post-67831109552596032042010-01-01T13:21:29.637-08:002010-01-01T13:21:29.637-08:00I can definitely sympathize with all the eating ou...I can definitely sympathize with all the eating out when they get home! Whew! I've put on a least 10 lbs since he got home in November...and we're getting married in 5 weeks!
