Congrats on making it this far in your journey and losing 30 pounds already! That's great!
I'm so sorry you're having to go through this with your guy deployed. That's extra hard. I know you'd rather have him by your side or at least on the other side of the phone at this point! Hopefully you'll hear from him soon. Stay proud of the work he's doing over there, and know that the work you're doing here is all going to make for a healthier you.

Congrats on your weight loss! you sound like you are really moving forward
I know how hard it is about your Marine being gone... mine is deployed also and I miss him terribly. It sounds like you are going to be busy doing lots of school stuff! Best wishes to you and I hope you hear from your guy soon.

Glad to see an update and that you are doing so well, moving ever forward in this process!
Congratulations on 30 pounds lost so far. That is awesome! Congratulations also on your schooling choices. Hang in there and hopefully your marine will be home soon! Look forward to hearing your sugery date announcement!


Congrats on the 30 lb being gone for good!!! Let us know your date!
It is so hard when the other half is deployed. All of us military spouses understand. Mine is retired now and I sometimes tell him if he doesn't behave I'm going to send him back to sea! LOL Are you able to keep in touch with him with through email? That is a real miracle to an 'old' Navy wife like me. I would sometimes not hear anything for 6 weeks then receive 10-15 letters at once. We learned really quick to number our letters because we would get confused with references to a previous letter that did not ever show up. lol I am sure you will hear from him soon. I will certianly keep him and you in my prayers.
Study hard and you will do great!!
Good luck,
Vera

Thank you all for the surport! Actually we both have myspace and we talk thru that but since some stupid person has been leakin info out they shut everything down so that why i havent talked to him since the 22nd.... it so hard bc im use to talking to him everyday since march when he left but thank god he comes home in the middle of OCT!!!! Im just scared bc he vents on me when he calls and without me to vent to he holds it all in and that makes him hard to deal with when he comes home... so im lookin forward to him coming home but yet not to the month of him screaming at me in his sleep for me to get down and cover lol trust me it scared me the first couple times but i got use to it. SO PLEASE PRAY FOR ME BC ILL PROB. WILL STILL BE HEALING WHEN HE COMES HOME!
ps. everyone always ask why a marine? Its everything that makes them a marine but i can't lie THAT DAMN uniform!! lol and i love to have any reason to put him in dress blues!!!

Don't you want to pop someone in the kisser for what we used to call Loose Lips. You know the saying Loose Lips Sink Ships!. My son is active duty Navy and of course my DH retired after 24 years in Navy. So I really do understand where you are coming from. DH used to come home and he would tense up in his sleep and the cut loose with a punch and never wake up. He only cuffed me the 1st time. After that I would wake up and slid out of the bed!!! LOL He never was one to raise his hand to me or the children. Only happened right after he would come home and in his sleep!! Crazy Huh?
You both will surely be in my prayers!
