new to this forum....

hey all, new this forum i was just wondering if anyone that is on here are stationed here at fort sill, lawton area.....i am trying to get a walking, exercising group, i think it is more fun and goes bye faster when someone is with you...any way just a random thought.

Not in the area, but welome!  This is a great group and good for you for making that comittment.  I am signing up for a water areobics class with my Mom and a friend of hers.  The sad thing is the little old ladies are in much better shape than me and will totally kick my butt, but good for them and good for me for getting out there.

I'm too far away too :o(  But, I hope you find someone!!  I wish I had someone here too :o( Nice to have you pop in.  Hope to get to know you better. Dot* (hoping to have wls soon!)

its so sad of me to say but i stay more focus when i have someone with me because they will push me to go...they wont take the im too tried or i dont feel like it as an excuse.....i do walk just not as long when i am by myself, and i like going to the gym that is here on post, they have t.v.s on the there treadmills and elipticals(sp) so you dont even realize how long you are on there, but how do i get there is the question? once i am there i am fine...anyway enough of my rambling...hope everyone is having a good day...i am one month out now and down a little over 30lbs, i posted new pics the other day...thanks for the replies.

Welcome to the board. I am not in the area. Have you tried a military spouse board? I know of one and there are a lot of Ft. Sill wives on it.

There are a couple that I've seen post who are from the Lawton area...they may just not be online today.  Read through the past posts and look where people are from.  Then, contact them and ask if they'd be interested in joining you to walk. I'm in Edmond, or I'd be walking with you. Good luck! Cathy

I know exactly what you are saying about having the support of a friend to work out with or walk with...  I also understand the "once I'm there I'm fine, but how do I get there" syndrome!! All too familiar to many of us, I'm sure! Dot*

I live in Lawton and can use Ft Sill and would love to get together for some walking and have never gone to the gym because I  won't go alone.  I asked before on the board and no takers from are area. Hope to meet you for a walk soon. Debbie

Welcome to the group!  We're glad to have you! Tonja

Welcome!!!
