Let me start by saying...I HATE P/T. However, over the last few years the Navy has slowly taken a stronger grasp on P/T.
With that I have had to take a harder look at myself and my habits towards P/T. When I first arrived on Diego Garcia, I was as out of shape as I have ever been. could barley runa quater mile and I weighed in at a plump 215.
I had dropped some weight when I was in New Orleans, however, my heart wasent really in keeping it off and went I became very disillousioned with my commands P/T program so I gave up and quickly put back on the pounds.
I think my disillousenment came from them pushing P/T down my throat at every turn. Plus I was scoring Satisfactory on my P/T tests but it wasnet good enough for them and they kept herding me up and down the road like cattle.
Now here I am in D.G. After I had been here a few months my boss told me I had to drop some pounds and he entrusted me to go do it. No real pressure. Just go do it. OK...I can do this.
So I hit the elliptical and the track and have slowly dropped down to 195.
I seem to be stuck there...cant seem to drop below that...alas.
However, with what I have ahead of me I feel better knowing I am in better shape than I was when I got here. I can make it down to the mile marker and turn around and run back...maybe not as fast as those people who I work with(most of whom are 14 years younger than me) but hey I am out there and I am doing it.
