Ok now I'm a little pissed off! The Army decided to change it's standerds on weight...yeah for toothpicks. Where I was just fine I'm now have 5% too much body fat... I'm so mad I can't see straight! I just cut out soda and now I just want to starve myself becaus I have one month to get it under controll or they won't let me go to basic. I want to go so bad! I've been working so hard. When I firs joined I could do no push ups like 3 sit ups and my mile was like 9.55. Now I can do 10 push ups 28 sit ups and my mile is 8.35. Those are all in one miunute. So if any of you guys have any solid tips on body fat reduction please let me know. (I'm not into falling for diet pills...they are a waste of time and money) I need help please guys! thanx.

I promised to keep all of you posted on my progress in the Guard. Well I will be shipping to basic training in 15 days. Yes, I am scared but it's just because I have to be away from home and my daughter. I'm actually more sad than scared. I'm going to miss my daughters 2nd birth day and my birthday for that matter. Not really my idea of a good time to spend your 22nd in AIT. At least I hope I'll be in AIT as opposed to Basic. My grandmother is upset with the fact my MOS is a combat MP...She want's me to change my MOS to something that doesn't put me right in the middle of the hot spots...I told her I wanted to fly helicopters...that didn't set well either. My argument was I woluldn't be in the middle of it I would be abouve it. I don't think she found it very funny. I'm bursting with excitement and I can't wait until I go but at the same time I'm just not sure about all of this. I know it's going to be tough but I wouldn't be doing it if it was easy. I need chalenges in my life and I feel the need to push myself beyond my normal limits to see what I'm made of and what I can truly accomplish when I put everything into it. I'll try to keep you all up to date the best I can so enjoy and wish me luck. Love you all ~Destiney~

Well my friends I did it! I was sworn in yesterday and will be an MP. I'm so excited and sad all at the same time. I'm sad because I'm gonna be gone for 20 weeks and my little girl is gonna grow up so much in that time. This really is all for the best so I'm excited. I'll be shipping out on April 11 for basic and AIT. My baby's daddy is happy I'm doing something with my life but his new girlfriend is pissed because she's gonna have to play mommy while I'm away...I know she hates me so it's ok I'm not too fond of her either. So now I'm just gonna have fun and spend time with my little princess until I have to go.

Well I just took the ASVAB yesterday morning and my recruiter said my score is what they call alpha so aparently I can have the job I want. I want to be an mp so i'm excited! Most of my friends are pissed that I'm going into the military but I just wish they would support me 110%. I'd be behind anyone of you guys no matter what you wanted to do. I'm signing on Tuesday so I'm not changing my mind at all!
