Damn that's a late board. Let the waiting re-commence. Might ask processor to continue moving forward with Pilot/NFO If i get it

I'm in the same boat, @SWOMan. The extra 6 week wait just seems brutal, despite my risk of NPQing from aviation (right on the height border.

(Sorry for the terrible pun...)

Trust me I wish I had your problem. Finally hitting 235 lbs on diet. Haven't had a sip of beer in 2 months. Can't even look at pizza without worrying about water weight. Trying to get to a lean shredded 210-220 lbs just so I have wiggle room

Yeah I've got the opposite problem. I can't gain weight and I put on muscle as slow as a snail moves. Takes months. Just trying to be strong so I can max out the IFT/PFT's

I'll tell you the same advice rich piana will tell you. Eat more. 6, 7, 10, 15 meals. ...what ever it takes.

I eat 4 meals a day and a pint of ice cream at night. Id rather not get diabetes in the process haha. I've got such an inefficient metabolism it's not even funny.

You are small :D

I have the same problem you do putting on weight though. I come in at 200lbs soaking wet after Thanksgiving dinner.

I know what you're saying, it's just hard to eat enough, man. I've been an athlete all my life, been lifting since I was in middle school, but even when I was playing ball in college and could eat whatever/whenever it was tough. Now that I'm working 50-60 hours a week, it's near impossible. Just slowly, slowly clawing my way back above two bills.

Good news, goldman, is that later in life we may have an easier time keeping it off. Maybe :rolleyes:

Yeah I don't care about getting huge just being strong. I figure the more active I am now the better off I'll be in life and in the Navy, if I get selected. Dropped being an endurance athlete to get strong so it's been a long process haha.

I used to be strong. Now I'm turning into an endurance freak for ocs. At my heaviest was squatting and deadlifting 500, max bench at 350. Now I don't even bench....just pushups. I did a power squat session and hit 345 for 4. I'm also down almost 40lbs. It's sad.....if I'm a pilot I may never get to "bulk" ever again
