Will I get sent home for being too skinny?

[Phrost_Bite]

Here's the deal, I've always been a naturally thin guy. I will be shipping out to PLC Seniors 2nd Increment in a few weeks but I am currently a few lbs under weight for my height. Does anybody think they will try to send me home after the initial weigh in? By the way, did the weight standards change? I was at PLC Juniors last summer and was fine with the weight standards. Maybe I lost weight.... Either way I'm going to start stuffing myself full of food because I don't want to take any chances.

I'm not a Marine, or nutritionist, but water weighs roughly 8lbs a gallon. Maybe if you were very well hydrated and slammed a half gallon or so prior to the weigh in, you should be able to weigh a few lbs more. Good luck.

Peanut butter and honey sandwiches, whole milk, Guinness, steak, bacon, potatoes (covered with butter, bacon, sour cream etc).

Get to know them. Make friends.

Here is a fun fact, Guinness draught has less calories and carbs than Budweiser...

I have been successful with the "slamming a half gallon of water before a weigh-in" metod. However, I would like to avoid it if possible. Having to piss like a horse moments afterwards and being forced to hold it sucks big time. On a brighter note I do get to eat whatever I want with out any consequences! Ahh skinniness... a gift and a curse...

Transfuse some of my 45 year old blood for yours and you'll be all set making weight.

You will have to make the weight standard by the time you graduate.

My Pops owns a McDonalds... I've been eating it on a near daily basis since roughly the age of 4. Like I said, I'm just a naturally thin fellow.

The appropriate term is "wiry." Not thin. Not skinny. Wiry.

OK. I hate you.
