What do Marines eat?

[RK0931]

She is not a reservist, she's active duty and works a desk jockey MOS at a base in the middle of nowhere.

She's on track to be a terminal lance, as most of the Marines that end up like this are.

Very few active Marines make it to this level, and those that are on the edge know it, and are constantly reminded of it until they fix themselves or they are on their way out the door. Reserves on the other hand, this kind of ****, although not to the exact extent is far more common. I'd say overall the Corps has far fewer fat bodies, but we're also a far smaller force, so take it for what it's worth. I'd like to see some DoD statistics but that will never happen.

However, I've seen solid Marines given the boot for just being unable to tape, regardless of their actual PFT/CFT scores.

Most likely she has already been tagged for separation for failing to comply with the standards. I know a few Marines that could not lose the weight and they were gone after about a year. This marsh mellow is a disgrace to the Marine Corps; I'm sure she knows it too.

Me thinks too many maple nut cakes or brownies from the MRE's.

Yeah it's the same in the Army it takes at least 8 months of negative progress to separate someone.

I thought it was just all called getting fat, nothing a little PT and change of eating habit can't solve but apparently people smarter than me decided it's a medical condition. And now what do you know all these overweight people have this medical condition. Apparently there are drugs out there that can cause people to gain some massive weight. I need to be prescribed some of this.........

Props to her for completing boot camp though

BTW some guys in SF are overweight but they aren't fat.
