Hello Marines!
I am suppose to ship out in about 2 months. Currently I am 67" (5'7") and weigh 188 pounds. My DEP weight was 197 and according to about.com and what I have read on the forums, my shipping weight is 176. I can do the IST no problem, but I am just worried about my ship date coming up and possibly being over 176 pounds. If I am over 176 pounds will I not be able to go to boot camp?

Do you not have a Recruiter? Have they not done a pre-ship brief with you?
