: Hi Jo --**I'm not sure what to tell you about that.**The weight chart I have is for OCS, though I didn't think it was different for enlisted.**Since they didn't say anything about it at your MEPS physical you're probably okay.**Even though it's a pain, you might want to think about losing 5 pounds before you leave just to be on the safe side ... the more hassles you can avoid the happier you'll be!**Also, if you're under from the start, you won't run the risk of being recycled through basic if you happen to gain a couple of pounds while you're there (unlikely though!).**It's worth asking your recruiter what would happen if they decided to be strict about the exact maximum, just in case.**I hope that helps you out a bit.**Good luck at basic and with your navy life.**Sarah**____________________________________ ____________________________Sarah,**Thank you for the help!!!!-Jo

I am 63 and a half inches and I weigh about 152-154.**I'm not heavy though.**I have a more muscular build (I'm short and stocky) then anything but I still am carrying some weight that I probably shouldn't.**To get on with it, I got my physical at MEPS and everything went fine.**They didn't say a thing about my weight (it wasn't even an issue.) yet I'm told buy your PRT standards that I'm supposed to weigh less.**Don't misunderstand me, I'm not saying your weight info is wrong but why didn't they tell me I have to lose weight?**Why aren't my recruiters telling me?**Can I still leave for basic and be at this weight?**Please write me as soon as you can!-Thank you Jo**
