I finally got down to the 89kg(14stone) mark to make the application and finally submitted it last monday which im really chuffed about and I've got my barb test on the 3rd October. My fitness is heading in the right direction to with a best effort of 12.42 for my 1.5 alot better than my pathetic 15 and half minutes. Its been a long road to get where i am now but its going to be worth it. thanks to all the advice i received on here especially from Millar.

Good stuff mate!
I'm going for the Royal Corps of Signals, first choice is Electronic Warfare op, then comms systems engineer and comms op as my third choice.
You considered the signals? will your barb results i bet the jobs will be on your list.
My interview was postponed today until Monday. Day before I go on holiday so at least I can go away with a positive view. Hopefully my recruiter will get me booked on for pre selection for when i get back.

Unfortunatly my GCSE results go against me but I've picked 3 jobs which I like the sound of. Armoured Engineer, Driver/Communcations Specialist and Air Despatcher. I have to ring back next friday with my 3 choices and then onto the next phase whatever that is lol
