Is it possible for a male 290lbs, 6'1ft, 38' Waist, 2XL Shirt to join the military? I wanna join not only because Im sure that Ill lose alot of weight and get me in excellent shape, but It will give me an action filled job and a chance to make a difference. I eventually wanna be a Seal.

Anyways so is it possible for me to join the Military now?

I would ask this in the wannabe forums. There are a lot of recruiters there who would probably be able to give you a good answer.

odds are that you are to big. The weight limit is like 206 for your height.

Yes you're probably too big now but if you are willing to work at it put together a workout routine and loose some weight. Some recruiters will help you with this. You can also get tips by asking in the Wannabe or recruiting forums.

Alot of people have to loose weight before they can get in.

I am a former recruiter. The Army does not go by weight, but body fat percentage. There is also a way of getting in if you are over your bf percentage. A 38 waist is small for someone of your height. I'm only 5'7" and have a 38 waist. What is your neck size?
