What is the Army Weight Control Program like?

I'm only a few percentage points over the acceptable body fat standards. If I went to a recruiter and was placed in the WCP, what's it like? Is it basically just a booklet on how to lose weight? Is it somewhere you go or is it done at home?Thanks!

Recommended Answer:

The Army Weight Control Program is not a program for people trying to get in to the Army. It is a program for Soldiers who are overweight. They get enrolled in the program for being overweight and are in it until they are no longer overweight.You also not allowed to participate in the physical training program at the Recruiting office. That is strictly for those who have already enlisted.We can also not coach you in to losing weight. We are not certified to do so, if you were to become ill or injured as a result the Army would liable.
