    Hahaha the nursing 20. So far, 15lbs for me. >_>

    Nursing student here, too. During clinical, I've met some wonderful RNs and hope to get to get to you guys' level soon... in terms of kindness, patience, intelligence and so much more.:)

    I am graduating in may also. Working through finals right now is killing me. I always eat when I study! and I have packed on about 20ish myself. I have about a month off before I go back for my last semester and I plan to really try to work on a routine that I can keep up while I am in my final semester. Hopefully I will be able to get it right this time =) good luck all.

    I just graduated with my degree in Healthcare Administration in March and have been working on Coding certifications for the past few months. While I didn't have the clinicals to deal with, I totally understand reading until your face falls off! LOL

    My sister is a nurse and I lived with her during her crazy ride, so I understand it. I used to be her study partner and I think that's what turned me on to the healthcare field.

    Good luck to you!

    >20 years RN mainly in emergency (UK and Australia) but now a nurse educator specialising in resuscitation. I've maintained a steady healthy body weight throughout my career - it can be done even with shifts and coping with stress

    Hi!

    RN here, been working night shifts for 5+ years in ICU/ER/med surg relief. The schedule can be very hard, especially with all the goodies/snack machine/quick snacks available that are not so healthy lol. However it is very rewarding, and with a little discipline and careful planning, it is possible to try to maintain a fairly healthy lifestyle. Good luck! The end is near and while nursing school is hard and yeah it sucks a lot of the time, its totally worth it :) Feel free to add me!
