    Hello fellow nurses. I am a pediatric vent/trach nurse (LPN) and currently in school working on my 4 year RN. Feel free to add me if you would like. I normally works days but I do work the occasional night shift and boy oh boy is it hard to not eat to stay awake lol.

    I am an OR nurse and work 7a-3p. Sometimes I don't even get a lunch break till 2pm! Our Cafeteria has the saddest selection of food and by 2pm all that is left to eat is fries and chicken fingers that have all been fried (boo)
    I never get a chance to even to drink water between cases! Now I pack my lunch and have a large water bottle that I keep in the break room and try to drink it when ever I can. So far I have lost 5lbs and hope to lose at least another 15lbs
    Feel free to add me!

    I try to say "You can't care for others if you don't care for yourself first"

    I'm a RN. I work in the ICU doing 12 hour night shift. I started my weight loss journey around 157 lb. I've been making slow and steady progress. Feel free to add me so that we can motivate each other.

    I am also a BSN student, and I work as a CNA. While school and work are important, the best/biggest part of my life is being a mom (and parenting my two young kids with my good-guy husband).

    Nurses/fellow nursing students, please consider adding me as well. I promise I am a good/supportive friend!!!!!

    Homecare nurse, so not running around all day but bad eating habits on the road. Need good snack ideas. If you are not doing this already, EAT BREAKFAST. And make sure its packed with protein!!!

    I'm a RN working on my masters to be a NP. Working in a clinic is what scared me enough to start getting healthy and losing weight, saw way too many people killing themselves. It is really hard to eat well when you are away from home for so long. I would love to be friends with more nurses on here.

    I've been an ER nurse for more than 10 years! Tougher yet is that I work mainly night shifts and have small(ish) kids at home.. Which meeans up all day (eating of course) and then up all night( again..more eating) Trying to figure out how to eat and be healthy and not feel hungry all night(or the need eat all night even when NOT hungry!)

    Hello, I am a Cardiac nurse of 20 years. Very challenging to eat healthy with the workplace demands. Family members & patients always want to show their appreciation with boxes of cookies & chocolates. I now have found the willpower to say thank you for the thought and not indulge. Feel free to friend me. I really make a point of exercising intensely on my days off. I work 12 hour shifts.
