Well... I fell of the wagon 
Been months, octoberish, but I am running out of time to get healthy. I am a student nurse, only in my second semester, but by the end of the summer I want to start working for a hospital so I can start a relationship and get experience to get me that RN job later.
I know hospitals are scrutinizing more with the health of their staff. And what the hell kind of nurse am I going to be when I am so overweight? I will be telling my patients the importance of diet and exercise yet I don't even follow that myself. I think it would hurt my credibility as a nurse.
Well that changes today! Goodbye unhealthy me, you are never coming back.

I worked at a hospital for a long time.
98% of the nurses I worked with were over weight alcoholic chain smokers.
