Hi I am a nursing student in a 2 yr associates degree program. I just completed one yr and have the summer off. I have 2 kids, an 18mo and a 3mo. I am trying to lose weight and get in shape this summer.

    I'm a nursing student! Nice to meet you! I'm in my last semester of a 2 yr program with 1 1/2 years of pre-requisites prior. Have been in school for 3 years to achieve this goal. It's hard but we can do it! Add me.

    I just wrapped up my 2nd semester too. Off for the summer & plan to graduate next spring with my associates. I have 3 daughters 14, 8, & 3. Hoping that stress & studying won't induce too much munching :) Nice to meet you.

    I find that its so hard to diet when your under stress from schoolwork. Thats why I have been taking advantage of my summer off from school and trying to lose as much weight as possible before I return to school in september. Good luck to everyone on their weight loss and on becoming a nurse.

  • Hello! I am a 2 year nursing student as a part of an associates program. I have 2 kids 9 and 3. When I finish school in the spring I will have gone for 4 years!! (My advisors did not advise me very well :-/ ) In this past for years I have gained about 50lbs and I was already overweight from my pregnancy with my last child. I am ready to change my habits, so far I really like MFP

    Hi guys, I am almost finished with my first year of nursing :) I am planning to graduate in 2016.. maybe earlier if I can handle it. I would love to find other student nurses! My weight loss journey started in the first few weeks of my degree back in April.
