Nurses, Nursing Students, Pre-Nursing Students?

Options
Hi Everyone,
I'm Jen and I'm a 23 year old nursing student looking to lose weight and get healthy so that I can be the best nurse that I can be. I graduate in May of 2016 with my ADN and December 2016 with my BSN.

I have about 150lbs to lose but I'm wondering if there is anyone out there that loves nursing as much as me that would want to be friends along this journey!

    Hey there I'm a nurse :) I've been an oncology nurse for over 23 years so obviously I kinda like it..lol! I've got my MS in nursing education but gonna be working on my ACNP certification. I've been in and probably will be in school forever..

    I'm new here (fairly new) so I'll be checking in often

    I have been a nurse for 30 years. I work in the operating room and do pre-operative phone calling to patients.
    I am glad to be friends, feel free to add me.
