I can't be the only overworked grad student on these boards. Come out come out wherever you are!!

    Not quite a grad student YET, but hopefully soon. Crossing my fingers that I get in? (Here's to hoping!) BUT... yes, just doing my undergrad thesis was awfully tiring. I can only imagine what grad work is like. Though... I imagine it probably feels more rewarding than courses upon courses. Anyhow.

    I'm a graduate student! I just finished my first year as a clinical psychology PhD student. I'm working on my MA thesis this summer as well as other research endeavors. It's definitely difficult to stay on track. Feel free to add me. :)

    Grad student checking in! It is very difficult to stay on track while working full time and going to school full time. I am just counting down till I am done with school. I figure when I graduate next spring 2 masters degrees should help me advance in my career (dual masters program in business and public health). Fingers crossed at least that I am able to get a handle on it all.

    I'm a Grad student! Just finishing my first year of my Masters in Counselling Psychology =) I think being a Grad student and stress eating go hand in hand, haha.

    So psyched for this group, pun intended!

    Another grad student here! Finished year one as a genetic counseling student, now I'm onto clinical rotations. I would like to thank the stress of last semester for 5 unwanted pounds I'm a week away from being rid of.

    Sitting at work myself. Working the late shift tonight (3-8 pm) so I stopped at Subway to get dinner. I've logged everything I have with me and that puts me at 480 calories over my budget for today... but I figure I can always back-edit what I didn't eat, and that's better than forgetting to log something.

    I'm in my last year of classes in a PsyD program- beginning to apply for my year long (move away from home) internship.

    Graduate Student here. In my last year of my degree in Information Design and Communication. My problem is finding time to cook when I have a paper due. Who has the time? I either have to prepare something ahead of time which doesn't always work or stop by Wendy's for a side salad and baked potato. Otherwise I would starve. Oh the BF has been known to stop by and cook dinner as long as I let him play Madden afterwards. :)
