Hi everyone,

I'm Jen. I'm a new MICU RN, and I've been struggling with my weight forever. I was diagnosed with Hashimotos thyroiditis about 2 years ago and have been trying to get back to baseline ever since. I'm only 25 so there are a lot of things in life I still want to do..a lot of which would be hard/impossible at this weight.

I have >100 lbs to lose and I'd love to have people who will do it with me and keep me accountable.

Thanks!

    I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism when I was a kid now on here to help me stay motivated and lose about 50-60 pounds.

    I am also a ICU nurse! I work in a small but busy, highly understaffed ICU. I work all 12 hour shifts, 2 days, 2 nights, then 5 days off rotation! I also have at least 100 lbs to loose. I would love to hear what others do!
