Hello nurse

Hi there! I am a brand new member looking for inspiration and support. I would like to get in a healthier weight range, for my health but also to encourage my patients. Unfortunately I picked up bad habits during surviving nursing school and the first few years. My wonderful coworkers encouraged me to use this site when I told them of my goals. So please add me, chat with me, etc. I love helping people (hence being a nurse lol) and I too would love support. Cheers 👍

    Hi, I am not really new. I start and then fall off the wagon. I need some encouragement. Started again today. I need to loose at least 30 lbs. I decided to do Atkins with the help of MyFitnessPal. Its very easy to follow the macros with this app. I am a retired but young nurse, lol!!

    I am a nurse also. Just made my goal Saturday and am retiring next week. There are many challenges working as a nurse and eating well. Good luck on your journey and fiend me if you want.
