Although, It says for students Everyone is welcome.
A few years ago I lost a significant amount of weight and increased my health by walking/running. I was involved with a support thread on another board. We shared our stats each week, our ups, and our downs. It was so helpful for me to be accountable for my actiions and numbers. Well, I was doing good, but had a surprise pregnancy now he is 2, and I am back where I was and then some.
With the unique considerations that come from fitting excercise and a healthy diet in during NS/and pre- reqs, I thought it might be nice to be able to share and support each other because we know better than anyone else the stress of time management and pressure of keeping our grades up.
I know that NS can be strenuous physically and I want to get in shape or at least a head start for this fall
Wish, I wish I was off for the summer. You have made me so jealous! I haven't had a summer off in 4 years and it had been 10 years before that! It's so a great time of year!
Summer classes start for me on May 20th. Anyone else taking summer classes? Plus I work full time....boo hoo!
Tullosrn...I am sending good karma your way for a good letter in the mail tomorrow!
Well luvs, I just got home from taking my Micro lab final....yuck. I'm praying that I got at least a 50 on it (yeah, it was that bad) I have one last test on Thursday then my final on Tuesday. If I can get a 70 on those two tests then I can pull a high C out of there and it seems like these days my new motto is 'C means continue'. I have A&P lab final on Thursday and class final on Next Wednesday. Then hurray for a free summer!!
Miss - congrats on taking your last two finals, when will you get your grades?
Tullo - praying for your letter, please let us know
Piglet - what are you taking this summer?
I'm hoping to get caught up on all my crap this summer (with stupid soon to be ex husband and otherwise) so that I can find a part time job in fall and concentrate on NS. Is anyone else starting with me in the fall?:heartbeat
i already know what i made on my a&p II test, it wasnt the greatest test ever, but i did okay and I have a high B in the class. and i'm still waiting on the other test score to be put online.
Hello everyone! Sounds like everyone is getting through finals alright! Just thought I would post my goal of 30 lbs. since I'm starting after my final on May 1st (probably should be held accountable for this! :) ).
Speaking of summer classes, mine start on May 28th so I have a little break before I take my dreaded statistics class. blech! I'm definitely NOT excited.
thanks for worrying with me! I am taking micro this summer, IF i get into NS. I took my a&pII lab final yesterday it was super ez...it was on the reproductive system. all my finals are next tues. and thurs but im not to worried i have a high A in apII lecture and lab right now so i dont have to do perfect.
That's it I have had it I am giving up on WW. I keep losing and gaining the same two freakin' pounds! I got on the scale today after having a really good couple of days only to find those two stupid pounds back on me. I am done! I am going back to South Beach starting today! I just can't bare to look at that scale and that number any longer. It's like a breaking point!
Fuuchan as for summer classes I am taking an intro to sciology which is funny cause I have taken several other scio classes but not that one and the NS I am applying for requires that one. I am also taking an algebra class.
so, i was watching ellen today, and this fitness lady was on there and said that 10 minutes on a little trampoline is like 30 minutes on a treadmill. i wonder if its true? i want a treadmill, but have absolutely nowhere to put it! so, maybe i should get a small trampoline, hopefully i could find room for it!
i really don't want to take micro this summer, i would rather be going to the beach with my family! but i'm only taking it if i get in to NS. still waiting waiting waiting on my letter....
My fingers are crossed that you get your letter tomorrow! Good Karma being thrown your way and all that good stuff.
I am not sure about the trampoline, but I love my treadmill. They are expensive but I have put many a mile on that thing. It's what got me down to a size 8 a few years ago and kept me there for a couple of years. It's the lack of using it that helped me pack the weight back on. I like to watch Discovery Health now while I am on it!
Good luck and try to squeeze some fun in this summer too!
MissRn you are in the same position i am...still waiting for my letter so i can decide whether im taking micro this summer or in the fall....i am already registered for the class this summer but ill i hear is how bad it is ...alot of ppl have told me not to buy the book because you dont use it but i think im goin to anyways just to be on the safe side.

i'm going to wait and buy the book after the class starts. i've had some people tell me that you don't use it, but also that the teacher tells you just to get one that you can read and that makes sense to you.
Piglet:thank you for the good karma! i sure need it!
but i'm only taking it if i get in to NS. still waiting waiting waiting on my letter....
