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
my orientation is june 17th...what all did they tell you that you had to get done??
they told us that we had to have proof for MMR vaccines, TB test, Hep. B shot series, physical, and some other vaccine. We also have to have a background check done and sent to the school.
As well as shopping for supplies, uniforms, stethoscopes, etc. Which is probably my favorite part of all of getting ready for school!:redbeathe
And we just talked about a bunch of other things to expect in the fall.
yay im excited im ready to go to mine!! ive already got my stethoscope and bp cuff....what kind are you getting
we got to try some stethoscopes out at the orientation. i liked the littmann cardiology III because it has a pediatric and adult side. but i'm not sure yet. i've heard that the master cardiology are amazing and you can hear the blood in the heart. but i'm still undecided!
Yes, I would like to join your on-line weight loss club too.
When I heard that I'll have to be bathed by another student, it kicked my dieting motivation into high gear.
Presently, I am walking in the morning and that gives me energy and I also find that when I eat my veges before I eat anything else that I tend to eat less of the other things. And, that has to be a good thing. :chuckle
I will be throwing all rules out the window this upcoming weekend... my husband and I actually have a whole weekend without any kids and that is a miracle. So we will probably be eating out and just having a good time.
I only have stats for me and nightbloom this week. I will post them tomorrow to give everyone a chance to get them pm'd to me. I hope everyone is doing good:)
It's been a slow week for me. It's my friday at work so I'm happy about that. I work 2-12hr and 1-8hr midnight shift each week. The good things about this week is we got our stimulus check and I lost the 2 lbs I gained last week.
The bad thing is I messed up a scholarship oppurtunity by not getting my transcript done in time.
Hopefully, I will be able to find other oppurtunities.
Keep up the good work ladies! and if you want to be added to my list tomorrow give me a pm:)
Here are this weeks stats that I have. Tracylyn, I did not know how much you have lost all together or your goal.Fuuchan, I thought that you had lost 8 all together is that right? If you Pm me I will add those for next week
What I have is 30 lbs lost so far!!! but I know a lot of people have not reported their losses so it could be a whole lot more!
If you want to be added for next week pm your loss, loss to date, and goal and any exericse goal you may have.
Okay now I get to go buy all the neat supplies.... I got into the LPN program at Ivy Tech in Sellersburg. Didn't make the cut for the RN, but I figure I can apply to transition into the RN program when the time comes. Yay!! :cheers: :clpty:
I haven't checked my weight yet this week.... but I'll check tomorrow and see. I've had an icky week with doctor's appointments and getting ready to train my replacement person at work.
