WOW! I've read so many posts regarding diets and "weight woes" that I have decided to create a poll to see how many pounds, if any, the average student has gained since starting nursing school. I could apply the nursing diagnosis "Altered Nutrition: More Than Body Requirements" to myself LOL!!

Oh yeah my 2 years and 30 lbs of Weight watchers went down the drain. I didn't gain it all back but close.

I'm now attempting to journal again and exercised tonight. I can't afford meetings anymore but I'm gonna get this weight down. I don't want to be an overweight nurse but I've been OW all my life.

I'm hoping ot change that~!
