Oh, sorry. I must unconsciously feel guilty about it or something. Hehe. Yeah, we raise cattle, so we have that - it's pretty much a staple out here on the plains, although I am really trying to...
LOL - how funny. Hehe. We must all want to be bad. I actually think we are good in the protein department - out here we are very much carnivores, so plenty of 'bad' meats (mostly cattle since we...
Cute Tweety - I do believe that might have been a freudian slip, eh? Hehe. How's it going Zoe? I have been good - oatmeal for breakfast yesterday & doing that again today. Had a whole-grain pita...
Will do Tweety - as long as you promise to return the favor!!! Hey Zoe - you are such a great motivator! I bought some whole-grain pita bread halves yesterday, got some dark green lettuce (don't...
LOL Tweety - I know just what you mean. I just got back from my trip to get my award in Vail and oh my gosh was I 'bad'. It's awful because now I feel like a slug. I started out yesterday pretty...
Thanks Tweety! I know what you mean - nothing like school stress to crash a diet hard! Ok, I have decided books on CD are the best thing ever invented! I don't know why I didn't think of this...
Hi Kim, welcome! Yes, the NET that I took was timed, they gave about one minute per question, however it was not broken out that way, there was a set amount of minutes and about the same amount of...
That's cool Tweety - a nice coffee break is great. :) I did awesome on my injection check-off, so I am really happy about that! Have a great, healthy day
Hello russiangirl - I honestly don't know. I would go with what your school says, they should know. As far as our school goes, the results do affect acceptance. At our school you have to be at so...
Good deal Tweety - personally, I think you should reward your hard working self and go to the movie! After all, how often do you really do that? You work hard, you eat well, you exercise and you...
Jahra - that rocks! I am so glad, how awesome!!! Have fun with your classes and let us know how it goes! I just got the CD I ordered the other day, but haven't had a chance to pop it in yet....
But of course. :) Yes, A&P can be very trying at times. I had to take that one at no more than 15 minute intervals when studying because otherwise it was too much information and it would start...
ROFL! You guys are too much. Thank you everybody for congratulating me, I am very excited!!! :) I too adore avocados. I brought cheerios to the office with fat-free milk for breakfast, then I also...
Thanks Zoe - that is really awesome! We make our own version of V8 juice every year from produce out of the garden and then have it through the winter - I don't know what all we put in it, but it's...
Hi and welcome to allnurses! You might do a search on this (also search NET) as there are quite a few posts on this. In general, if you are taking the NET (there are others out there, so be sure you...
Thanks Tweety! I think I may try to ditch the low-carb thing for a while and go with more balanced meals. I don't want to hurt my body trying to lose weight and it's not working all that well...
Thanks Tweety, that's what I was trying to get at but you said it much more eloquently. I would also suggest contacting the school you want to attend because every school is a little bit different and...
Hi and welcome! I am currently a nursing student and here is how our school does it: First you have to complete a series of pre-reqs (i.e. A&P I, A&P II, Microbiology/Pathophysiology, Human...
Thank you Jules. I agree with you that I think it is rediculous for nursing schools to "highly recommend" not working. It would be nice to not have to work, but that is not reality for most people....
Thanks Tweety. Is there anything extra you do (aside from diet/exercise, which I really have been working hard on) to try to help push it down? I gave up the soda last week and am going with water,...
I work full time, have two little kids, and go to evening/weekend classes. Two days a week I have to leave my house at 6:00 a.m. and get home at 11:30 p.m. due to school. Every other weekend is like...
