I am currently a full time nursing student who has gained almost 65 pounds since being in school for the last two years. I want to be at a healthy weight when I graduate in December 2017, so I can be a positive role model for my future patients!

We are in the same boat, Ashley, almost word for word! I gained 60+ pounds between 2015-2016, largely due to the stress of a toxic work environment. I resigned my position last month and am focusing on getting healthy again. It sounds like you have a great boyfriend, like mine (who says I'm beautiful no matter what), but I don't feel beautiful and I know I'm not healthy like this. Kudos to you for having a fighting spirit and never giving up on yourself! It's awesome that you want to be the best example you can be as a nurse also. Thanks for sharing your story! Go forth and kick a$$!!!

Sounds to me like you have the motivation all built up to get this done! Just keep in mind, you will have a few rough times during all this don't let it get you down, make those the hurdles that just make you stronger! YOU CAN DO THIS!
