Where a new nurse with thirteen years of experience chronicles her journey to lose 187 pounds and life in general, all the while trying NOT to stab her co-workers in the neck with her pen.

Faux Pas
Um, yeah. So I've been in a real rut for the last week because I've been battling a case of pneumonia. I hate being sick but most of all I got depressed because my doc told me I couldn't workout until the pneumonia was cleared up. I had just gotten into a routine of eating right and going to the gym and then BLAMMO! Stupid pneumonia. Well it's clearing up finally but it's taking some time. I am not good about eating right when I'm sick and on top of that I've still been working (because if I can get the hours I'm working them after the past couple months of being forced to not work), so I've been MIA because I'm ashamed of myself. There are plenty of folks who can get sick and not throw everything out the window. I thought I was one but not this time. Yesterday I was helping another nurse with a VERY confused and agitated patient and in the midst of making sure she didn't fall and break her hip, she repeatedly called me a big, fat, hog. That did not help my mood. Stupid confused patients. Stupid pneumonia. Stupid rut. Well, I'm not going to take it anymore. Screw everything. I may not be able to exercise but dammit I can eat right.
