NURSECURSE

This curse develops in the early stages of pursing a nursing degree. With lack of time and concern, it is almost certain that a nursing student will stuff his or her face with crap that should not be considered "food", and put on some poundage. Of course the excuse of convenience is not a good one. Since after all they sell granola bars, salads, and bottled water in the cafeteria. Nonetheless, we always push the "cherry coke" button or opt for the snickers bar. Stress and exhaustion fogs our conscience and these actions all become rationalized and accepted. In addtion to poor nutritional choices, we take elevators instead of the stairs, we spend more of our time sitting than we do anything else, and we also tell ourselves "there is no time for exercise". But we know that is complete bullshit since we spend at least an hour if not more checking and rechecking facebook and emails.
