As we all can recall from our freshman year, the dining hall was the place to be. Whether it was Kennedy Commons (or as I liked to call it, K Com) marketplace, or fresh express, if you had a meal plan, it was game over. All in all, freshman 15 was a real thing. And a real wake up call for everyone. Being a college student is great. Eating whatever you want, whenever you want is also great - but in the end, it'll cost you and your health. So, here are some health tips to guide you throughout college!
Make a Workout Schedule
Exercising as well as having a well-balanced diet is the best way to go. So, figure out a specific time and day to workout and try to adhere to that during each semester!
Choose Healthy Snacks
It's easy to grab a bag of chips when your starving during class, but packing a few nutrition-packed granola bars (read those labels!), fruit, or celery and peanut butter will curb that hunger right away! And it won't leave you feeling more tired and hungry. Win- win right?
Prepare More Home-Cooked Meals
Walking over to Chipotle or Blaze Pizza is easy to do if you live right near it (like me), so making meals once in a while can help save you money and extra calories! So, instead of going to Chipotle every other day for dinner (I might have done that once...), make your own burritos! It doesn't take too long and you can put as much guac as you want! (Because isn't that all we really want in life anyways?)
