As we're back at college, it's no question that the calorie consumption is a little bit more than the summer, due to buffet style meals, alcoholic beverages, late night munchies and studying snacks. But, no fear — it's still possible to get some extra exercise to keep the pounds off.

1. Take The Stairs

If you live on the fourth floor, or even just the second, always skip the elevator as tempting as it might be. If you're going up and down multiple times a day it can be a good extra workout.

2. Walk To Class

Whether it's a five-minute walk or a 20-minute walk, still walk. Chances are you're about to be sitting in class for an hour or so, so it'd be good for your body to get up and moving. And if you walk there, then you have to walk back.

3. Pick Up A Hobby

If you're not doing a sport, find something outside you enjoy. Me and my friend recently started playing tennis, so fun.

4. Grab Some Friends and Walk Or Run

A couple times a week will definitely help. And walking is so nice at night, especially now with the temperatures cooling down.

5. Buy A FitBit

Some of the girls in my house love these and constantly talk about how many steps they are getting day-to-day. You can even compete with your friends, and it gives you the motivation to move if you haven't reached your goal yet.

6. Go Out and Dance!

Yes, going out can actually help. It gets you out and about and moves around. You can surprisingly get a lot of steps! And when you dance, you'll definitely break a sweat.
