Any UK students?

As MFP seems to be dominated by older Americans with kids.... any younger brits out there?!
I know from my first couple years that it's SO hard to combine student life with losing/maintaining weight but so happy I've now discovered MFP as a great tool to guard against putting on too much!

Yep! I'm 18 and hopefully starting uni next year, so I'll have more control over what I eat and how much exercise I can do!0

However, the summer after A levels and when I first started uni I kind of lost weight the unhealthy way by skipping meals and exercising every day, which wasn't sustainable!
I ended up putting it all back on again in 2nd year!
So that's why I like the balanced mfp strategy nowadays

Hey! I'm 19 and studying in London, I definitely think my eating habits and workouts have improved since moving away from home (surprisingly!). It's nice to see other UK students on MFP too0

I'm 21 studying at UOB right now - yeah watching how you eat is definately hard when you see everyone else binging on virtually everything0

well done reaching out to the Brits - uni is a time when some people don't eat particularly well (I've a son and daughter both at university) so its great to see someone making an effort to contact fellow UK members. Good luck with the weight loss everyone (and the studies....!)0

hey!! oh great i'll add you Wow must be so hard to think about healthy eating with such a stressful career, so big kudos to you for being on here! I'm thinking about law as a possible path after graduating but yeah, I'm worried about the high-stress lifestyle!0 -

Hey, I'm 20 and I'm starting my nursing degree in September. The only thing I'm not looking forward to is trying to maintain my weight loss and healthy eating while doing 37.5 hours a week + self study! Add me if you like0
