    I eat pretty much the same things every day. I am a vegetarian and doing low carb so I don't have much choice. I eat eggs with cheese and 2 cups coffee for breakfast. Lunch is either a salad with olives , cucumbers and feta or a low carb wrap with cheese, tofurkey and mayo. Dinner is usually a veggie burger and salad Or broccoli salad or some other veggie like asparagus.I don't see anything wrong with eating the same thing as long as it has nutrition in it.

    That diet is pretty much terrible.. you're lacking so much nutrients. I can give you a proper diet plan if you want...

    I don't know why I am even posting in here, other than the 113 pound 5'6" girl who has purple fingers and is always cold if the temperature drops below 80. Bloating and abdominal pain are huge red flags, too. I figure she's on self-destruct, but then so was I at her age.


    Lots of excuses, but then so had I.

    Terrible diet, pretty much void of nutrition. It has to be affecting her ability to concentrate and learn during her classes.

    I just hope she wises up before doing irreparable serious damage to her brain and organs.

    ^Yeah, agreed. There is something not right with this situation.


    Ummm...just in case...just going to put this here: http://www.nationaleatingdisorders.org/find-help-support

    another rare instance where we're on the same page.

    OP please consider talking with someone. Your food habits are incredibly unhealthy.

    Hey, everyone! Thanks for all the input!

    I've changed my diet just a tiny bit since I've posted. I'm now eating the breaded Tilapia for dinner. The only thing that I think that cancels out that diet change is the skipping lunch. It's not that I want to skip lunch, but that I have to finish papers, meet deadlines and obviously have classes to attend.

    Yesterday I ate at my dad's house and cooked the Tilapia and fried a few tostones...so I had that.

    I've been eating the bananas i bought, so I guess that's an improvement.
    I've bought a few turkey sandwiches in replacement of Chefboyardee.


    What can I complement my Tilapia with that's not rice ? I just it eat it alone.

    Eat a bag/serving of frozen veggies with your tilapia

    I think i did this in college

    Breakfast: Ramen Noodles
    Lunch: Ramen Noodles
    Dinner: Spaghetti/beer


    I did not say it was healthy, but it was dirt cheap so I could afford beer.

    yup.

    many of us were in college. you have time for lunch.

    nothing about your relationship with food is healthy, please listen to the plethora of advice given in this thread.

    I went to college and was a pretty serious student. I still managed to eat all my meals. Humans need to eat. You won't be an effective student if you start suffering from nutritional deficiencies. You are already underweight. It's worrisome.

    I don't think any of you can truly judge what my situation in college is....it's pretty common in my faculty/concentration to overhear someone say "No he comido y tengo clase ahora mismo. " or "I haven't eaten and I have class right now."
    Tomorrow will be another busy day and I will obviously have to eat something before my 3-hour Lab.

    The university here in Puerto Rico is a mess....you always have to be on your toes. I'm trying my hardest to be able to study in the U.S. when I finish my bachelor's.

    When it comes to grades and finishing work, I'd rather wait a few more hours to take time to eat than not turn in the work and lower my grade.
