It is bad being in college and having a cafeteria, 2 fast food cafes, snacks in the room, and a required meal plan permiting 3 meals a day. I have been trying to occupy my time more so I don't snack, but the issue is when I get to the cafeteria or other food places on campus... I just eat and Eat and EAT! DOes anybody know a way to curb appetites in a heathy way or any other tips?

Have a cup of tea. Hot makes the stomach feel full. If not, go for the rice cakes!0

Hello! I am in college to and have had the same problem.
I am not to sure about your meal plan, but I changed mine to 1 a day. So that I am not comsantly surrounded by all the bad stuff.
And I turned all the snacks in my room to healthy ones! Alho since I have a sweet tooth I took out anything that will get me started on cravings.
Some examples:
Soups (nile spice specifically)
almonds
popcorn
yougurt
veggies
so it doesnt hurt to snack as long as its nutrient rich! Instead of that garbage they want you to eat xD0 -
fruit or granola for fiber, cheese for fat. the fiber fills you up the fat keeps you full. apples and blue cheese are my favorite after class snack.0
