Hello from a College student

WhyLime113

Hi there! I'm new. I downloaded the app, and it's pretty cool. I need to kick the Freshman Fifteen out the door that I gained last year, and just eat better in general. It's rough when the food I eat is cafeteria stuff!

I'm less concerned with weight, more so with healthy eating.
And an awesome community might help with that!

Anybody else a college student trying to get healthier or look better?

Hey! Yeah I sure am a college student and familiar with the freshman fifteen! We call it 'Maybomb' because in May it all of sudden hits you.
I just joined up to this site and am also focusing on being healthy more than losing weight. The eating well part is going to be my biggest challenge I think. I actually just moved out of campus accommodation so at least I don't have all that cafeteria temptation!

I'm definitely going to try to live off campus and cook my own meals when I move onto University. Maybe a place with a bit of a walk!
College students have it rough. We sit in class all day, study all night, work all weekend, and still have to find time to stay fit!

I wish! Unfortunately our school forces you to purchase the meal plan if you live on campus, so I need to eat there because I defintiely have no money for groceries
But I do try to eat better when I'm there and think about proportions

I'm also in post-secondary school and looking to drop a bit of the weight i gained freshman year. It's really difficult to balance eating healthy with a busy school schedule.

I'm also dropping my freshman weight! But I'm also working towards my goal weight - finally making progress. It feels great Feel free to add me - working on my last 15 pounds.

Yo. Good to meet you. I am also in college, and I just want to get into better shape al around. I'd be happy to be buddies if you want to add me.

I'm in the exact boat, except I'm a senior now and definitely gained twice the freshman fifteen lol. time to shed it all before graduation rolls around

When I was in college ours didn't have any sort of gym or track to run around or work out in like many do. I went to community college. So I ALWAYS took the stairs, never the elevator and when I wasn't studying between classes, I'd walk around the college/campus. And I ate at home so cafeteria wasn't much of a worry for me but that stupid mcdonalds was that was just conveniently down the street from the school but too far for walking distance or I would have been late :mad:

I was in college 20 years ago. I started my upward trend in weight gain in my freshman year, and It took 20 years for me to finally reverse it. I vividly remember, like it was yesterday, however. We could eat whatever we wanted in the dinning hall...they had chicken breasts, salad and fresh fruit, but i preferred to eat hamburgers and hot dogs. i remember the hot dogs were pink when they put them out on monday, and by thursday they were grey, but they still tasted hella good.

Hi! I am a Uni student. I don't go back to study until January but I am dreading all that trying to fit a healthy lifestyle around studying again, I hate sitting in lectures all day, I would probably be able to concentrate better if they let us sit on stationary bikes or x trainers or something... but nope horrible plastic chairs with dodgy swinging teenie tiny desks Should have studied sports
Feel free to add me! any other students too!

Hey! I'm just now graduating from college (well university, but got a B.A) and starting graduate school in October. It can be tough staying fit in college but all you need is enough dedication.

I approve all requests so if anyone wants some more friends, you can add me.
