There's nothing like a beginning of the school year to make every college student feel self conscious about their weight and appearance.
I have personally been on and off MFP for a while, but I thought that I could use some motivation and updates from other college students across the states.
Or I suppose just anyone in general. (:

I know exactly what you mean, I'm at university in the UK. Freshers week isn't exactly good for dieting either!0
-
I completely understand, and on top of that, there is way too much work to get done. How can you find time to workout?0

I'm a grad student -- would be happy to have student friends to trade encouragement with. Good luck!0

Welcome!!!! I am a college student, feel free to add me0

Going into my last semester of college in about a week!0
-
Will add you!!! Started my senior year this week.....busy busy time and don't want to let me eating and exercising fall by the wayside!0

Oh, man. I'm only commenting because I graduated in May and all of my friends still in school just started back on Wednesday and I WANT TO GO BACK, so badly. It's scary out here in the real world! Believe it or not, I want classes and homework and papers!
That aside, though, my junior year was like the best return I ever had. I'd lost 20 pounds over the summer and couldn't run into ANYONE who didn't notice. Maybe it'll be like that for you!0 -
Im actually quite excited for school to begin, tho I am worried that adding all of my school work on top of my job is going to make it hard to eat healthy! I already have a hard time eating well during weeks that I work a lot of crazy hours!
But anyone add me! Im sure I will be needing the motivation as well!0 -
I started at the University of Louisiana and they had a great cafeteria. Now I'm at community college and it seems harder to eat right with long classes. Plus I stay up late studying now more than I did at ULL.
Feel free to add me, I"m better at support than being healthy.0 -
Hey!! I'm another college student. You guys can feel free to add me. I just started my senior year. I'll gladly support a fellow student!0
-
I'm actually going back tomorrow for my senior year and I'm terrified because I decided to just stick to the dorms after a horrible apartment/roommate experience so I'm stuck with the cafeteria food. My avoidance of processed foods that has worked rather well for me this summer might be coming to an end! And, well, there is no such thing as a healthy breakfast in a college cafeteria. I would love some friends going back to college too!0

omg i'm so nervous about starting back at school and keeping up with my weight loss goals. It's so much easier during the summer but i get overwhelmed with school work and health always gets put on the back burner. I'm hoping that keeping up with MFP will help this time0
-
I'm also a fellow college student; will be a junior in about two weeks. I'm definetly a stress eater, but I think having MFP will stop me from wanting to eat everything in sight due to nerves before a big exam. Anyone can feel free to add me!0

im a 3rd year in a jc about to finish my aa. as well as get a certificate/license! so i know how u feel.0
-
Starting my first year of uni in a WEEK! So excited/nervous, but it's definitely motivating me to lose weight (this last week of summer and the rest of the year).
Anyone, free to add me!0 -
I'm moving in for my sophomore year on Sunday! I'm studying classical vocal performance (hoping to be an opera singer someday!)
The big issue right now is planning healthy snacks that I can keep in my room - didn't do so well with that last year0 -
try working and going to school full-time, but i do miss being in school. i hate being alone with my thoughts. my plan is to work in the mornings... getting out of bed in the early morning is the hardest!0

Hey guys! Feel free to add me also! I'm an untraditional freshmen, but starting my 2nd semester this week. I actually think I make better weight loss progress while I'm in school, thanks to the awesome group fitness classes at my school gym! if anyone needs motivation or encouragement please feel free to add me!0
