    I agree I did it during the summer just fine but this semester is awful!

    Hi! I'm a sophomore in college. I transferred schools this fall and it has been a lot easier to eat healthier because my new school's cafeteria sucks! So I'm making lots of salads or sandwiches!

    Anyone who wants to add me - feel free! :smile:

    I'm starting school on Monday =D I think I'll have a relatively easy time of it (well, as easy as starting a diet will ever be) because I'm going to a community college for the first two years, which is not only pretty local to where I live but RIGHT around the corner from my work. I'll be able to stow away food at work if need be, but I'll be checking out what the student union has to offer food wise. I'll have to avoid the pizza place in there for sure, but the cafeteria does have a pretty complete salad bar from what I remember last time I visited there.

    Good luck to everyone!

    Taking a nutrition class this semester, so it's really opening my eyes. Hoping to lose a few pounds through healthy eating and working out, and hopefully this site will keep me on track!

    yes! i'm trying to balance a semester of working out, eating healthy, living in a new apartment with different people, having a boyfriend, writing a thesis, and figuring out what i'm doing with the rest of my life! Never have I done this much before, sometimes it's hard. But I love the support of college friends on MFP. So relatable! Feel free to add me! :)

    I just started college too! I'm looking for some support since my friends don't really care what they eat, so needless to say its been sort of hard to stay healthy here.
