It would be great to make some friends on here who are not only from the UK, but University students like me.

I am in my second year of studying Psychology! I find a lot of the time, especially when my loan is just through, I eat what the hell I like, because I can.

I also find when I am stressed over work due in I just eat and eat and pig out completely!

    The "Introductions" Topic has a few students on there, might be worth a trawl? I'm assuming they're still studying tbh I didn't check dates of the posts - sorry! Good luck :O)

    I'm in the UK and part way through my MA. I put on so much weight doing my undergrad, all those hours spent sat infront of my computer snacking. I'm determined that this time will be different :)

    Hello, I'm a Maths student in my final year at Cardiff - finding it so hard balancing all my degree stuff and staying healthy! Been on here a while but never used the forums and I'm looking for some friends so help keep me motivated :)

    I'm an MA student. Stress makes me want to eat but I'm getting married in 10 weeks so I have to sort it.

    Hey, I'm a first year student at Bournemouth uni :)

    I also pig out when work's due - mainly because my head is elsewhere and I don't have time to plan out meals and be cooking for ages! My priorities shift; my thought pattern is always exercise and healthy, balanced meals which takes valuable time planning and shopping for, or just grab a pizza from tesco and put your time into my work instead?

    That's just stress brain though, I know it's doable to eat right and do the work!

    Hey, first year Languages here! I always forget to eat for hours on end, then pig out in a huge way when I feel really hungry... Bad times.

    Im studying BSc (Hons) Computing at the University of Portsmouth!

    Currently on a year out to work in the industry so closer to Bracknell, office hours kind of ruin your figure...
