Hi there.

I am a student who is getting closer to finishing the year off. The down side to this is exams! When ever I study I eat. I gain about 3 to 4 lbs during exam time. Any advice and help is welcome!

    I like to study at the library for that reason. Gets me out of the apartment and away from the fridge! I usually bring some high protein snacks with me so I don't get hungry. I can't study on an empty stomach!

    I've had this problem for a while, I think I've found a solution that might work for me ,you could try it!
    Pick a place to study that is as far away from food as possible and when you're about to study ,divide your studying material into sections ,and make eating a reward after each section you've finished, it should get you into the habit of eating less when you're studying ! :)
