I'm not sure how to plug dinning hall food into mfp cause it is all made differently. I'm not sure if I cut back enough. I will try again when I go back. I stress eat a lot of food so that could be it.
-
Hmmm so I'm back again. My most recent weigh in has me at 182 lbs. I tried to cut back and eat healthier, but it doesn't seem to have helped any.
-
As mentioned before, I tend to eat the most during stressful times. College is very stressful with constant tests and projects. Sometimes after a harsh day I need a pick me up. So why not the smores or some ice cream? Is it really so bad :pensive:
-
Problem is there is no scale in my dorm and I live with two other people. I'm kinda too embarrassed to explain this as we are not close. However, I just tried to put on a pair of pants I bought last year at this time. It is a struggle to get the pants up the thigh(as they are much bigger now), and it is about two inches…
-
Yep that's the stuff. We have this really good mac and cheese you can get too. Ours is open all week long and right next to my room. I also am due for a new pair of pants.
-
I don't regret eating the food as it was very good and fun times but I also don't want to be 100+ lbs overweight by graduation. The advice here is good. I just need to find a way to stick by it. I am one of those who always says "this can't hurt" or "jus one more" I will not lie. I guess it adds up after all.

If I divide the swipes by the amount of days in the term you get around 3 swipes per day. However, swipes carry over on my plan and every break I get extra. I finished up using all the ones that came from thanksgiving break and such. I have issues feeling full and will often feel hungry (especially more recently)
-
I get a set amount of meals that I can use anytime I want in anyway. Like I could swipe for 5 things one day and 2 the next.
-
Well I got very stressed during midterms and neglected the calories in my food until now.
-
No kidding..42 inches on a good day. Yeah I don't like to waste food and always want to get the full value of my swipe. A lot of people use them up on smoothies, pastries etc no more maple bars or deep dish brownies for me. I might down grade my meal plan. I know my school is rated one of the.best for food also.
-
I go to one of the largest universities in my state. We have several dinning halls I just go to the one closest to me most often which happens to be mostly unhealthy I will not lie. This same hall has a late night fried food service for a meal swipe. I have the maximum number of meals and try to use them all up so I don't…

I am not taking any prescription drugs.

I think they are more concerned about looking bigger. Idk how mcuh they care about my health.
-
I think my parents are going to sit me down and talk about it -_-
-
I did plug in an average day without the late night snack and the number was well over 2,000. MFP predicted a future weight gain similar to the one I experienced...wow
-
The term was only eleven weeks and my parents visited on the third week and told me I had lost weight. I believe psychologically I thought I could eat more as a result. So, the gaining happened over seven weeks. That seems like a short time but for breakfast every morning I would have coffee, a mini donut, a muffin, eggs…
-
Nice job! My stomach and rest of body has grown bigger. I can't believe I didn't notice this happening. My stomach spills over my pants now and I can hardly bend my legs in my pants :(. I mean my school has a lot of walking uphill, so I assumed I could eat more food and not gain weight. Now that I look back on it, an…
-
At the start of the semester it was about 38 inches
-
I have gone to a doctor and am not pregnant. I just have a genetic disposition for gaining weight in my stomach. I have been tested for other things like fibroids etc and all came back negative.
-
Also that picture is from when I was in the 160s...
-
I have been having a lot of Fried food and pizza at late night. Do you guys think people will notice?
-
The doctor didn't give me any reason to why it was happening. I suggest it is genetic from my father and there due to high stress.
-
The doctor did a full evaluation and even a ultra sound. Apparently there was nothing there. I have been trying to eat better and even have been exercising more. I have had two knee surgeries previously that limited my movement and made me a bit sedentary for a period of time. Could that have caused this spare tire?
-
It isn't by much.
-
I am female
-
Doctor confirmed it is just weight.
-
I don't eat fast or processed foods. I generally eat pretty well and have never had any past with eating disorders.
-
No possibility of being pregnant...
-
it is somewhat hard but also squishy
-
I don't drink beer or any alcohol... This is why I am confused...
