Bingeing at uni

Has anyone else found that they're eating so much more at uni than at home? The weird thing is that I'm losing weight at the same time - maybe it's stress-related? :confused:

I thought it was time I asked since I realised most of my money actually goes on snacks, and I've come to the conclusion that junk food is more satisfying than alcohol...oh dear.

i seem to have gotten into a strange routine of drinking more (not just fizzy drinks) but yeah, junk food does have its appeals. as long as you can still afford Clearasil and take regular showers then you shouldn't offend too many ppl :smile:

The more I eat the thinner I get and the more clear my skin is. I give up trying to understand myself.

yes, an abnormal physiology is the way forward :smile:

although on balance, i think i would be happier dying 20 years younger and eating 2 fry ups a week than living 20 years longer and being a vegetarian. not to take anything away from them, of course....

Yes! The worst thing is that I live with big greedy men, so I find myself allowing me to be being greedy too and still not being the greediest in the house, so I fool myself into thinking it's fine... But I'm being good and dieting now. Sensibly, of course, and I've lost half a stone (yay). I find it impossible to be be a sensible eater; either I'm dieting, in which case I eat really healthily, loads of veg and fruit and nothing fatty at all, or I'm this mad greedy monster. I doubt it's healthy...

Are you doing more at uni though? If you have to walk further to get to lectures, or are having very strenuous sex then maybe the extra calories are being burnt off.

At home I used to walk at least five miles a day (to college/work and back). I do almost no exercise here, because my lectures aren't ever more than five minutes walk away, and I think my muscles have disintegrated. Wahh, it's awful. And I'm not having any sex, strenuous or otherwise :frown:

See, you're probably burning it off! You only need to worry if you're not. My boobs have grown loads since I've been at uni though, which is slightly weird

Heh, that happened to my housemate. As a xmas present I think I gave him a 32B bra. He appeared grateful.

I switch between bingeing and starving.... I know, not good... but, have been eating normal-ish this week.

i think i binge way to much!! Although at the moment i do loads of sport and exercise, so like pikaboo i'm loosing weight as i'm doing more than i normally do! Once i get to uni that might stop, and the results won't be good :p:
