I Am In College

I've been eating a lot of vegetables and avocados (which botanically is a fruit but in the culinary world is classified as a fruit-vegetable as opposed to say, a potato which is a root vegetable), a lot of things from the big produce drawer my mother has in the fridge. I did not have a fridge at school. Going to a culinary school, I literally went to class and had dinner every night as part of class so eating fresh food wasn't a problem 5/21 meals in a week, the other meals however were poor choices, and the added meals of mcdonalds late at night didn't help at all. Surprisingly though, I did not gain my freshman 15, I actually lost quite a bit of weight. 106 at 5'7" by golly. The most important thing about eating is energy balance. Putting in as much as you use, and that goes a lot with eating when only hungry, restricting to meals and not grazing throughout the day. I took one Intro to Nutrition class and I could probably go on about it confidently for about 20 minutes, there is so much information and so many factors that go into being healthy and eating and doing right it's overwhelming. Nutritionists gets paid mad money. That's where personal chefs also make the big fkn money they make hundreds of thousands, cooking for one person, or a team of athletes where they create the menu and are like here you go to their chefs. But a Third Year nutrition class is five hours of math when given a scenario to make a single smoothie. I couldn't do that, so bless them I guess.

I agree, even I try to have as many vegetables as I can but seriously

I didn't gain my freshmen 15 either, probably because I walked the campus so much.
