What is the Freshman 15?College students weight gain their first semester (or year) of college is associated with the term "Freshman 15". College freshman are at the highest risk to gaining weight when beginning college due to severe lifestyle change.
How to Avoid the Freshman 15
Avoiding the Freshman 15 is simple: eat healthy foods and exercise! Let's face it, we are all guilty of eating junk food. It is much easier to eat from the (very fattening) dollar menu or cafeteria, rather than going to the grocery store, buying several ingredients, and preparing a healthy meal. Many college students keep unhealthy snacks in their dorm, eat late at night, go out and eat too often, and drink excessive amounts of alcohol. It is so easy to slip into unhealthy habits, so what can you do to avoid the freshman 15? To avoid the freshman 15, try keeping healthy snacks in your dorm, eat grilled food when you go out rather than fried, and above all else, exercise.
Most people want to stay fit and set up an exercise plan to achieve this goal. We all reach a point where we don't feel like exercising at our designated time, so we put it off. Many continue to be lazy until they stop exercising altogether. Don't put yourself in a weight loss situation that you can easily give up on; take a P.E. class at SSCC!
