The Beginning: College Crisis

First off, this is my first time posting in a blog of this caliber. I am very excited to start this project and see if it will help me in the long-run. My initial idea is to help others, as well as myself, become a healthier person.


I start this study by examining what I have eaten and what I should eat during the week. So far, I have had a hamburger twice this week, cereal, mac and cheese, green beans, a grilled chicken sandwich, fries (potato and sweet potato) lots of tea and water and some fruit. Do you see a problem with this diet? I sure do! My diet this past week is vastly unhealthy. However it is the most convenient diet. As a college student, convenience is the key to a better day. Instead of looking for a healthy lunch, most of the time we turn to fast food because it is the fastest way to eat.Why is this a problem: WE STILL HAVE GROWING BODIES! Many students with little money are just starting out in the college world. We are paying for books, supplies, sometimes clothes, and any other necessities. We do not want to pay a lot of money for food. We study all the time so we also do not have the time to prepare healthy meals. In this study, I will see what is a healthier way of eating without spending the big bucks.


I hope this helps many of you and please leave any comments of what you would like to see in future posts.
