Since I have been in college for half a year now, I have found a few easy ways to be healthier and not always just choose fries for every meal. Today I wanted to share some of my favorite tips with you!
-take advantage of free classes-
During the month of January, my school offered quite a few free workout classes such as pilates, Zumba, and yoga. I ended up trying all of them, and it was a lot of fun to go with girls from my floor.
-find a gym buddy-
Try to find someone who can go to the gym at the same time as you and make sure you go together when you go. I am not saying you need to go every single day, but even just planning on going twice a week together is helpful!
-keep healthier snacks-
Try keeping yogurt, fruit, or vegetables in your room to snack on between meals instead of cookies.
-only eat the best desserts-
My school offers about 5 dessert options at every meal. Many of them actually aren’t that good, and sometimes I will try something that looks good only to find it really is not that good. If you take a few bites and don’t like it, don’t feel like you have to eat the whole thing!
-bring a water bottle everywhere-
I always keep a water bottle in my backpack, and this means that I am able to keep hydrated in class. It is a super easy way to get enough water.
-drink water at meals-
At my school you can choose basically any soda or juice to drink at meals, but if you try to drink water at most meals it is better for you!
