I'm Hungry

Hiiiiiiii... So I've been extra sucky lately and I haven't been posting because I don't have any good ideas for content and no motivation... BUUUUUUT I'm back and ready to do this.

As I'm very very hungry right now, I decided to give you guys some tips on how to keep a good eating schedule whilst you're in college!  This is something that I had to really teach myself because when you're in college, you don't have a set lunch time, and you don't have parents there to tell you when breakfast and dinner are ready.  You gotta feed yourself in a timely fashion or you're going to go to bed hungry and you're going to wake up cranky.  SO HERE ARE MY TIPS!

1. Don't skip breakfast!
It's super easy to skip breakfast, especially when you have an 8 AM, but you definitely should not. The saying "breakfast is the most important meal of the day" ain't a lie.  It really is important so don't skip it! At least have a banana or a handful of cheerios if your don't have time, but put something in your mouth so you don't drag all day until lunch time.

2. Make time for food.
It can be hard to find time in your schedule to eat when you have classes that are close together and around lunch/dinner time but whatever you do, find time to feed yourself.  On Fridays I have three classes back to back and no time to eat lunch, but I always run the the caf and grab food to bring to class.  Do your best to eat timely meals because like you need a good sleep schedule, you need a good food schedule.

3. Eat healthy!
I already love salads and healthy foods, but if you're not the type who enjoys them, try your best to find foods that aren't completely trash for you.  Lucky for me, the food that's served at my school is generally pretty healthy, but if you don't have those options, you can probably find healthy options out there somewhere.  If you really can't eat healthy, at least try to balance it out with exercise, even though I'm the last person who should be giving health tips HAHAH.

4. Keep hydrated!
If you've ever visited any college campus, you probably noticed that majority of students walk around with water bottles.  It's important that you keep hydrated because it's actually really easy to forget that you need to drink water.  I love water, but I know there are a lot of people out in the world that hate it.  If you hate water, try adding fruits like strawberries, pineapples, watermelon, or lime/lemons, even cucumbers, to give your water a little boost.  Adding fruits and things to your water can also be a good cleanse for your body too!  My mom's been telling me that you need to drink half your body weight in water, but I don't think that's right so don't listen to my mom lol, but drink lots of water!!!

5. Explore different foods!
I'm very adventurous when it comes to food but I know many people aren't.  My school's cafeteria offers a variety of foods from around the world, I know that it can be quite intimidating to try foods that are new to you and your palate, but you never know, you could end up loving it.  Living in San Francisco, there are so many good food options all around me, and lots of new things for me to try, so definitely if you have new options, don't be afraid to try them out!  One thing that my parents taught me was to try new things and if I don't like it, I don't have to have it again, so keep that in mind  when you're trying new things too.

Those are all my tips!  I'm really hungry right now so I'm going to eat now lol.  I promise to try to keep up with blogposts too.  Have an awesome week!

Thanks for reading!
