One way to tell if this is happening and you're in denial: you avoid wearing jeans and fitted clothing on a daily basis...
These small tips may help correct this issue in a quick and timely manner!
Tip 1: Try not to eat past midnight.
Numerous times, we have seen the same girls ordering out or munching on unhealthy snacks in order to stay awake to write a paper or study for an exam. Instead of pizza or junk food, try chewing gum or eating healthy snacks like celery, carrots, apples, or yogurt.
Tip 2: Walk instead of taking public transportation.
Now if your in suburbia it may not be as easy to walk everywhere...but I know people who choose to call a cab for a mile walk. So go that extra mile. Your jeans will thank you later.
Tip 3: Obviously, don't deprive yourself.
We always hear this but, we tend to ignore it most of the time. I know that when Queen E and Queen V start a diet we try to cut everything bad out. This always ends in disappointment. So ignore the whole "waste not, want not" saying, and have half the cookie.
Tip 4: Watch the alcohol.
Many people get to college and go crazy. This is bad for your body for many reasons, but lots of people forget that there are extra calories in drinks....from the Starbucks lattes to alcoholic beverages, keep it to a minimum.
Tip 5: Try to exercise at least three times a week.
We all know how intense and busy college is, but doing even the bare minimum for cardio-vascular exercise is better than nothing! Go for a light run or a walk! Sign up for a yoga class at the gym! Most colleges have some workout programs! Not to mention the gym is always a great place to meet guys...
Oh and girls, please, please, please don't turn to unhealthy ways to loose weight! Smoking, starving yourself, or using diet supplements are NEVER a good idea.
Remember we are all beautiful at every size...
but if you notice some unwanted extra pounds creeping on, it can be easily fixed with these quick tips!
Love, Queen E and Queen V
