    This article gave me several tips on how to stay healthy in college. One of the main things that the author says is that many college students have a job, go to school, have a social life, and study all in the same day. She explains that the only way to stay healthy and to have the ability to continue doing everyday activities is to eat healthy. The author also gives some tips on some destressers and other things to do when trying to have good health in college.

    This post represents all benefits of exercising and how it could be influential on confidence in some other things like motivation for studying. Also, working out would decrease stress, strengthen our immune system, and prevents gaining unnecessary weight.

    Anis, I like the correlation between weight and self-esteem as well as other facets of daily living. This article is very persuasive and helps the reader see the benefits to a healthy lifestyle.

    I agree Anis. Stress can be both a good or bad thing. It strictly depends upon the person and how they handle each situation!

    I agree, exercise is so important and if stress it can help a lot. I try exercising a lot myself.

    I also agree that physical activity is a great stress reliever. When I feel stressed-out I take the dog for a walk.
  • Angie Mitchell on 18 Jun 13
     
    I agree as well. My problem is getting motivated to get up and exercise.

    I think this is a great article I didn't know that exercise reduces stress. Maybe I will feel better and a little less stressed if I start exercising

    Surprisingly, and sadly, according to a survey by Oregon State University, male college students eat more fruits & veggies than female college students per week. Even though they eat more, they still only manage 5 servings per week, compared to females, who only eat about 4 per week. The suggested # of servings for both males & females is 5-6 per day! In both males & females, 30% of their caloric intake came from fat.

50 Weight Loss Tips for College Students - 6 views

    I chose this article because obesity among young adults is an issue gaining major attention. I liked the relevant examples that the article provides to give students a clear connection between their daily habits and subsequent weight gain. The examples help to make the idea more tangible. Most articles written about excess weight are written in a formal tone or in such a way to scare the reader. This article was casual yet informative.

    I picked this article because both my daughter and I are in college. She is about to start in the fall as a college freshman. She is attempting to not only not gain any weight, but to lose a lot. This article gave me plenty of advice that I could later give to her.
  • Cedric Gordon on 18 Jun 13
     
    I agree with you Renae. Obesity if very common in our modern day and society. Most articles aren't capable of holding my attention, but this one could. As you said, the tone of it held my attention the whole entire time.

    I think I may have to try some of these tips. Thanks for posting this :)

    I have to say that all ideas are great, but sometimes I can not manage it, simply i can't. Also, I did hear about freshmen 15 so I'm giving my best until this year passes.
  • Sharon Croft on 18 Jun 13
     
    Some great ideas, here. I enjoy reading anything on nutrition and recently learned that on the healthy foods we eat, we don't need a whole lot, in fact, it just adds calories. I suppose I had the mindset that if a little is good for you then more is better. Now being able to follow the food pyramid makes more sense to me. Before, I couldn't even imagines being able to eat say five servings of vegetables per day. :-) Truth is, I was probably eating two servings at a time!

    Obesity is not only a problem for young people, but is a national problem affecting all sections of the community. The solution involves a change in daily habits and lifestyle.
  • Angie Mitchell on 18 Jun 13
     
    I really loved this article. I am going to have to put some of these onto effect.

    While being an athlete in high school, being out and not participating in physical activity everyday makes it difficult to stay on top of your fitness level. This article will help me implement different aspects into my life.
  • Jonathan Hobby on 17 Jul 13
     
    With students moving out that are not used to cooking for themselves, eating out can often be the end result leading to unplanned wait gain. This could surely come in handy for those that have been affected by that.

    It is very easy to adopt bad eating habits when at college, and this along with a lack of exercise can lead to unwanted weight gain. Eating healthy is just a matter of daily habit and lifestyle.

    I chose this article because I could relate to many of the problems college students have of healthy eating habits. I am guilty of opting for fast food, eating junk food, etc. I would have liked for the article to have gone into more depth about of the ripple effects of not eating well, such as having trouble sleeping well at night

    Exercise is very important for everyone and especially college students. It not only keeps you healthy, but it actually helps with learning and staying focused. This article states that exercise increases focus and concentration, I wonder if that is completely true.
  • MELINDA CURRY on 16 Jul 13
     
    1 . I selected this article because obesity is very serious issue affecting the world today. I have close family/friends who suffer from obesity and its take a toll on everyone especially that individual. Therefore exercise is essential in order to lose weight and reduce the obesity rate. 2. I can relate to it and could possibly educate others so they can go on and live a longer and healthier life. By exercising you can almost insure that you will reduce your health issues and possibly live even longer. 3. I would like to learn new and better ways to reduce the obesity rate, and the proper steps it requires to prevent this disease, so exercising would be one of the best methods in accomplishing these goals.
