Blog: Eating Right

I am surveying people on how they eat on campus; if it is healthy or just junk food. I want to determine how many of my peers eat properly and healthy. Also I want help inform next year’s freshman class how to eat the right way and not eat all junk and fatty foods. Eating properly is very important piece to staying fit, healthy, and to live long as possible. If you’re an athlete, it tends to be much easier to stay healthy and in shape, but for those of us who are not, it can be extremely difficult to stay on a healthy diet.

The questions that I have prepared to ask my fellow students are as follow: Where do you usually go to get food on campus? What meal plan would you recommend an incoming student? Where do you go to get food off campus? Which delivery restaurant do you usually order from and what do you order?

These questions will positively affect first-year in numerous ways. First off they will not have to worry about the mythical freshman fifteen.  Yes, a lot of freshmen gain wait but that is because they choose to eat unhealthy. If they choose to eat right and exercise you will not gain weight; you might even loose a few pounds.  Being healthy is all about your mindset. The only way you’re going to be healthy is if you chose to be. The questions can also advise them where to eat and where not to.  They can see where most people eat and figure that those are the places with the good food. The places where the students say the food is not good or terrible will be the places the first-year students won’t go.  This video will inform those who have no idea how to eat right and hopefully be helpful to keep them healthy.
