Fat???..is that a solution??
Why some students tend to gain weight and lose weight that fast?
the eating disorders continue to be on the rise among college students. the media is affecting our ways of thinking and ways of eating also, seeing celebrities with a small body or cute guys with the perfect body is affecting us so bad that some students struggle with their classes for spending too much time working out or to tired of doing exercises that is impossible for them to keep track of their homework and important things to do besides sports.
When the pressure gets together like on finals, or too much party and you had a lot of things to work on behind, alot of students turn into anorexia to block of what is happening. believing that losing weight is the one thing they can succeed. others turn into bulimia or a compulsive eating as a way to deal with pressures and emotions.
The Massachusetts Eating Disorders Association cites the following statistics on college student eating disorders:
• 15% of women 17 to 24 have eating disorders
• 40% of female college students have eating disorders
• 91% of female college students have attempted to control their weight through dieting

When things do go awry, some people find solace in controlling their eating habits. Many eat junk food whenever they feel badly, and then the guilt is so overpowering that they vomit it all back up. Others eat less and less in hopes of losing weight and becoming the ideal size.
Some sites said that you might wont be able to recover from an eating disorder, but you do. it takes alot of time but you do, the difficult part of it is accepting the fact that you are not doing okay. we have to be conscious of how important is to keep ourselves eating well but not concerned about how you look, you should thing about the benefits of eating well gives you like : more energy,your mind works better, you body, is hard to get an infection, even when you have to study alot it helps you to keep your body working on the right way.
really quickly.
without forgetting that fast food is not good for you, you might think eating well mean having 3 meals a day. well is not, your body needs fuel, but not the cheapest one like hamburgers or fries or too much bread. grease food makes you sleepy tired and most of the time low energy,acid indigestion, sour stomach or hart burn sometimes.

"be Smart and eat right", remember that you are the one that is taking care of your body, you have to respond to that and make sure you have the right fuels in your body to keep doing that you like and maybe not have the perfect body but be happy with what you have, and make other things your priorities like studies and yourself not just exercise and what society thinks about you. love yourself, because nobody else is going to do ti for you, a healthy life style it keeps you alive longer that you think.
" is not the way you look, is the way you feel, and think".
