So I started grad school about a month ago. It's only been a month and I've gone up a significant amount. My habits need to change and I need to make working out a priority.
So what do?
My goals:
1. Avoid snacking and plan well-balanced meals--My tendency is to eat small amounts of food and just graze throughout the day, but this has turned into a peanut butter addiction. I'm not getting enough good fat at the right times so I need to be MINDFUL of my eating habits.
2. Get moving! Even if I have HOURS of reading to do, I can take breaks and just walk for 15 minutes or do some push ups.
3. MODERATION MODERATION MODERATION! --I need to be gentle with myself and understand that I can slowly take care of mhself. No need for "extreme" dieting or INSANE workouts. Just be aware of my body and that it *needs* to be pampered with good food, stretching, moving. IN MODERATION.

Sounds like you have a good plan....grad school can be stressful but so can life. Learning how to deal with all of it takes a plan...it looks like you are bound for success. Good luck in grad school and with your new WOE.

I've found diet iced tea works wonders for me when I want to stress snack. It fills me up, I get a little sweet and the caffeine helps me focus on the reading. The more I drink the more I tend to lose too...double bonus!

Keep a head of celery in the fridge. Every time you want peanut butter (better to make it almond butter) put a thin shmear on a big stalk of celery. That way you get the taste, a lot of chewing, a full feeling and a dose of potasium. It slows down the high calorie intake of the PB.
