exchange student= fat


Question Posted Monday August 10 2009, 9:20 am

I just got back from a 7 week exchange program in France. I thought I was eating pretty healthy and moderately over there, but now that Im home I realize Ive gained ALOT of weight. I havnt weighed myself yet, but some of the pants that I didnt wear the whole time now dont even fit me. I had just bought these white jeans before I left, and they fit perfectly when I bought them (they werent even that tight) and now they are too tight to wear in public. That is just one example, but there are alot more things that dont fit anymore. Tell me what to do!! Go on a diet? Start running or somthing? People used to call me skinny alot and now Ive actually got 'love handles' and its embarrassing!

usually, foods from another country may have different calories than our country...
i would exersise reguarlly, maybe join a gym, and try to eat a little healthier and cut down on the snacks.. maybe you should weigh yourself and try to make a goal for yourself.. maybe each week try to loose five pounds or something.. and then reward yourself at the end of the week by taking yourself out someplace.. goals are great and they help you stay motavated and keep you on task. and by rewarding yourself.. it makes you keep going.. running would be a good idea as well.. hope that helps a little!

unfortunetly when people travel, we tend to forget about our normal eating habits, and switch to the "holiday" eating habits.

even though you THOUGHT you were eating healthy, the food you were eating could have been high in calories. Eating in other countries is tricky.

just start eating really healthy, excercise if you can, and the weight will eventually come off, you just gotta stick to it.

hope this helps! =]
