trouble stayng slim when in nursing school

[cingulargirl21]

I know that we have enough stress in nursing school without bringing our weight into the picture but I put on 10 pounds this past semester! I was wondering if anyone else had trouble keeping weigt off in nursing school........I think I ate more due to stress and late night studying....I didnt exercise as much and I just.....felt my clothes getting tighter. I would like to lose these 10 pounds so my clothes can fit me again and also avoid gaining weight this next semester......grrr! Does anyone have any advice or has this happened to you.....my main goal in nursing school is to pass my classes but I also would like to maintain my health and not put on weight. Help!!

lost l 10 pounds that i put on! yea! I ate yogurt mixed with some kashi cereal for breakfast and cooked some lower fat versions of things like mac and cheese, drank lots of water and exercised three days a week.....if i get a craving, i chew sugarfree gum or have some pickles. I feel so much better.......thanks for the support and good luck to everyone! I'm gonna try to stay healthy.....and keep the weaight off.
