University: Saving and Snack tips

Hey Marshmallows,

So I am going back to university soon, after a one week long break, and well I just know I am going to be having trouble with my whole healthy eating plan, because I am a sucker for chocolate and sweets especially when you want a quick snack on your way to your next class, so if you have browsed over my wish list post, you will know that I want to buy myself healthy snack bars with the purpose of diminishing the chances of me wasting my hard earned cash on rubbish food. But I need other ideas besides that, because I spend a lot of time at Varsity and some days I am there until 7 at night.

So I am going to be collecting lots of healthy snack ideas and tips here and posting them for you guys to share. If you have any tips, comment below, and be sure to check back here from time to time, it might have expanded.

Tips and tricks

  • Always pack a lunch; 
    • having a packed lunch (that you like) will lower the chances of you heading off to the Shops to buy some junk. But it is very important that it is something you like, otherwise you just ignore it and don’t want to eat it.
  • Bring a bottle of Juice or water; 
    • this way you will stay hydrated and won’t spend your money on sodas, which isn't good for you at all and mostly dehydrates you more.
  • Bring fruit pieces; 
    • if you cut up an apple or pear and put it in a container, you have a nice accessible snack for in between classes and maybe during classes.
  • Try not to drink coffee or tea whilst at Varsity; 
    • I swear this is how they make the most money, I could spend all my money on coffee if I didn't have some sort of control, it is very bad, especially because I am there so early, I want to buy coffee.
Sorry that  there are no pictures with this post.
Love you guys
