<p>Get super stressed until you can't eat.
:]</p>
<p>No, I was really stressed at the beginning of the year, and ended up losing 6 lbs in a week and a half because I couldn't eat. I started eating eventually, but only some of the weight's come back. I guess I was kind of doing the opposite of the freshman fifteen. And no one could understand why I was upset that I was losing weight; it's not healthy.</p>
<p>Just work out. It does wonders and it helps with the stress.</p>

lol @ you guys. Everyone knows that you can't avoid the freshman 15 without hydroxycut and cell tech.

<p>I don't trust any "patented formula" whose biochemical pathway I can't look up and study. I mean, if it's patented, why are they so hesitant to release the biochemical mechanisms to us? I mean, we (were) AP students. :p </p>
<p>Careful use of 2,4-Dinitrophenol along with plenty of air-conditioning, ice packs and water is the hardcore way to go. I mean, it directly targets cellular respiration. You can't get more hardcore than that.</p>
<p>They're hesitant because they can't reveal how they get cell tech to be "18x more effective than regular creatine."</p>
<p>But they're protected by patent!</p>
<p>i have a question about gyms/fitness centers at colleges...do people blast music? because i prefer to listen to my ipod, but at my high school's weight room the wrestlers are always blasting their (not to my taste) music so i can barely hear my own music. lol so do people bring their own music at college or impose their tastes on others? because that's the main reason i hate the weight room...</p>
<p>The weight room I used to go to had one central ancient stereo that would typically play "modern"-ish rock and it was fairly non-objectionable to most people in there. It was never so loud that if you wanted to listen to something else you couldn't.</p>
<p>RacinReaver's weight room is similar to the one at my college. They also play music in the pool room, but you can barely hear it over the splashing.</p>
<p>Also, I'm gained 5 pounds since I last checked my weight. I'm staying optimistic and saying it's because I'm getting the muscle-weight I never had.</p>
<p>haha thanks. trivial question, but i like to work out to my own tunes =)</p>
<p>I had the same problem with the weight room in my high school, except it was the football players cranking their rap music. :rolleyes:</p>
<p>Don't get a meal plan if you're not required to and do the shopping yourself. I find myself just getting by on 2 meals a day instead of the usual 3 when I have to cook or buy everything I eat. Plus you find ways to improvise because everything you eat, you have to lug in from the store. Some days, I'd feel so lazy I didn't even want to bother making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.</p>
<p>Re: stressting yourself out-this is a double edged sword because some people gorge themselves on food when they're stressed.</p>
<p>My gym has a built-in sound system and they use the radio.</p>
<p>No music at ours. The treadmills are sweet though. iPod connectivity and the control panels are touch screen.</p>
