Drinking lots of water throughout the day will help curb an appetite and help keep you full without adding extra calories. If you find yourself still craving something more, drink tea. Tea will have the same effect, keeping you full and curbing your appetite while satisfying that craving for something "yummy." Tea also offers a great deal of antioxidants which is a powerful brain fuel!
Add a little exercise
Physical activity is one of the greatest stress relievers there is. If you feel those food cravings coming on and it's not time for a meal, take a break and get some exercise! Go for a quick walk around campus, do some push ups and squats, make a quick 20 minute gym break -- whatever type of physical activity suits your fancy! Exercising in the midst of finals will not only relieve your stress but it will also give you more energy to keep you going, give you a better nights sleep and improve your mood.
If you can, pick a study haven that is far, far away from food. Instead of doing your work at home, in your dorm room, or the dining halls, find a spot deep within the library or in an empty classroom. This way you will not have food tempting you at all times or at your disposal when it's time for a break. If you want a snack while doing your school work, bring a healthy portion of fruit or vegetables with you to your secluded work area so you will not over eat or eat something "unhealthy."
Meet with Northeastern Dining's nutrition assistant Meghann Jurkowski TODAY, Monday, December 9, at International Village from 12:00 to 1:00 where she will be available to answer any of your healthy eating questions as well as sampling some healthy sliced apple nachos. Hope to see you there!
