Weight Loss for Everyone: I’m struggling to adjust to college life and have consequently gained quite a bit of weight

I’m struggling to adjust to college life and have consequently gained quite a bit of weight

I’m a college freshman, living in a single apartment away from home. I never really learned how to cook when I was at home as my parents cooked every meal. I also never had to do grocery shopping before coming here. As that has happened, I have gained a good bit of weight in the short amount of time that I have been here. I moved to school in mid august, and it is now the end of November, so 3.5 months I’ve been away from home. In that time, my weight has gone from 205-235 pounds. I’m 5 foot 10-11, so I’m technically obese. As a freshman and sophomore in high school I played football, and was a lineman so I had to put on weight to play. Coming in as a freshman I weighed 175 pounds, and I jumped 20 pounds in about 8 months. Then, from the end of freshman season to the beginning of sophomore season I gained 50 pounds, reaching 225. I didn’t get enough muscle though, and was very out of shape come season. I only played defense that year, and quit after that season. Fast forward two years to mid senior year. I kept my weight mostly the same, only reaching 228 pounds. Then, from January to July, I dropped down to 205 pounds, and was in better shape than I had been since junior high. Then, college hit. Since I have been here, I have lived on fast food, pizza, chips, hotdogs, bread and a whole slew of other unhealthy foods, leading me to have gained the 30 pounds in 3 and a half months and waste all the work it took to get down to 205 pounds. I need some inspiration and help to get back on track, because I have recognized my problems but I have just simply not cared and just continued to eat and grow larger.
