Food Diary-
Well here it is. I really don't eat very well, especially when I'm stressed and running low on funds, which is pretty much all the time this semester. Basically I eat a lot of carbs/pasta, and eat a lot more when I'm at my apartment, next to the food. I'm really bad at making sure I eat at regular times and skip meals a lot and eat late at night. And then of course I binge drink on the weekends. So all in all, I'm pretty darn healthy.
Thursday
woke up late, so I skipped breakfast...
12:45 pm
I chewed a piece of 5 gum in class. It's not technically food, but I put it in my mouth.
I was bored and hungry and didn't want to buy food.
2 pm
Back at my apartment, I had a yoplait raspberry yogurt and a stick of string cheese. I drank a glass of minutemaid lemonade from a frozen can.
I was running out of food and didn't have a chance to go grocery shopping yet, so I was eating the stuff I had left.
4 pm
Still at my apartment, I had a plate of spaghetti from leftovers that I made the day before out of ground turkey, Prego spaghetti sauce and vermicelli noodles.
I ate it because I wanted a meal and I'm poor so I need to make food that goes a long way. Also, it had been a stressful week of midterms and I love eating carbs when I'm stressed.
6:30 pm
At Coffman theater, I ate a small fry from McDonald's and half a strawberry malt to go from Annies.
My roommate and I were going to see the movie at Coffman and we love malts.
7:00 pm
Some of a small popcorn from the Coffman theater.
We were still hungry...and movies are better with popcorn
Friday
11 am
I ate the half of a grapefruit with sugar on top that I still had left before I went to class.
I was pretty much out of breakfast food, and I like grapefruit.
3:30 pm
I got to my apartment back from class and had another big plate of spaghetti. Another glass of lemonade.
I was leaving for the hockey game at 5 and don't like buying stuff there, so I wanted to eat something filling.
7:30 pm
At the hockey game, a box of nerds that my mom had leftover from giving her students valentines. They were strawberry and fruit punch.
Again, I didn't want to buy some overpriced food, and we could only bring small things in our purses.
11:00 pm
Back at the apartment, Kraft sponge bob shapes mac n' cheese...a whole box.
I was super hungry from the game and sort of love shapes mac n' cheese. Plus, again, I've been stressed.
11:30 pm
Apartment, a rootbeer float made from Kemps homemade vanilla ice cream and half a bottle of A&W rootbeer.
My roommate and I decided to reward ourselves for not buying anything at the game...by buying stuff at Lunds.
Saturday
11 am
Woke up and ate string cheese and my last yogurt, boysenberry flavored. Had a glass of lemonade.
I was going grocery shopping later, so I was eating what I had.
4 pm
Got back from grocery shopping and made myself 3 Tyson chicken strips with honey on the side and buttered buns that were broiled. I also had a can of Mt Dew.
I hadn't had any chicken in a while, and no meat aside from the ground turkey in my spaghetti. I'm in love with Mt Dew and usually drink at least one a day, and was seriously needing one after running out earlier in the week.
6 pm
At the apartment, another rootbeer float, made the same as before.
I have a sweet tooth.
7:00 pm
A large handful of frozen Ore-Ida zesty flavored fries with ketchup.
My roommate and I split what was left of a big bag that we had made most of earlier.
10:00-11:00 pm
2 rather large glasses of red wine (half a bottle)
I love wine, and there was a wine sale at Surdyk's. Also, our apartment got a new occupant...a mouse, so we needed to drink.
11:30 pm
3shots of regular smirnoff, chased with more A&W rootbeer.
We were heading to a party and bumming off my other roommates for booze, and we wanted to leave so we did shots because they're fast
11:45 pm
On the way to the party, one and half cigarettes, Parliments.
I smoke when I drink, especially when I'm walking places.
12:00-1:00 am
At the party, 3 Miller Genuine Drafts, bottle. Smoked hookah
It's what the guy's at the party had, so that's what we drank! And again, I smoke when I drink.
3:00-4:00 am
2 glasses of tap water.
I wanted to hydrate before I went to bed.

Yogurt, string cheese, spaghetti, grapefruit, lemonade mac n' cheese, chicken stripes, Mountain Dew, and some booze, generally speaking, these are the food items that got you through (more or less) for three days. Your diet seems typical for someone who is in college: not much work, convenient, long-lasting, and often can provided up to two to three servings. What I think is amazing is that almost--if not all--of those foods you ate are either directly or indirectly connected to corn. Anyway, keep up the good work--you haven't gone hungry! Often times college students learn the hard way the value of a free meal.
