i'm in trouble with my diet...just moved on campus

[smr91481]

alright fellas i need some help. i moved in a dorm last week and i can see my diet going to shit already. here's the deal...i have this meal plan that i had to buy to live here. i can't work right now so i don't have money to buy any groceries. but, it wouldn't matter if i could b/c i have no way to cook and my refrigerator is only big enough to hold a couple bottled waters.

these are the places i can eat at:
burger king
some pizza place
a pasta place
chick filet
phat tuesdays (poboys)
subway
a chinese place
a fried chicken place

how is it humanly possible to keep a decent diet with these choices. i mean i have absolutely no money right now so these are my only choices.
help me out guys. should i go on jared's subway diet

And how does your meal-plan work?

 

[smr91481]

oh yeah, there is a cafeteria. but in there is really like the rest of the places. everyday they have pizza, hamburgers, hotdogs, chinese, deserts, and then they have something differnet everyday. like today is was chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes.

my meal plan is declining balance. it starts with 895.00 and it's just like money.

Well that does suck indeed. However, you're going to have to work with what you have i guess. Try to avoid the greese pits. Subway is alright i guess, just don't go overboard with the mayo and sub sauce. The caf is likely a better choice too. See if they'll make you special orders.

hahah oh yeah. When i lived in res, i stole food from the caf every day. If possible do that. though we were not on declining ballance.

try this for caloric counts http://www.steroidbible.com/ff.htm

Watch the cafeteria they *might* serve something healthy on occasion

On your meal plan can you eat in other dorms?
When I lived in the dorm (a long time ago) we had different *themes* at the dorms Chinese, Mexican, Italian etc. Maybe you have this too.
