Exam Diet

I did one year of law school before realizing that I didn’t actually want to be a lawyer. The truth is, I don’t know what I want to be, but that’s for another time. For now, I’d like to talk about exam dieting. Going to Stetson Law meant that there were A LOT of wonderful options to choose from on Uber Eats. With being so busy reading, briefing cases, or outlining for exams, my friends and I often found ourselves having food like what’s pictured above being delivered to the library. I had a love hate relationship with my eating habits during law school. I tried the best I could to eat “healthy” and made sure that I had good sources of proteins, fats, carbs, blah blah. But I also indulged in the good stuff. Maybe even a little too much. I definitely gained the freshman 15 my 1L year. Now that I’m out of school I’ve had a chance to reflect on how my body’s changed over the last year. There is not one part of me that regrets eating six doughnuts in a 5 minute period. They were DELICIOUS!!!! Moving forward into work life, I’d like to be able to take the lessons I’ve learned about stress eating and mindless eating and keep myself a little more together than I did around exams. What are some of your study/work eating habits?
