Cliff Notes for the Dorm Diet

  • Eat three meals a day, spaced four to five hours apart.
  • Combine eating in the cafeteria with whipping up healthy meals and snacks in your room. Aim for at least two meals per day in the cafeteria for the widest range of choices.
  • Eat breakfast! If you're an early bird, grab breakfast at the cafeteria. If you prefer to sleep in, grab one of our "meals on the go" to eat on your way to class.
  • Carry a water bottle with you at all times and use it!
