    This sounds really fat but...

    A jar of peanut butter and a spoon while you study. Just keep going at it. It's class, I love peanut butter, so yeah, I eat it. (Weird huh?)

    Btw, I'm one of those lanky people who eats loads, so it will catch up on me. But for now, cholesterol be damned!!!!!!!!

    fellow lanky person here too :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,851 ✭✭✭PurpleFistMixer


    Yes. Went to lemon yesterday and had a waffle dripping with nutella, it was so good... I've just been sort of rewarding myself for studying by eating loads. I'm sure my body is grateful. Though, my mum's been cutting up fruit all day and bringing it up/out (if I'm in the hammock, jaysus what a tough life) to me so I don't eat junk food. It's a pretty good arrangement. Last thing I want to happen is to get run down and lethargic.

    That said I'm going to investigate in the magical powers of coffee. I had some vanilla cofee stuff the other night and I got sudden applied maths skillz. Maybe that was from studying, but I'm willing to believe coffee contains drinkable IQ too.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,628 ✭✭✭SRFC90


    I've expanded during these exams alright!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,180 ✭✭✭1huge1


    I lot of doritto's.

    But I haven't been eating well at all actually. Lost my appetite completely for the last few weaks.

    Going long periods of time without much eaten much to my mothers annoyance.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 674 ✭✭✭kaki


    Yeah, I've become particularly partial to those 39c-a-pack Tesco's digestive biscuits. I'm not going to disclose how many packets I'm going through a day...suffice to say, I'm going to have a study ass the size of China by June 17th :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,978 ✭✭✭✭irishbucsfan


    There was a few packets of pringles in the house this morning, but unfortunately theyve become more and more eaten as the day wore on.

    Im sad to report that... theyre gone now. There was nothing I could do.

    All I can say is, I hope the Dairy Milk Melts don't end up the same way tomorrow


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 418 ✭✭Nanaki


    I eat like a horse anyway :D
    just not usually junk food, the exams've changed that!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 137 ✭✭lovechem


    Indulging in copious amounts of red bull. Its vile. In the past two morning papers my stomach has been rumbling like MAD, after having pancakes, 2 coffee's and a packet of winegums.

    Can't waiiiiiiiiit to return to normal food again, its making me and my skin feel gross.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 58 ✭✭stripypumkin

    I didn't do Othello.

    I'm the opposite I can't eat at all! My appetite is like gone from nerves and stress and in the morning I get up at 6am and I want to eat breakfast but I cant force it down myself ;[ Ohh and during an exam I get hungry but by the time im home im no longer hungry.

    On the plus side I'll lose weight and can make up for that with lots of alcohol :]

    I seem to be eating chicken korma everyday :D

    Out of all Indian dishes, Korma is the most fattening.

    Me, I ve been eating very good(every 3 hours keeps metabolism going, fruit veg, high protein, tuna,oatmeal, egg...etc), as it is the summer, gotta release that 6 pack and you DO wanna get in shape!!

    A forum you all should look at after the exams! Great advice and guidelines!

  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 9,721 Mod ✭✭✭✭Twee.


    I can't stop the eating!! Breakfast is staying the same but I'm having massive dinners! I've also been eating loads of biscuits, sweet, crunchy delicious biscuits! I'll be eating normally soon and am getting gym membership as a grad. present. I put on loads of weight since fifth year, too much sitting down!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 32 MnMs


    omg ya i've been eating sooo much nowadays...i'm going to be obese now by the end of the exams!!!:D
    but i read somewhere u need to eat much more because your brain os working so much harder so you burn it off anyway!! yay for me!!!

    does that mean you could burn lots of calories by just thinking really hard? cool!!:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,174 ✭✭✭✭kmart6


    God, I can just imagine it now, a load of girls will start blaming the exams and the 'stress' for them putting on weight and not just the fact that they're eating a sh1t load and don't want to admit it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,770 ✭✭✭Jen Pigs Fly


    I'm the complete opposite, my mam hasta make me eat!
    I just don't feel hungry, the pressure from the exams is ruining my appetitie! (sorry if that's spelt wrong)

    Betchya as soon as the exams are over I'll probably gain about 5 stone!

    I'm already in great shape, I just don't buy into the super healthy lifestyle. I can binge on junk food and copious amounts of alcohol as long as I keep my metabolism going throughout the day:p. I'm a weights nut aswell, in fact working on the bench became the ultimate procrastination tool away from studying.

    If you're always super healthy then your missin out on the good stuff in life!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 664 ✭✭✭Flyer1


    I lost loads of weight there at the start of this year and i'm gone mad into the healthy eating, excercising, weight lifting and all of that. I've found since i've started the exams i'm eating normally but the day before an exam i'll hardly eat at all, nor feel the desire to do so.

    Come on monday the 16th :D
