One of the major concerns I, and many others have going in to their first year of college is the Freshman 15. I am here to tell you that the wight gain is very, very real. These are some of my weaknesses that caused my freshman 15 and I'm thinking that my fellow Huskies here at Bloomsburg University can relate!

1. The rec center is practically in another country.

Let's face it, no matter where you live on campus, it's a hike. Walking to the rec is a workout in itself and by the time you get there you're just too tired to go on.

2. Leg day + hills = death.

You are not human if you can endure a hardcore leg day workout and not feel like crying on your way to class the next day. BU's notorious hills are not your friend. No, sir.

3. Junk food is EVERYWHERE on campus.

Every eating establishment on campus has primarily junk food. Of course there are some healthy options; there are laws about that now. The unhealthy food just seems to be so much more enticing though. You just cannot mess up pizza or a chicken patty, you just can't. And who could forget the ever-so-famous commons cookies. You have to get them whenever you go; that is, If they aren't all gone.

4. The late-night pizza deal.

One topic on campus that almost everyone has in common is the struggle to preserve their flex. Thus, the late-night pizza deal was born. Every night between 9:30 and midnight you can get two slices of pizza and a fountain soda for the low price of just one meal swipe, NO FLEX. Of course this excites everyone but this is probably the worst thing to be eating so late at night. (But, we all do it anyways.)

5. Delivery is oh so tempting.

What could be better than having Papa John's, Domino's, Frank's, and Chinese food at the tip of your fingers? Being able to have it delivered to your dorm room at 4 a.m., that's what. (I come from a town where delivery is nonexistent so this was super exciting to me.)

6. Tri Pi and Pink Wieners.

If you've been there, no other words are needed. If you haven't been, go now. That is all.

7. Healthy food = expensive.

On the bright side, we all have mini-fridges in our dorm rooms. This gives us the option to stock up on fresh fruits and veggies! I mean that would be great if we could afford it, it kills us to go buy shampoo and toothpaste. Why should we have to go buy more food when we're already required to spend thousands on a meal plan? No thank you.

8. Care packages.

You know the exciting feeling, getting that notification that you have a package waiting for you in the mail room. You rip open that package and your lay your eyes on a beautiful box full of goodies; that sugary, cheesy, salty, 100 percent-unhealthy snack and you love every piece of it.
Mmm, comfort food.

9. What is time?

In college my first priority is to get my school work done, this can be extremely time consuming. Second in line is social life. Hanging out with friends is so much more appealing than busting my butt at the gym.

10. Netflix binging.

Did you ever sit down and only watch one episode of "Grey's Anatomy," "Making a Murderer" or any other highly addictive series on Netflix? Yeah, me either. But it is just so much better than the gym.

11. I'm a lazy college kid who enjoys long naps and short walks to get pizza.

I know I'm not alone in this, don't deny it.
