My Late-Night Snacking Habit
Anonymous Winking Minx #368 · General
Ever since I moved to my dorm room, I've picked up this weird habit of snacking late at night. It starts around 10 PM and goes on until I fall asleep at like 2 AM or so. Sometimes it's just a bag of chips or some leftover pizza from earlier in the day. Other times, it turns into a full-on midnight feast with cookies, ice cream, and whatever else I can find. Everyone talks about freshman fifteen gaining weight but this feels more like late-night ten pounds. It's not even hunger; more like boredom, stress, or just wanting something sweet to munch on. My roommate is out of the room half the time so there’s no one around to call me out on it. But I can see it in my mirror, dark circles under my eyes and a few extra pounds showing up where they shouldn't be. Is this just part of adjusting to college life, or should I really try to get it together before things spiral?
