Spent the weekend in Lubbock for the Tech vs TX football game! Fun time!

Over the weekend I was exposed to college life as an "outsider." (Hard to believe I've been out of school for over 2 years!) Seeing all the tailgaters made me thankful for my health and nutrition knowledge...it was so obvious how the infamous "freshman 15" can creep up on you. Here's some tips on how to keep that from happening to you during football season...

-drink a light beer

-drink water between beers

-stay away from margaritas from a jug (they probably are not skinny margaritas)

-workout before you tailgate

-be aware of your calorie intake (from beverages and food)

-chips are bad; munch on healthy choices like light popcorn, fruits, carrots or celery; then stop munching

-workout the following day

-be smart, it adds up
