A Big Kudos to College Candy!

At College Lifestyles, we promote healthy eating, not dieting or the word 'no.'  

Our director, Shelly Marie says:

'When folks are on a diet, they turn into a fun vacuum.  (Fun vacuum (n.) - 'suck the fun out of everything.')  I see (and talk to) so many become more obsessive about what they eat and instead of having fun with friends, they turn to measuring, counting calories, categorizing good and bad foods, and dissecting labels.  In turn, they fun vacuum their own personal life.  They no longer have fun with friends, family, and school.  And that just breaks my heart.'

And then she gets the question:

'What's the best diet?  No this, no that.'

And she says:

'Fads don't work in fashion and in eating.'

And she is right - a study from the New England Journal of Medicine states the same.

How does College Candy come in?  They wrote a great article on the same!  Check it out at College Candy!
