There are many reasons that this will have a negative impact on your overall health and financial well-being.  You may think you are doing yourself a favor by saving time by eating out but you are hurting yourself in the following ways:

1. You are adding to your College Loan Debt

Eating out is not cheaper.  It may seem cheap at the time but it costs you money over the long run thus adding to the amount of college loan debt that you accrue throughout the school year.  People fail to realize that spending the same amount of money on food at the grocery store will last several days and will also be healthier.

2.  Eat Smarter, Be Smarter

Studies have shown that eating healthy will add to your level of energy and to your ability to focus and for your brain to function to better.  Giving your body what it needs could mean the difference between having to repeat a year of school adding 20% to your college loan debt.

3.  Be Healthier

Eating right means you will be healthy and thus more appealling to the ladies or gentlemen at college.  Maybe even that t.a. that will be grading your papers!  Once you start feeling healthy you may also refrain from more unhealthy activities which usually cost a lot more money than just going for a run.

So go check out the local cooking classes or maybe even your college offers some options for learning to cook properly.  This should help you with the amount of college loan debt you accumulate because now what you buy will last you past one meal!
