FitSugar | November 1, 2011 5:55 pmAs students settle into their new lives at college, chances are there's plenty of temptation to lead them away from any healthy intentions. That's been the reason why many say students gain the "freshman 15" their first year. But a new study says that's a myth — most students don't gain an extra 15 pounds the first year on campus.Read More

Lizzie Fuhr | August 18, 2011 11:35 amIt's already August, and that means it's nearly time to go back to school. I can't help but get a little nostalgic, and slightly jealous, about all the incoming freshmen who will land on campus for the first time and embark on some of the best times of their lives.
