Why would your weight change just because of exams? They aren't even hard, they are just there to make it look like you did something for your degree.

I have my first exam in a week and its like I don't even care. I know exactly how much study I need to do over the next 5 days and I will get it done no problem. I'm thinking about the party I am going to next weekend more than my exam.

Gain it. I tend to procrastinate and give myself excuses to prolong the long awaiting study sessions. They usually involve food.

I'm a comfort eater. I stress myself out over uni work for absolutley no reason, and do my comfort eating before i even look at what it is i need to do. Once i figure out what i need to write or learn, its actuallynever as bad as I had imagined

I rarely gain weight but I'll definately gain some centimetres if I don't watch it. :(

Hence why I love the MQ thread so much :D

Hm, I personally gained weight during the HSC but its remained static since then, possibly fluctuating by 1-2kg inthe last 2 years. But I've lost a kg recently, although that might be from not eating as much junk at home as I do at uni. So I guess...this time, a loser?

During the week leading up to exams I tend not to be as physically active, but I still eat about the same, so I probably gain a little. I haven't actually checked though, but I'd probably lose whatever I gained soon after the exams are over.
