00:00:08.548 --> 00:00:11.940
(upbeat music)

00:00:11.940 --> 00:00:12.773
- My name is Matt.

00:00:12.773 --> 00:00:14.191
I've been out of college for seven years.

00:00:14.191 --> 00:00:16.240
And one of the main things I've noticed

00:00:16.240 --> 00:00:19.907
is how much more money
I spend on food today

00:00:21.910 --> 00:00:23.292
than when I was in school.

00:00:23.292 --> 00:00:25.126
I don't have the strict tight budget

00:00:25.126 --> 00:00:26.726
that I had in college.

00:00:26.726 --> 00:00:28.817
I went from ordering 5-5-5 deals

00:00:28.817 --> 00:00:32.348
to probably spending most
of my money on meals.

00:00:32.348 --> 00:00:35.221
And so I've wanted to
revert back to square one,

00:00:35.221 --> 00:00:36.876
and that's college.

00:00:36.876 --> 00:00:40.043
(cheerful jazz music)

00:00:48.906 --> 00:00:50.449
Three for a dollar.

00:00:50.449 --> 00:00:52.145
Even though I ate like such shit,

00:00:52.145 --> 00:00:54.886
I just want to see how
eating like that again

00:00:54.886 --> 00:00:56.518
would affect my day to day life

00:00:56.518 --> 00:00:59.505
because I gained 35 pounds
my senior year of college

00:00:59.505 --> 00:01:02.044
from eating this exact type of stuff.

00:01:02.044 --> 00:01:03.985
Part of me's kind of
looking forward to this.

00:01:03.985 --> 00:01:05.617
(upbeat music)

00:01:05.617 --> 00:01:06.883
- Just finished my softball game

00:01:06.883 --> 00:01:08.593
and literally all I wanna do is

00:01:08.593 --> 00:01:11.419
Seamless some food right now, but...

00:01:11.419 --> 00:01:12.752
College diet.

00:01:12.752 --> 00:01:14.918
(pot banging)

00:01:14.918 --> 00:01:15.751
Cheesy delicious magic.

00:01:15.751 --> 00:01:18.501
- (Voicover) Ew.

00:01:20.753 --> 00:01:21.586
Ugh.

00:01:23.234 --> 00:01:25.581
I'm actually going to

00:01:25.581 --> 00:01:28.535
employ a little trick I did in college.

00:01:28.535 --> 00:01:30.946
I heated my food up with a blow dryer.

00:01:30.946 --> 00:01:34.113
(blow dryer whirring)

00:01:35.404 --> 00:01:36.780
So a cup of noodles is still

00:01:36.780 --> 00:01:39.308
quite actually delicious.

00:01:39.308 --> 00:01:40.162
But the whole time I was eating,

00:01:40.162 --> 00:01:41.047
I was wondering

00:01:41.047 --> 00:01:44.258
why does this not seem healthy?

00:01:44.258 --> 00:01:47.340
And then I checked out
the nutrition facts.

00:01:47.340 --> 00:01:50.124
I just had 50% my daily value of sodium.

00:01:50.124 --> 00:01:52.791
This is also gonna be my dinner.

00:02:00.548 --> 00:02:01.782
I was actually thinking about it

00:02:01.782 --> 00:02:04.275
and all the junk food that I've had

00:02:04.275 --> 00:02:07.155
this week has been like
genuinely delightful.

00:02:07.155 --> 00:02:11.322
I actually am getting a
little too used to eating it.

00:02:12.424 --> 00:02:15.341
So, I ate like a college
student for a week.

00:02:15.341 --> 00:02:19.319
I had mac and cheese
three nights for dinner,

00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:22.263
like six cup of noodles
over the course of the week,

00:02:22.263 --> 00:02:24.096
I saved close to $180.

00:02:25.164 --> 00:02:26.839
I was like, holy shit.

00:02:26.839 --> 00:02:28.812
I do not think it's a
sustainable way of living

00:02:28.812 --> 00:02:32.685
just because I felt like
a lot more lethargic.

00:02:32.685 --> 00:02:36.034
Already feeling a little
bit like poopy in my tummy.

00:02:36.034 --> 00:02:37.677
As much as I don't love healthy food,

00:02:37.677 --> 00:02:42.002
I will admit that it does
make you feel a little better.

00:02:42.002 --> 00:02:43.385
So I actually brought food from home.

00:02:43.385 --> 00:02:45.172
But I'm gonna pay more attention

00:02:45.172 --> 00:02:46.643
to my Seamless orders

00:02:46.643 --> 00:02:49.192
and I will try to cook more often,

00:02:49.192 --> 00:02:51.197
I will try to actually grocery shop.

00:02:51.197 --> 00:02:54.696
I will try to just be a
normal well-adjusted adult

00:02:54.696 --> 00:02:57.416
instead of an overgrown college kid

00:02:57.416 --> 00:02:59.499
with more money to spend.
