srs.
i'm in college and live in a house with a bunch of other guys. we don't really have any space in our fridge for much, so i just keep the essentials. i eat fruit every day and am pretty good about taking my multivitamin, but never really eat vegetables unless i eat out. is it ok to do this for a year or so until i get out and get my own place with more money/control over what i eat?

How does your overall fiber & micronutrient intake look?
If you're still getting in solid amounts of fiber & meeting the majority of your micronutrient needs, you'll be fine.�USMC (2009-2013) �

My fiber could definitely be better, but I wouldn't say it's awful.Originally Posted by InItForFitness

Vegetables are cheap, don't need to be refrigerated, and can be eaten raw. No excuse my friend

Even in a house with a bunch of other dudes and a small fridge, there is no reason that you cannot buy CANNED veggies and keep them in a box in your closet.

If you aren't eating veggies you likely aren't getting enough fiber or micros.
So yes, it is bad that you don't eat them.
Get a bigger fridge. Or take all the beer out lol.
You can buy them used sometimes and if you split the cost it probably won't be that expensive.I like personal responsibility and accountability. When you admit you are the problem you are simultaneously admitting you are the solution.

So you lift weights to improve your health and body composition, but you won't eat vegetables?
