Hi, KellyAnn! Will you be able to keep a microwave in your room? Or is a community microwave for everyone on your floor to use?
I don't know if you're stable or what you can tolerate, but here's a list of some food items I kept in my dorm room (and some I wish I knew about back then!):
--Thai Kitchen rice noodles or rice bowls (Delicious and safe! Flavors include ginger, lemongrass, curry, garlic, spring onion and more! 68-99 cents a packet)
--Quaker instant oatmeal (check to make sure you don't get the ones with dairy--I do fine with plain or Maple & Brown Sugar)
--applesauce and/or fruit cups
--peppermint/fennel/chamomile teas
--peanut butter (if you can tolerate it)
--sliced, white bread
--low-fat saltines
If you have a mini-refrigerator in your room, I'd recommend getting some soy yogurt, soy/rice milk, and soy/almond cheese if you can tolerate it and if your cafeteria doesn't provide soy products. There's not always a lot of safe choices from the cafeteria, but my cafeteria always had a cereal bar and some sort of soy milk available along with bananas.
I'd also recommend taking a heating pad or stocking up on those heat patches.
I hope this helps! I wish you the best in college!
