<human>: So, my boyfriend and I decided last week to cut sweets down to next to nothing and stop drinking soda altogether.  It's been going well, the only day we really allowed ourselves sweets was yesterday (holiday) and we haven't had any soda, just water and crystal light.

Today we had our first weekly weigh-in.  I lost a pound, I don't know if it's my shitty electronic scale or if I actually lost weight.  I know just a pound can mean a lot of things but I'm still happy.  Any input on if it's actually weight or not?

On the other hand, my boyfriend apparently gained about 6 pounds...he's okay but kinda frustrated, tips for him?

Basically we both just need support and advice.  We're forced to eat at school cafeterias all week which are pretty notorious for shitty processed food.  The only thing healthy (which we've been trying to eat more of) are raw fruits and veggies.  Otherwise all they serve is crap, we're broke so we can't afford to buy our own food yet.  So yeah, tips?

Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?
<bot>: Boyfriend and I cut out sweets and soda, we weighed in today, I lost a pound, he gained 6.  We're broke and forced to eat at a cafeteria with unhealthy food.  Tips for both of us?
