Has anyone else gained weight during lockdown?

[Flower2603]

We're all at home during lockdown working or doing sixth form work. We're only doing 1 dog walk per day to not go out so much.

There is very little routine to stick to so we're making the most of being together and that includes a nice evening meal with the family.

But I'm definitely eating more during lock down and have put on a few pounds

It looks like the whole world is out running and jogging or bike riding, am i the only one who is struggling with the weight at the moment?

I’m concerned about being overweight as that appears to put you in a more “vulnerable” position. I am eating more but not really putting on weight... my alcohol intake has increased marginally but I do a lot of walking.

Oh yes. Was losing and at gym before and I’m big to start with. Now I’m screwed.

Yes. I lost some at the beginning due to being ill but it all came back on and then some with the amount of steroids i was on, i was absolutely starving on them coupled with insomnia. Been good the past week and a half so hopefully it will start slowly coming off plus going back to work where i won't dare eat with wearing a mask haha

Yes, I was losing a bit at Slimming World and was exercising more, but all that is up the spout now sadly!

Iv actually lost weight averaging 6 miles a day walking and about 30/40 cycling miles a week

PS (yes i know dont tell anyone im out more than an hour...)

Yes, at least five pounds so far!

I weighed myself on first day at home. I’m sure my works trousers won’t fit me as I’m not doing any exercise at all.

I've gained 4 lb , 4lb that I'd worked hard to lose before lockdown. I'll try and lose it when this is all over.
