Can someone please tell me that it is normal and okay to put on a few pounds during this lockdown time?
I'm exercising. I'm doing my best to eat healthy meals most of the time. But damn. This is just hard overall. I'm stressed, I'm sad, I'm depressed and anxious all at once. I'm distracted constantly and finding it so hard to focus. I mean. This is just hard. So someone tell me it's okay to gain few. It'll just make me feel better. Thank you.
Update: after reading a few comments I wanted to say that I'm grateful for the input. Grateful for fitness blender and grateful that despite how weird everything is right now, it's not worse. I'm realizing that my worry over some weight gain is incredibly trivial. And my heightened focus on it is my coping mechanism- a way to hold on to and control at least something in my current life. And that's delusional thinking at this time. I will work on this realization moving forward instead of my scale number. Perspective.
