To ask how much weight you have put on since lockdown began?

[QueenCally]

I’m at a grand total of 5 pounds!

Anyone else finding they’re gaining weight?

@amijustparanoidorjuststoned it is a problem to put on weight .. overweight and obese people are much more at risk of complications from Covid than those with a normal bmi ..

Maintained which is a relief as lost 2 stone since last Oct don’t want to undo good work. Easter didn’t help and have been drinking too much wine with diner but that stops tomorrow as holiday ends. Have been doing an hours turbo and weights every morning as usual

5lbs. I work out with the kids for 30 mins every day and drag them round for a daily walk. I’m not eating more either but I’m clearly not getting on as many steps as when I was tearing around commenting and doing pick ups etc.
Would work out more if I could but my job is relentless at the moment (50 hour weeks WFH) and then there’s homeschooling to be done too

Commuting*

I haven’t checked, but I’m guessing probably around the 4-5lb region. I’m eating more meals and doing a lot less exercise. I’m also drinking more.

I want to spent the next few weeks getting it back under check but honestly I am unmotivated I can’t be bothered.

3lb, and that’s whilst I’ve been trying hard not to! Still within the healthy BMI but now closer to the top end. Annoyed with myself. Have been having too much wine, cheese and chocolate. And cooking endless meals for young children, so can’t avoid being in the kitchen.
Mostly snacking out of boredom.

Too scared to look at the scales. I can 'feel' my thighs when I walk though so I know it's something and not just temporary bloat on the abdomen.

I think I'm maintaining at the moment but that won't last for long.

Amazed at the people moving MORE. Before lockdown I was just active all the time and now hardly move.

Another one who has been too scared to look but I have switched to wearing joggers instead of my jeans

I will weigh myself tomorrow. I imagine there is a COVID Fatties thread on weight loss?

None so far, but I'm keeping a close eye and trying to remain active. PT work and a young child helps!

we all weighed last night,the 9 y old has put on weight,which is normal(normal for him to do 2-3 pounds a week)the 15 y old has stayed the same, me and my partner has lost

our normal lifestyle is caravan holiday sites every 6 weeks,educational day trips,normal day trips,home ed groups, beach days forest walks,cinema 2-3 times a week(depends if there is anything out that week)scouting activities,camping trips

as we home educate and are a scouting family we are out most days

we buy food on the go either fast food places,pop in to restarants or take a picnic,we never make from home its bought on the go at a supermarket

when home we make home made fresh food so as we cant live or normal lifestyle we are eating more home made meals

Not looking! Thinnk it's about half a stone, putting me just over mid range in the healthy bmi category. I'm used to being on my feet all day and that's stopped now.

Just waiting on my dvd to arrive (my previous one has disappeared) then will get back to losing again. I'm not going back to work fatter

Almost a stone! I'm picking constantly and wfh so hardly walking plus drinking a glass of wine or 2 most evenings out of pure boredom. I need to sort myself out

I have lost 2lbs so far.....feeling really down and not much of an appetite...honestly guys, quit worrying about the small stuff..so long as we all stay safe that's all that's important atm..x

We've all lost weight, eating healthily at home even with treats and taking our daily exercise with the dog.
I'm a SAHM but dh and the kids all eat too much crap during the day

I've lost 18 pounds (I'm big enough that there's still plenty to lose)

Combination of still working and having to walk further as the bus that stops near work isn't running, no fast food, far less snacks and DD and DH being so bored that I come home to really healthy home cooked meals rather than the processed crap I generally eat.

Also losing weight. Thanks to the gall stone diet I have visible clavicles and intermittent abdominal pain! Go me!!
Tbh: I'd be enjoying lockdown much more if I could have some comfort food.

None.

I've been doing more exercise.

I haven't dared weigh myself but I know I've gained as my clothes are getting tight. Too much wine and snacking and I miss my active job. I need to start sorting myself out.

I've actually lost half a stone. But I'm a care home manager and I'm working all the hours and it's so stressful that I'm not even hungry.

After all this is over I'm fairly sure it will all go back on.

I’m trying not to think about it.

I’m still working in an active job. But I’m definitely eating more and drinking more alcohol at weekends.

It’s probably only a couple of pounds extra so far, but it’s only going in one direction.

The first week I was awful- I drank wine every day and comfort ate. I had a word with myself, tried to eat normally and started Couch 2 5k. I don't think I have gained or lost over all (probably gained in the first week then lost what I'd gained.) I'm pleased with myself for sticking to the running and the best thing about it is it stops me reaching for the wine. About to start WK 4.

I dare'nt get on the scales, everthing has become very tight!

I need to get back to having mealtimes instead of eating the whole time I'm awake. I've just realised that's actually what I'm doing!
