How to make sure you don't pack on pounds?
Millions of people have been learning about
nutrition and weight control the hard way during
the recent COVID-19 crisis. That's because so
many stuck-at-home adults are forgetting to
exercise and making unwise food choices, partly
out of boredom and partly out of frustration at
the lack of socialization. There's even a new
term that's entered the language as a result of
so many folks gaining weight during the
lock-down "quarantine 15." This new bit of
jargon refers to the 15 pounds you are apt to
gain if you just eat whatever you want, whenever
you want, all while waiting out the virus
crisis. So, what's the best way to avoid
quarantine 15? There are plenty of solutions to
the dilemma. The main thing is to learn how to
avoid packing on the pounds during these unusual
times. One obvious remedy is to have contact-free
meals delivered daily from a company like
Fitness Kitchen, SoCals premier meal delivery
service. Tips for Staying Sane and Avoiding
Weight Gain Here are some of the things people
are doing to stay trim, remain fit, and maintain
their sanity while living in quarantine

• Exercise every day There's no need to become a
  bodybuilder or fitness buff. The key thing to
  remember is to exercise every day, even if that
  means just 20 minutes of walking, taking a short
  job, doing some calisthenics, or lifting weights
  in your living room. Since you won't be able to
  go to the gym, turn your private living space
  into a place where you can do a simple workout.
  Do your walking or

jogging outside for a change of page. Avoid using
treadmills when you have the option of being
outside in fresh air.

• Don't keep junk food around This is one of the
  oldest weight-loss secrets. It has withstood the
  test of time because it works for most people
  who try it. Don't buy or store junk food in your
  home. Keep plenty of fruits and vegetables on
  hand to satisfy snack cravings. If the
  low-nutrition junk isn't there, you won't be
  able to eat it. It's as simple as that.

• Vary your activities To avoid boredom, which
  often leads to over-eating and compulsive
  snacking, try to vary your day's activities. For
  example, a day with a "varied" schedule might
  include mean you go for a walk or bike ride,
  play a board game with family members, eat lunch
  on the patio if the weather allows, phone a
  couple friends and reminisce, break up your job
  hours into three small sessions and spread them
  out from early morning to late afternoon, do some
  yoga stretches, listen to music, read, avoid
  watching too much TV, go to bed after taking a
  hot shower or bath.

• Socialize creatively You can't go to movies or
  to the gym during the quarantine, but you can use
  your phone and computer. Make a list of people
  you have wanted to contact and send them either a
  hand-written letter or a thoughtful email
  message. Stay in touch with family via video chat
  and frequent phone calls. Check in with
  neighbors via text or telephone to see if they
  need anything. This is especially pertinent for
  older folks who live nearby.

• Drink lots of water Here's another
  tried-and-true weight-loss tip that anyone can
  do. Staying hydrated is important anyway for
  purposes of general health. But when you're not
  able to be out and about as much as normal, it's
  wise to drink water frequently in order to quell
  random food cravings. There's a bonus in that
  you'll probably discover that your skin is
  clearer and smoother. Water has a way of making
  us look our best.

• Buy locally-sourced meals Using a meal delivery
  service is something millions of consumers are
  doing in order to make sure they get clean meals
  that are made fresh daily. No matter where you
  live, select the best meal delivery service and
  try to find one that offers paleo to vegetarian
  meals.

• Weigh yourself every day before breakfast
  Knowledge is power. When you weigh yourself every
  morning, you know where you stand in terms of
  weight gain or loss. That way, it's harder for a
  "few

5
pounds" to creep up unnoticed. An even better
thing to do is log your daily weight on a
calendar you keep on the kitchen wall. Whenever
you prepare food or open the refrigerator, you'll
be reminded of your current body weight. The
psychology of this technique is much more
powerful than you might suspect. Try it for a
couple weeks and see for yourself.

• Take frequent breaks while working If you're
  working at home during the quarantine, take short
  stretch or walk breaks every hour. Not only do
  these mini-breaks help keep your blood
  circulating, you'll be able to avoid boredom and
  short-term burnout from staring at a computer for
  hours on end. As veteran work-at-home folks can
  tell you, boredom often turns into weight gain.

• Practice moderation if you drink alcohol It's
  easy to consume too much alcohol when you're
  cooped up at home for several months. Don't fall
  for the trap of turning to alcoholic beverages to
  treat boredom. That's a fast route to weight
  gain and possibly developing a dependence on
  wine, beer, or liquor. Avoid packing on the
  pounds by limiting alcohol drinks to just one or
  two per day.

  syndrome is to choose any of F itness Kitchen's
