This is the only benefit of the lockdown
I am experiencing the exact opposite, weight gain. Much less exercise, especially miss lap swimming. Getting much less exercise and burning less calories. Also, we usually eat fresh fruit and vegetables and lots of fresh fish. All that stuff requires frequent shopping and has a short shelf life. It seems like almost all foods with a long shelf life are either loaded with carbs or sodium. We are finding it hard to eat a healthy, low carb diet, without frequently going shopping and risking exposure.
