Gaining weight in the pandemic? Here’s some tips to stop

I’ve been reading a lot about people gaining weight as they sit at home and are forced to cook during this Coronavirus pandemic. I actually lost four pounds when I was sick for three weeks in March as it was all beginning. Sadly though, after-Easter candy sales mean I’ve put that weight back on.

So I was interested when an email came my way promising The 6 Best Foods To Stimulate Weight Loss. You might find the article useful if you somehow have never heard of the Mediterrean or similar diets.

The six foods all would fit into such a plan. They are:

1. Lean meats
2. Fruits and vegetables
3. Avocados
4. Eggs
5. Leafy Greens
6. Citrus

I don’t like the taste of avocados plus they upset my stomach, so I never eat them. I also only eat egg whites these days even though the popular thinking about eggs and cholosterol has changed over the years.

The others all are part of my everyday diet. Unfortunately these days, so are cream-filled Easter eggs and chocolate bunnies, so I’m afraid these six won;’ help with the impact of those.
