Being healthy is of utmost importance to a healthy immune system! Remember, it’s not just about weight, it’s about overall health. You want to make sure you’re getting enough rest, eating the right foods, and staying active.
If you’re trying to lose weight, remember, weight loss is 80% diet. Don’t eat just because you’re at home. Remember to follow your hunger cues. Eat when you’re hungry, stop when you’re satisfied.
When buying foods to eat, remember to try to get fruits and vegetables to balance the carbohydrates. You may want to get some frozen vegetables and fruits–they will keep longer, and you can at least make a smoothie out of the fruit. (Remember, frozen fruits and vegetables are frozen at the peak of freshness, and retain many of their nutrients). Don’t be tempted to simply fill your cart with unhealthy snacks and processed foods–this will pack the weight on, and it is not good for your immune system.
Activity/Exercise
There are lots of options for exercise. You can go for a walk/run/bike ride if the weather is nice. Sunlight (UV) is good for killing germs, as long as you’re 6 feet away from others, you’re okay. Additionally find some online resources for free streaming services to stay active while remaining responsibly socially distant. (*As any disclaimer, consult you personal primary care physician before beginning any exercise program*)
