Safely Losing Pandemic Weight During Covid-19
And you thought losing weight was hard during normal days. Until a vaccine is widely available, none of our days are likely to feel normal, and we’re all adjusted to new ways of taking care of our work, our families and ourselves. If taking care of yourself includes sticking to a weight loss plan–or starting a new one to lose the pounds you’ve gained from stress eating–then you’re probably facing these challenges:
The fridge is too close! Your office break room probably had a fridge, but most of the snacks and leftovers were labeled with someone else’s name. If you’re working from home, now the food is all yours and it’s there calling your name.
Some foods are in short supply. If you’re going to the stores, then you’re likely seeing some empty shelves. If you’re doing grocery curbside pick-up or delivery, then it can feel like a game show where you place your order and feel like a winner if your selected items are actually in your bags.
The gyms are either closed or you’re concerned about their safety. If your park is open, it’s crowded and hard to maintain a six foot distance. So you’ve had to find new ways to exercise–or you’ve landed on the couch and given up.
Your normal go-to resources for weight loss guidance–like Professional Weight Loss Management–may feel harder to access.
We have a solution for restoring your weight loss resources—visit us in-person in our Springfield or Branson clinics (BOTH ARE OPEN!), grab your phone or go online. Professional Weight Management can still support your weight loss plan with caring consultants, healthy snacks and vitamin/mineral supplements.
Phone/Video Consultations. If you prefer to stay home rather than visit one of our clinics, our consultants can give guidance, tips, and support during weekly one-on-one meetings via Facetime, Skype or audio call. You would need to weigh at home and, if you don’t have an accurate scale, we can make recommendations for inexpensive options available through Amazon, but if you are missing the encouragement you need to stay on track then a friendly voice may be exactly what you need!
Mail Delivery or Curbside Pick-up. Our PWM snacks are packed with protein and are all low-fat/low-calorie so you feel satisfied with no hunger pains. And our PWM vitamin/mineral supplements are always fresh and fully activated so your body get the nutrients it needs for more energy and faster weight loss. Just call us to place your order and we’ll mail it directly to your home (delivery charge may apply). Or get it faster with curbside pick-up–call us to arrange a time.
