It’s a difficult time that we are all experiencing due to the Covid-19 virus and its effects are being felt globally. Feelings of additional stress and anxiety may feel overwhelming for many of us as we try to keep some normalcy in our lives. People are adjusting their regular routines to cope with the many changes in society that are happening due to the virus. After all, regular routines of everyday life have been uprooted. Social distancing is forcing most of us to completely change our routines as many of us are working from home, home-schooling children and trying to adjust to a new way of life away from others.
Practicing social distancing is now common in the every day lives of people across the globe. With more hours being spent at home, the kids at home, and the threat of boredom comes the temptation to eat unhealthy, processed foods, and to overeat. Stressful times can certainly lead to over-eating or eating unhealthy junk foods. Remember, that it’s still important to eat healthy and stick with your meal plan. Make a conscious effort to think of and plan out your diet for the weeks to come and shop for healthy and keto-friendly foods to keep your meals, snacks, and overall diet on track.
