COVID-19 and Your Weight

COVID-19 has provided a real incentive for anyone looking to lose weight as obesity is a major risk factor for severe symptoms and even death related to the novel coronavirus. Underlying medical conditions such as heart disease and diabetes are also often related to obesity.

For others, the pandemic may be contributing to weight gain due to the stress of quarantine, isolation, health and financial worries - the list goes on and on.
