As the country reopens, many of us will be taking stock of our lives in light of the new normal. Weight gain will be a common theme as many people have spent the last few months in an artificially sedentary state, remaining indoors for excessive periods of time with little to do but eat. However, this is an extremely stressful time for everyone and it is important to be kind to yourself. While physical health is important, mental health is equally a priority. Make small, gradual changes and focus on total body well-being, rather than a crash course in weight loss.
