September 2020: Shed the “COVID-19” Weight Loss Challenge

Move over, “Freshman 15.” There’s a new belt-busting threat fueled by the coronavirus pandemic cramming Americans into their homes, dangerously close to their snacks, sodas, sofas, and streaming videos. Beware gaining “the COVID-19.”

While this repurposing of the disease’s name obviously is lighthearted, the struggle is real. After all, the current situation is a recipe for weight gain. It doesn’t have to be, though.

In fact, just as simple things like washing hands, staying home, and keeping six feet apart when in public can help slow the spread of the coronavirus, easy options exist for eating healthy and being active.

Joining this challenge may be exactly what you need to get rolling with life again!
