Have you lost or gained weight

I keep hearing about this quarantine weight gain. Is it real or naa?

I have pretty much stayed the same but I've been running and swimming, I don't eat out, don't get workplace pastries daily etc. I have tried to lose weight but it's like my body just wants to stay where it's at. Maybe it's menopause lol.
How aboot u?

No menopause here op but my weight hasn't fluctuated either.

My hygiene has slipped because I work from home and no one really sees me...other than that..

Yeah, I don't go anywhere but I swim everyday so showers are mandatory. I had no poo experiment, though where you stop washing your hair with shampoo. It was interesting.

I cut down 10lbs or so until july, gained it all back now, basically at my precovid weight of 190ish.

I was still training from home, back in the gym for several weeks now

I was peak bulking right before corona, then during corona I backed off because I couldnt lift the same.

I went from just over 290 beginning of corona to 275 end of corona.

Then I developed some digestive issues not allowing my body to process what I Was eating, most of my food was just in and out so I went on a 8 week cut.

I have gone from 275 15%bf to now about 265 and 10% bf, made a real dramatic drop in BF in just 4 weeks while maintaining good weight.

The best part is I dramatically dropped carbs, upped protein, and I am almost never hungry still. Ive never had this happen before, but it really pays off building your metabolism up really high before dieting.

Cut down over the last 3-4 months. Down about 40 pounds or so. But had a lot of pudginess to get rid of after the leg injury last year.

I lost a few pounds first but then I just lose motivation and it gets boring to do the same training as gyms are closed.

Yup yup for sure about the metabolism. Uppin protons help with hunger too. I do intermittent fasting, it helps a lot too.

Gained weight, all fat. No gym, no motivation to eat right for performance on lifts. My pecs have turned to titties...fml
Do not think that what is hard for you to master is humanly impossible; and if it is humanly possible, consider it to be within your reach.

Weight loss/gain is a decision. I was in process of gaining weight, I continued to gain weight until I hit my target weight. Currently maintaining at 220 for 6 more weeks, then compete, then slow cut back to 200-205.

Best Meet lifts: S:805 B:705 D:560 Total:2070 (220, equipped, drug free)

I've lost about 5 lbs. Switched from lifting heavy to mostly conditioning with light weights since that's what I have available. I look better shirtless and feel better.

Am big fan of running and working from home gives me more time to do this during daylight hours.
Does it get cold down there? We only have about 2 cold months, 9 hot months and 2 weeks each of fall and spring.
