Have you gained weight in lockdown?

Question

Answer

I gained weight during lockdown for a good reason actually! I started powerlifting and have been going at it five days a week for 4 months now. I’m starting to get pretty strong and I’m excited to see where I go from here. I gained weight from the muscle mass I had. Originally I was 154 lbs. and now I am 158 lbs. I have been working super hard to maintain my body and have been able to do incredible things with my training!
I recently deadlifted 235 for a double, and my squat is at 165 while my bench is at 95. 
I have a mock meet this Friday that I’m super excited for and I can’t wait to max our since I haven’t tested my one rep PR in about a month for everything. 
Wish me luck! 😊💪

Answer

I lost my job during this, so I feel like that's why I have been gaining. I'm not on my feet and running around as much. I'm trying to start making an effort to be more active now.

Answer

I gained weight, but not because I was purposely staying home because of the lockdown, but because my husband and I were in a car crash in April, I broke my leg in three places, and I had to have leg surgery. Just been walking without crutches in the last month. Will probably take me awhile to lose the weight.

Answer

Yes because ive been pregnant the whole time.

Answer

Yes, but only because of pregnancy I’m all baby though. I’ve only gained 13lbs so far and I’m 37+2. I’ve worked out my whole pregnancy.

Answer

Yes, and no. 
I gained because I was pregnant (13 lbs total) but lost because she was born almost 5 weeks ago and am under my prepregnancy weight.

Answer

Yes but because of high estrogen birth control, not bad eating habits

Answer

No, I actually started working out harder and longer with all this extra time. I feel amazing.

Answer

No, I lost weight because I went through a breakup and got really OCD & depressed. Basically, got scared to touch anything when I stayed at my parents house to quarantine... 
It made it hard to cook. 
Now I'm back to being in a place I can cook & touch things.
I'm not happy to lose weight, because I am quite underweight & it's bad for my health.

Answer

6lbs, after maintaining a 20lbs loss for 1,5 year prior pandemic. So I'm back on track again, that's all, no stress.
