I actually lost weight due to parosmia from Covid, as eating became unpleasant to say the least.

That is amazing. I have gained 5 to 10 and was feeling bad for myself. Now I can hold my head up when I go to the doctor.

I had nothing else to do last spring/summer. Lost almost 30 lbs and rode my bike over 3100 miles. I remember early on in the pandemic listening to European Drs. speaking about how overweight were at much higher risk. Helped me to stay motivated during the last 13 months to stay in shape and keep the weight off. Most people I know seem to go the other direction with it. I am fortunate to be able to drive to my base I sat on reserve all summer didn’t fly until August, worked out a ton..

I have to agree with you. I’m not sure if I put on weight. I didn’t really mark my weight at the beginning of COVID lockdowns but I feel heavier for whatever reason. Still same pants and belt though but if I’d guess, I would have put on about 5 lbs in the last year. Seeing those number, I feel a LOT better.

I will say that COVID didn’t have a huge effect on my home life. We don’t eat out much anyway and we have home workout equipment.

When on a trip, I’ve always been a bit of a food packer anyway but I would use the hotel gym. During COVID, instead of the gym, if the weather was nice, I’d go for a long walk outside (I hate running) and if the weather wasn’t so nice, I do stairs in the hotel stairways. That’s really been the only change for me.

Oh boy. You must be a joy to fly with. International too.

He sounds a lot more of a joy to fly with that the one that says we must wear masks in the cockpit for hours on end.

With that sense of humor “You must be a joy to fly with”.

9/10 of us would rather fly with a guy who doesn’t give a single flying monkey f*ck about whether or not we wear masks vs someone like you or your boyfriend WutFace.

You people are an absolute drain.
