Keto & Weight Loss: Staying on track during COVID-19 Stay At Home Orders
As most of us know, we are trying to control the spread of the virus throughout the population, which has led to social distancing, staying at home when your sick and staying at home to prevent getting sick as well. Staying home is definitely not something we're used to when our normal schedules keep us busy with work, school and just being out and about. This disruption has lead to many challenges that result from the additional stress caused by being at home, which has also led to some disruptive eating patterns for some. We've also been receiving many questions from patients at the practice on how to stay on track and cope with the additional stress they are experiencing with social distancing. Michelle and I recently hosted a Facebook Live AMA event and received many questions on this topic that we were happy to answer. We decided to further discuss some of the most popular questions we received.
