The pandemic has expanded waistlines and fattened Levi's sales

Levi's sees a big lift in business as consumers rebuild closets for post-pandemic lives.

Not surprising that the COVID-19's lockdowns and social distancing efforts caused a collective weight gain.

They closed the sit down restaurants and sent everybody to the drive thru.

That could lead to a weight issue lol.

Many of the sit down restaurants are not great for one's health either. People used to go eat inside McDonald's, Wendy's, and other fast food places as well.

The loss of indoor dining was that big of a loss for me as a big home cooker. Restaurants are overrated.

I had a burger and fries at applebees yesterday. They state the calories on the menu. The total caloric intake for that meal was the amount of my daily limit if I was in a cut phase. One meal = total daily caloric intake. With alot of people going to restaurants multiple times a week. No wonder everyone is fat.

Eating out is definitely a way to pad on calories.

Restaurant food, especially from chain restaurants, is very salty, ie Sodium-maxxing.

So basically something that the government did for "our own good" lead to worsening our condition...what a surprise.

It didn't need to. People had plenty of free time and gyms are completely unnecessary to stay in shape. People love making excuses tho.

I simply did more outdoor exercises. Made me use parks and trails more. Ive only got more fit.

Since things are starting to return to normal I guess there is no reason why that weight should come off?

 

[Bible_Belt]

This is so true.

Also chem maxx, if that is a thing. Just the chemicals in the fast food packaging materials themselves have been tied to weight gain.

I admit i enjoy shyt food occasionally. I'm 80/20. 80% of the time im eating raw food but i like any occasional slob mac and a slobber with a coke lol

My girlfriend has a few cattle, and we now have a freezer full of beef. When I pick out dinner, I think of it by the former name of the cow I am eating. We have given people hamburger, then later sent them a pic of the cow they were eating, and it just blows their minds. "You monster, how could you murder that happy pet of yours?" seems to be a common sentiment when they connect their food to an actual animal. Kids will cry, adults will tell me they want to become vegetarian, knowing where your food comes from is way too much for some people to handle.

Politically correct gibberish.

I gained 11 lbs for the pandemic))) It is not surprising that due to the pandemic, sales of Levi's have increased, I would even say that sales at all online stores have increased, I wrote about this in my article. All these COVID-19 very much complicate our life, but someone was able to take advantage of this, and someone didn't.

Kinda sad that this became a reality. I used 2020 to work out even more. I ran more on trails cause there was nothing to go do, and hiked more outside. I came out even more fit than before, which has helped me greatly with getting girls atm.
