Hi all, how are you maintaining a varied and balanced diet during the current events? I.e. what sorts of foods are you eating? Just curious, and wanting a friendly discussion with some advice
Ah this is interesting. I'm eating things that are pretty easy to cook in an oven, so i.e. chicken nuggets, fish fingers, etc, but I'm pretty fed up of it all already

Whilst I'd never normally advise taking supplements, a daily multivitamin is a good idea at the moment, particularly if you are struggling to find enough green vegetables and fruits for the folate and Vitamin C. If you're spending a lot of time indoors, then make sure your multivitamin has vitamin D in it too.

Ah, I can't believe I didn't think of this *facepalm* Thank you

You're welcome The other things I'd recommend is perhaps a slight reduction in the energy content of your diet if you're accustomed to going to the gym and being out and about a lot. This will ensure you don't inadvertently gain weight, which is awfully easy to do.
Honestly speaking, I think most of us came to the realization that mainlining a balanced diet during these times will be very difficult. Just letting myself go and will re-work on myself when everything is back to normal.

Oh, that's also a good point, quite frankly I've eaten more cookies today than I can count

where do we get vitamin D from (for a vegetarian as well) ? Also, is it in cheese (which I take plenty to gain weight) ? Is it in toast ? I remember getting some bread loaf from M&S and I think I remember it saying that it's got vitamin D in it which is good as no sun here in UK... Thanks.

Yes, that's a good point. I'm so lost without the school lunches, since they're so varied

No sun, are you crazy? You must be living under a rock, there has been for literally everyday for the past two weeks now.
