The pandemic's impact on my health

I've been very lucky in that I haven't caught Covid19. But like most of us, I am sure my health has suffered a terrible impact from the lockdown and huge change of lifestyle. For one thing, serious travel restrictions have made it impossible for me to travel. I've also not been to the gym for a long time. Yesterday, I started my gym regime again. I've read a lot about the impact the pandemic has on many people and one major negative impact is weight. A lot of people have put on more weight. Those of us who take frequent selfies can always compare ourselves over the course of a year. I took a pic in the gym yesterday and I found a pic I took a year ago in almost exactly the same pose. I'm glad apart from a little more weight, I'm generally not that much different than I was a year ago. Here are the pics: the first was taken on 11 October 2019 and the second just yesterday, 30 November 2020. You can only find two pics that have such a remarkably similar pose and yet a year apart if you are a confirmed selfie addict. LOL.
