Panic Eating Comfort Food

A Complete Lack Of Structure
Before the pandemic time, we all had proper routines, as we had to go to school, colleges, or work, we used to exercise, we used to have our meals at the proper time.
But, Now?
Most of us do not have a proper routine for almost anything and everything. The whole work from home and study from home scenario has ruined our daily schedule. We are also responsible for the complete lack of structure.
The time has now come when we again must develop a proper structure of our daily activities and start following them.
Caffeine Everyday, All Day
Working from home or studying from home has come with several other bad habits. It has brought too much work and study pressure. A huge part of the human population has turned towards taking more and more caffeine to regain energy.
We all are aware of the negative impacts of caffeine. It decreases the sleep quality along with exposing ourselves to other health issues. So, now, it is our duty to reduce the overall caffeine intake and opt for a healthy diet for the required energy.
Social Media Binges
Due to the pandemic going out and spending time with a group of people is a strict no-no!
All sorts of entertainment options for us have been closed. However, some of them are operating with a limited number of people, but going out is not that safe.
As a result of it, the only pass time or entertainment the people find is binging on social media.
If you are thinking, what is wrong with that?
Let us tell you; social media has several negative impacts. Instead of that, watch a movie at home, read a book, spend time with your family when you have free time.
Not Exercising
Yeah, we totally get the thing that you need the environment to work or to exercise. At the same time, you also should make a habit of those things which are actually beneficial for you and your health.

Skipping Breakfast
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. During this pandemic time, those late-night social media and Netflix binging has hampered your sleeping schedule. So, you are waking up late and start working or attending the online meeting right after opening your eyes.
As a result of this, you actually end up skipping the most important meal of the day, your breakfast. So, it is always advised to not sleep with your cell phone by your side and sleep early, wake up early, and finally have a complete and nutritious breakfast.
Keeping Food Delivery Services On Speed Dial
In this tough time, if you have to keep any number on the speed dial apart from your close ones is the number of your doctor. All those foods you are having from the outside are really bad for your health. Apart from that, you are totally unaware of how hygienic they are.
