We got a new puppy so I've been walking him three times a day.
However, all is not lost. I decided to fix my entire front lawn. I ripped out the entire front entry way of my house, removed all of the rock, planted new trees, and put down bark. On the side yard I removed all of the grass (which was mostly weeds), and planted three scrubs. In the process of doing all of this I had to re-design my entire irrigation system which has been interesting. Next I need to remove a large root, lay down weed barrier, and put down more bark. Then I'll actually start on the front lawn itself which doesn't need much work.
The weather has been nicer out so I've been cycling every day, about thirty or forty miles.

Adjust your eating bro. Whether you go to the gym or not, you should adjust your macros and calorie intake based on your activity levels.
There is no reason you should be gaining weight just because you stopped going to the gym.
Weight loss happens in the kitchen, pay attention to your food and adjust.
For me? Nothing out of the ordinary, been maintaining for over a year. Corona/lock down has not changed anything for me.
