Do you live a healthier lifestyle and get out and do more? or do you just do the same stuff as before you moved?

2010 is my year for getting healthy

I needed 12 months or so to adjust, blah blah blah (Excuses, excuses, excuses!)

Seriously, we were hampered by our personal situation last year & were unable to make more of where we live but intend to make up for it now that we are both working & in the same city!

Yep. Better food and fat-free stuff almost everywhere

I do have a healthier lifestyle in general but I think it has more to do with a sea change than geography. The weather is "better" here but because of the intense sun, you generally spend no more than the same amount of time outdoors as the UK. I do prefer the climate here, but it is not without it's problems. I enjoy the heat and the humidity is not an issue for me, but you really have to be out the sun at the extreme times.

I live a much healthier life in Aus
We came back for Christmas and i have put on a stone in 3 weeks !


Take me about 6 months to get it back off

I feel like i'm filming supersize me II

Well it's what you stuff in your mouth, that's the problem no-one forces you to eat it.

I was healthy in OZ and i'm healthy in UK...simple really.

That i do not deny, but the lifestyle i lead and the food i eat are very different in both countries.

Waking up, and its wazzing down with rain does not put me in the frame of mind for a run.

Also the fact that Indian food is so gorgeous in UK means i eat much more of it

So i think its both the food and the country that are to blame.

I accept no responsibility for my weight gain !!!!

Makes perfect sense to me.

I was going to suggest that the same quantity of Oz food contains weigh-less calories than UK food, hence the weight gain over here.


You wish has been granted! You may get healthier in 2010.

your lifestyle will only change here if you want it to, its easy to do stuff here due to weather ect, food is fresh and good, but more fast food than the uk, weekends are great but i still come home knackered from work mon -fri and dont feel like running around a park in the evenings ect, me personally i have lost a few stone in weight and yes weekends are packed and busy.

I Do a lot, And all the time, regardless of where I live...

If your a slob in the UK you'll be a slob here imo.

Rubbish

Australia has high levels of obesity....probably more than the UK.

The food is no different.

i dont know about healthier, but i feel better

Probably.

It was tongue in cheek.

How about outdoor activities, cycling, running, walking, hiking, trails etc...

totally agree, you have to want to get out and do stuff
