Default heavy! with poll)

I meant to post a poll with this since people really can't expected to be honest otherwise!

OK, so who put on weight since moving to the US????

Do these people eat out a lot or what!!!!

I've definitely piled it on. It's just so much easier to get take away when it's hot and you can't face cooking

I'm fitter, despite the fact I eat like an absolute hog with chinese takeaway and italian food most weeks. I fit jeans that I couldn't even get my leg in when I first came here. I just make sure to keep my activity levels up by walking to the shops, etc. I go for a walk at lunch, walk the 3 blocks to and from Grand Central to work, and stand during the 30 minute subway ride home.

The food is so good and cheap, and sugar is laced into everything, that it is very easy to explode in size if you are too sedentary. A friend of mine went to work in AZ for 6 months, and came back 100lbs heavier! He was a programmer, so no surprise there

Was really glad to hear you finally found work, Nathan, after all your perseverance. What's the job?
