Contrary to ...I love London; it is my kind of town. Contrary to popular belief this is not some feeble attempt at plagiarizing advertising copy from other major cities in the world.<BR/>Bad times and good, I have lived and worked in London through them all.<BR/>London is full of History. History that it would appear that most Londoners take for granted.<BR/>Everything in London seems to be clustered: All the antique bookshops, all rich people who are owners of huge <A HREF="http://www.booklimo.co.uk/" REL="nofollow">Limousine London</A> vehicles are on the same street. . All companies that make CG effects for movies are within few blocks of each other. The big web companies (except for Google, who have moved into a 'palace' near Victoria station) and web ad agencies are also within a small radius of each other. London will always be special for me as I met my lovely wife here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575702397304431805.post-82803312181611669852007-11-29T07:01:00.000-08:002007-11-29T07:01:00.000-08:00Howie,Thank you!

Walking fast, holding bags, and not to mention wearing several pounds of warm clothes. Oh and you can't forget the inclines. All of that is a recipe to keep weight under control. I am a firm believer that diet is 65% of the puzzle, but I now there is a gray area. If you live in a city where you do tons of walking diet must be more like 50%. <BR/><BR/>I'm glad to be back!Lauren Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07329485509526075515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575702397304431805.post-23372804769920186392007-11-29T06:59:00.000-08:002007-11-29T06:59:00.000-08:00Jennifer,It just may be that true!

I just hope getting through the airports and the flight weren't too rough with the little one.<BR/><BR/>As for walking in NYC, not only do you walk everywhere, but you are also usually carrying a work bag around with you, and on top of that, not only do we walk here, but we walk FAST. It becomes a habit of walking fast. Much faster than the typical stroll people outside the city take. And Manhattan isn't all flat either, lots of graded avenues as well.<BR/><BR/>Glad to have you back with us and looking forward to reading about your further exploits.Howie Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10660165934860808313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1575702397304431805.post-80452743832903408232007-11-28T02:01:00.000-08:002007-11-28T02:01:00.000-08:00Lauren,Glad to hear you had a nice trip to the UK....Lauren,<BR/>Glad to hear you had a nice trip to the UK. Interesting thing about the weight loss and the walking theory. I wondered the same thing a few years ago when I went to NYC. I'm from TN, and the obesity rates here are even more insane than they are everywhere else. But when I went to NY, I couldn't help but notice that not only did people walk everywhere but most of them were slender. I attributed the discrepancy in obesity rates to the amount of walking living in the city required. I wonder if it's truly that amazingly simple.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17077930691017238101noreply@blogger.com
