The past weekend I took a trip to New York City for a short vacation. Looking around on the busy streets and the underground bustle of the subway, I realized that the majority of New Yorkers had one thing in common; they were all as thin as sheets hanging on a clothesline. It occurred to me that I once fit in with these stick figures during my six month residency in Brooklyn. Since I moved back to Atlanta over two years ago I have gained some 30 pounds, maybe more.
The answer to why all these people are so thin is simple, they live in a walking city. They still enjoy fresh coffee and doughnuts at every corner, pizza or cannoli in all the five boroughs, but they walk as they feast on all that the city has to offer.
