City Living - Fantastic Finances, Superb Social Life But Failing Fitness

Living in London, the capital city of England and one of the most important financial

centres and popular tourist destinations in the world is a thrilling experience.

Bustling with people from the break of dawn to the early hours of the morning, you'll be living amongst some of the richest and most popular people on earth, as well has having access to world famous restaurants, theatres, shops and museums.

And if you're working in London as well as living there, you'll be part of arguably the world's top three cities for business, with companies from Bentley to Saatchi and Saatchi all having premises within the London vicinity.

Now whilst you may be able to experience all of this whenever you wish if you're residing in the city centre (or even near by on a tube or bus route), there's one thing you might feel you won't be able to do if your working, which is getting and staying fit.

For example, it might seem obvious to sign up to a gym in London - and for some people it is.

But what about those people who wake at 6.00am, get into work for 7.30am and don't leave until twelve hours later? Yes, any gym in London is likely to stay open until late evening, but if you're not leaving the office until 7.30pm, after twelve hours of work, could you really be bothered to go and do an hour in a gym?

In addition, as work takes up such a large amount of people's lives in the city, their diet tends to suffer as well.

Although it would be ideal to have poached egg and toast for breakfast, a homemade salad for lunch and then fish, boiled potatoes and steamed vegetables for dinner, the reality is often far, far different.

With a breakfast bar that is high in sugars for breakfast, a salty, carbohydrate rich shop-bought sandwich for lunch and then a microwave meal for dinner, you could easily exceed your recommended daily allowances for salts and saturated fats in the last meal alone.

So what's the option if you live in the city and want to get healthy?

It's simple - just plan a little.

Whilst joining a gym in London and signing up to group diet plan would be the easiest option - and the first point is actually strongly recommended if you can afford the time - it's not the only choice.

For example, by getting out of bed fifteen minutes earlier and going to sleep fifteen minutes later, you're only using thirty minutes extra out of the whole day, but you'll be able to do so much with that time.

With the fifteen minutes on a morning, you can stretch and do several sets of push ups (or even go for a short jog) and the time spent on an evening could be spent preparing your breakfast and lunch for the following day.

No matter where you live in the country, the one thing you need to do to lose weight is to prepare and although you might not think you have time to devote to preparation, it's highly likely that you will be able to find fifteen or twenty minutes at least sometime throughout the day- and it will be well worth it if you can.
