Hi everyone, my name is Elaine. I am 28 yrs old and live in Manhattan, New York. Devoted foodie and love cooking. There are too many restaurant temptations in the city than my body can handle. Its time to make a change! This is the first time I have started calorie counting and I am hooked. I love this site.

Anyone in the city who has fitness tips, please share.

:wink:

    Hey! Welcome to MFP!

    Perhaps go walk around central park, or other parks (like the one by NYU if I am correct..) I haven't been to the city for a while.
  • Hello!

    I am from New York too, I live in Brooklyn. My biggest recommendation is to walk anywhere you can instead of taking a taxi subway or bus. When you just say you are going to go out and walk around a park it can be a bit hard to get motivation... But if you have to go somewhere, and you are walking to get there, you will keep walking. I try to walk most everywhere I go, and it really helps.
