[quote=nostradamus]For active people it just doesn’t get any better than SD. If you like sports and staying in shape, this is the place to be.
I would consider moving, but then I see the fat people talking about life in the South or Midwest…
I almost got in a fight this weekend when someone tried to steal my volleyball and the dude called me a “20-year-old-jerk”. It wasn’t a very good insult considering I’m 37 but I do lots of sports in SD and he was clearly a tourist from elsewhere (paunchy, pasty, and white).
Maybe it’s good that we don’t have the best restaurants in the world, yet another reason to keep us in shape.
Sorry for all the geographic fatness generalizations, feel free to thrash me for it.[/quote]
You can be active in the midwest and south, I think the fatness is more about culture regarding eating and food choice. Yes, you have the beautiful weather and beaches for year round activity in San Diego, but I don’t think you have the worshipping of high fat foods like you have in other regions. Also, I think there are cultural attitudes about physical appearance – like being able to look good in a bikini on the beach.
