5 Reasons It’s All Too Easy To Get A Bit Chubby When You’re Living In Dubai

The Dubai stone – we all know it’s real. 

After a few months of settling into life in the UAE, you get a tad too comfortable, and enjoy a few too many outings. And bam, you gain weight. 

No one can escape the Dubai stone’s clutches… and here’s why. 

7 48357 That Moment When You Realized Dubai Made You Fat And Its Too Late

1. Brunch 

You, and most of us, love a brunch. All you can eat, all you can drink – how is this not a great idea?! Until the 7th one in, and you start realising how many thousands of calories you’re ingesting in the one sitting eh? 

2. Cheap curries 

Is there anything more comforting that a hearty Indian dish enjoyed in your pjs? They’re so cheap and delicious, you end up getting a couple a week, and that’s just dangerous. 

3. All the delivery services 

The fact that you don’t even need to leave your house for basic necessities means you can stay seated as long as you want. 

4. There’s too many fun things to do that aren’t gym

Between all the fun food festivals, dinners with friends, brunches, missing gym is all too easy – particularly on weekends! 

5. Cabs, Careems and Ubers are so dang cheap 

Why walk anywhere when it’s only AED15 to get from A to B? 

It’s too easy to not have to walk anywhere, between the tram, the metro, taxis and valets, and having everything delivered. 

You rarely have to walk anywhere here! (Plus it’s too hot to anyway)

But if you want to get in shape, there are also loads of ways you can!
