    Thanks for the Support. The funny Thing is that I am not dieting to lose weight..... I am changing my Lifestyle to lose weight. I would two days without eating...... When I did eat, it was one meal.... usually at the end of the day.

    I dont drink Soda or Pop...... alcohol, less that once a month... and usually only a glass of wine or a cosmos with dinner.

    I lived on coffee and smokes.......

    Started to make the Change..... eating and tracking my Food........ exercising....doing at least 10.5 KM per day......

    Was making excellent Progress and decided to stop Smoking and the creamer.

    I have yet to meet my calorie intake..... before I ditched the coffee creamer. I was always almost 900 under.

    Dude, you may need to rethink your relationship with food.

    Sorry, not a dude..... and just dont like to eat. Hence the reason why I am changing my Lifestyle.

    Unsweetened almond milk is a great alternative to creamer! It's only 30-40 calories (depending on brand) per cup!! so per Tbs, that's only 2 calories!!

    Probably your body is reacting to the changes you've made. I cut way down from smoking (down to one or two a day now) and I gained some weight, not much, but yeah. Without knowing your history and only having limited knowledge myself, I would say look up the effects of quitting smoking on losing weight, research damaged metabolism, find credible nutrition websites, and keep making those changes. It does take time. I NEVER thought I would be an unsweetened tea drinker. Now, sweet tea is gross to me.

    I count my coffee creamer... and it has helped me to drink less coffee in a day :) The regular (unflavored) creamers are 10 calories each for an individual tub. When I'm at work I try to have 2 per cup. At home, I use skim milk... And I drink diet coke for a caffeine boost in the afternoon.

    You're doing great - stick with it! I've been on this diet for nearly a month... hadn't lost any pounds on the scale and then yesterday, I was down 4 pounds! Everyone is different :)

    Do not start smoking again. I agree with what everyone else said. Give yourself time. Stressing yourself out isn't going to help.
