Hi, I am new to this site and excited to be motivated by other members. I quit smoking last June and have gained a few pounds that need to go away since my daughter is getting married this coming July. I hope to make new friends that I can support in our joint efforts of watching our intake of calories and motivate each other to get out of the computer chair and move around. Lets go!

    Hi and welcome to MFP. You are a step ahead of me because giving up smoking is the next thing I want to do.
    You can add me as a friend if you would like some support.
    Good luck on your weight loss journey

    Congrats on the smoking! I found that almost harder than weight loss.

    Welcome to MFP! I just started about 5 days ago, but I LOVE this site so far and am so inspired! I quit smoking last july- yesterday was actually my 6 months tobacco free, and it was so worth it- but I do think I gained about 15 lbs because of it grr! Best of luck to you! :)

    I don't feel that I ate that much more; maybe just a metabolism thing since I quit smoking.
