    My mom quit 4 years ago on April 2nd. She was a 3 pack smoker per day. She had lost weight before she quit and was worried about the same thing you are. Her doctor gave her some real advice. The weight gain is temporary...the advantages of quitting smoking is life long. So I am not going to lie to you and say that she didn't gain any weight, but it wasn't anything outrageous and I promise you this... she is now down 100 lbs today and is an avid runner. (She kicks my *kitten* and she is turning 50 in a few months!) :wink:

    I quit smoking about six weeks ago when I started getting serious about my health, I have lost 14 pounds during that time so you can do both at the same time. It is still hard but I just have to remind myself of why I need to change and that has kept me on track. Best of luck

    Thank you! That totally hit me right now.I CAN do both dang it. It's SO flippen hard though! I'm still doing it though. Got my Tic Tacs in hand, LOL!
