First week

Well i stopped smoking on sunday and started my diet at the same time people said I was mad to do both maybe I am but I got on the scales today ok I know its not a week yet but i was pleased 4lb lost which is given me the motivation to carry on. My hacking cough is a lot better so i mkust be doing something right with all the support on here.

    I did the same thing! Stopped smoking, started eating right, logging calories and working out. Lost 15 pounds and got a HECK of of a lot healthier. Now working on the last 15-20 pounds.

    Congrats and know that you have already shown that you have the willpower to do this! Stay strong!

    This is also my first week. I have done really well recording my food and exercise. Haven't "weighed in" yet. Do you recommend weekly weigh ins? Please feel free to add me as a friend. I need love and support to continue my motivation. I'm a great starter, but not a great follow-througher:tongue:

    AWESOME!

    I don't even know you and I'm proud of you for quitting smoking. That's a huge step! While you could be crazy for doing both, I still think it's awesome! People who quit smoking tend to replace it with food. So maybe you're not really all that crazy and actually very smart! :)

    Keep it up! Everyone here will help keep you going!!
  • that is awesome that you are able to do both. its much easier to keep the weight off than try to get it off. good for you!!! :happy:
