I quit smoking 3 months ago and have put on 5 kilos, which is depressing me really.. so im coming back on to MFP after being gone for a while. Any advice for helping me loose and keep off any more weight would be great.. :)

    I smoked for over thirty years and when I decided to quit is when I decided to not let quitting be a reason to snack.... So I started using my hands to make jewelry for my friends, puppets for my grandson, Christmas ornaments etc.... That was six months ago, and to be honest, I rarely think about smoking, and counting calories and working out has kept the weight off.. And helped me lose 20+ lbs.
