WELL I HAVE BEEN A SMOKER FOR ABOUT 12 YRS. I HAVE TRIED SEVERAL TIMES BUT NO LUCK. I WAS ALWAYS AFRAID I WOULD GAIN MORE WEIGHT. IVE BEEN HEAVY ALL MY LIFE. SO NOW IM TRYING TO EAT HEALTHIER AND QUIT SMOKING AT THE SAME TIME. SO FAR IVE BEEN SMOKE FREE FOR 8 DAYS NOW AND HAVE LOST 8 POUNDS IN THE LAST THREE WEEKS. HOPEFULLY I WILL HAVE THE WILLPOWER TO KEEP IT UP!

    Congrats on quitting smoking,i'v been smoke free for 1 yr. I did gain 10 lbs when i quit smoking but i thiught it was better than smoking and i feel so much better and i got my taste buds back,i can exercise longer and harder,so theres tons of benefits for quitting smoking.
  • Good for you! Keep up the good work, it gets easier! I quit 5 years ago, my husband quit 29 days ago. You are doing it the best way, by watching what you're eating and excersising. Be proud of yourself and keep reminders all over your house as to why you have made this great decision!
