    Yes!!!! I went to college at Ashland University, so I am very familiar with Shelby!

    I lived in Ohio all my life until July of 07. I moved to Erie PA for graduate school. I am originally from Perry Ohio up along the lake. Very small town about 30 minutes east of Cleveland.

    Way to go with quitting smoking! It is such an empowering thing to do. You will feel great, and exercising will be so much easier. Welcome!

    Hi and welcome.
    I think you are doing yourself a big favor by starting a healthy fitness program at the same time you quit smoking. I quit smoking (after 31 years of a 2pack a day habit) one year ago. Last Monday, on my 1 year anniversary, I started a fitness program to try to lose the 25 pounds I gained during that year.

    I wish you all the very best in your attempt to live smoke free. Feel free to write to me anytime if you need encouragement. If I can quit smoking (don't know how many times I swore I never would), you can.

    I'm in Kansas, so I'm just a hop, skip, and a jump away,
