    You obviously have dedication - proven already.

    Now it's on to tackle the next obstacle! You can do it.

    I didn't gain my weight from quitting (I used Chantix 2.5 years ago) - but I know how hard it is... and I am smoke free and soon (well, relatively) will be fat free too!

    Welcome to MFP!
