Had to do something
Well ,first I quit smoking and gained 26 lbs.that put me at 311.So I started smoking again with the serious mentality that if I start smoking I must loose weight.Now I know everyone is going to say so what about the weight ,smoking is worst,and there probably right.But I was gaining weight so fast I had to do something.I never thought I could quit smoking,and I did it.So now that I know I can do it,I will lose the weight then do it again.Thats a promise I made to my self.I lost 30lbs in 7 weeks.I am looking to lose another 31 by Aug.19th.That is when I will turn 50.My diet includes eating alot of the right foods.Ill get in to it further in my next post.

I hear ya
My friend Vicki gained 30 pounds when she quit smoking. She started smoking again too when she started gaining so much weight. I only smoke at work but that is one of the main reasons I haven't quit yet, I've lost over 75 pounds so far and I'm afraid if I quit I'll gain some of it back, so that is discouraging. I feel like it is a lose-lose situation. They are supposed to be coming out with a drug in summer 2007 (FDA is supposed to approve it then) that is supposed to help people lose weight and quit smoking. Just imagine. We'll be in non-smoking, weight loss heaven!! Anyhoo, good luck to you and if you need a weight loss buddy, I'm here for ya!
