Hi everyone, time to get tough on myself, I've been quit nearly 6 months so I've got no excuse, the weight has just got to come off... I feel so lethargic and I have never been so short of energy. For 30 odd smoking years my weight hasn't moved from 147 pounds, I am now 182 pounds and I'm setting a target weight of 154 pounds. I don't want to go to my smoking weight cos I was too skinny, (I'm 5 foot 9 inches) and I'm pretty proud of my Jay-Lo Ass!! I'm hoping that getting acquainted with exercise for the first time in my life will do the trick. See you next Thursday for my first weigh in. Best regards, Lilly :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 5/11/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 160 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 4,821 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] �800 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 20 [B]Hrs:[/B] 20 [B]Mins:[/B] 15 [B]Seconds:[/B] 17

Hey Mira ... I've been out of town for a while. I think I gained 10 pds on vacation, so I now have 35 pounds that I need to loose. I started back on my diet yesterday, but I am hard core serious about it now. I'll be hitting the gym more and also starting a yoga class. My 'quit' smoking is just about effortless now ... so it is time to kick some butt with this getting back in shape issue. Hope to talk to you soon.

You are exactly right, you just have to do it. Let your mind say no all it wants. Let it keep on saying no as you walk your way right to the gym. LOL!!! Really, that is what it takes sometimes. Exercising really helps the quit process in my opinion. It helps to sweat out toxins/all those nasty chemicals. It helps to relieve the stress of new emotions that we don't know how to deal with quite yet. It helps us to have positive thoughts about ourselves. If anyone is not using exercise to help their quit, I strongly urge you to try it for a couple of months. It will help in so many areas of your life and your quit.
