Isn't that awesome, Cheeks? On of the cool things about quitting is we get to experience so many things in such an intense way, things that non-smokers can take for granted thrill & amaze us. Next, your sense of smell will return & that isn't always pleasant but it's still something to celebrate. It's way more good than bad from here on!

Cheeks, You are doing great! Eating has been my problem, but not because of the taste, more because it gives me something to do. I will take the extra weight over the smokes though. You should really be feeling proud by now!

Hey Jenn, Congrats on getting your sense of taste back! It sure is great, but it CAN be a problem, since the food tastes better, we tend to eat more. But like you said, if you keep it healthy, that should help. Soon, your sense of smell will return to normal as well, if it hasn't already, and that too is bitter-sweet... some things smell SOOOOOO wonderful, while others........ Well anyway, congrats on seeing some of the positive benefits of quitting! I'm sure you can't wait to see more... and you will! Crave the Quit!

It's only day 3 for me, but already food tastes better. I'm snacking on some Rainier cherries before I have to go to work and WOW they taste SO GOOD! This shouldn't be a problem as long as I keep eating healthy!
