Starting Over AGAIN

Hey Ladyisnicoteenfree,  You did real good for 8 months and I'm sure you can do it again. Don't ever give up trying to quit, some day you'll get it right. Sooner is better than later especially since your still young.  Good Luck and be strong!

Newbie!!

Hi Sheila , Welcome to SSC and Congratulations on your quit.  I think it is very possible to quit smoking and loose weight at the same time.  I'm on day 73 of not smoking and I lost 5 pounds.
When I get cravings I drink a lot of ice cold  water, the first month I had a glass of water by my side all day long. I also exercise when the cravings get to strong it helps relieve all that  anxiety and also helps with the weight loss. 
The best of luck to you.  I"m sure with lots of will power you will be able to achieve your goals....

Remission?

Miss Marple  I wish I had the powers to change your situation.  This is an eye opener for all young smokers to quit now today and never smoke again.  I think they should band cigarettes and stop selling them.....My prayers are with you
