I know that when you quit smoking weight gain is an issue that you need to count on. Dont get me wrong I am very happy that I am quit, but this weight gain is getting me a little down I will admit. I work out 25 minutes at lunch ( eliptical and treadmill) and another 30-40 minutes after work and I still have gained weight. I eat healthy and am beginning to feel that no matter what I do I am destined for the gain. I am sure it will balance out eventually but at this point 90 days into my quit I am just a little frustrated. Just needed to vent as I am sure I am not the only one whose metabolism has HALTED. Guess I just want to hear that I am not the only one experiencing this and also would like to know if anyone has any idea when this will level out. Thanks all !!! CJ :confuse:

Goldie: I am going to Mexico in March in celebration my 100 days anniversary, and went to try on swimsuits the other day !!!! SCARED MYSELF TO DEATH !!! haha. I posted a thread earlier because I am soooo frustrated with this weight issue. I have smoked since I was 14 and I am 45 now so I really dont know what my "normal" metabolism is. I know exactly what you are going through. I am sharing in your tears !!!haha. CJ

RissaRoo: I had the same problem when I quit as most of my close friends smoke. I did however ask them to be considerate of the fact that I had quit and they did. I did not go anywhere that triggered my cravings which was a bar etc... I even gave up a girls weekend to avoid a slip. My suggestion would be to stay away from any situation that might question your quit until you are further along. Giving up a few good times now will be worth it later. CJ

Butterfly: Both of my parents smoked. My mom actually let me start smoking at home at 15 when she found out I smoked so I would not be out with gangs smoking "other things" . That sounds pretty funny now. CJ
