I promise it will come off but you are going to have to really work. I have been very small my whole life- 5'7, 125 lbs but when I quit smoking I gained over 10 lbs. I am unable to get any of it off- my body is just getting back to what is notmal for my height- the weight I was while smoking was not really healthy.
Anyway, I work out 5 days a week and though I have not lost weight I look better than I ever have. I can run 3 miles in 25 minutes!! So I guess my point is don;t worry so much about the weight but more about how you FEEL. Toss the scale, it is a girl's worst enemy, especially one who is quitting smoking. Your metabolism should level out soon, but it won't ever be as fast as when you smoked. That was not natural or healthy- just think about how much higher your blood pressure was to sustain that high metabolism!!
So keep exercising, you are doing beautifully and even if you don't lose weight you will look and feel like a million bucks!!
Good job on 45 smoke free days!
