HI Candi! Worry about the weight later. It is more important to give yourself the gift of life than worrying about the extra pounds. If you start an exercise plan at the same time, that will minimze the gain. Read all you can here, there are all kinds of wonderful tips and advice here. Do the program, post lots and congratulations! :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]3/5/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 184 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 4,600 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $1,941.20 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 22 [B]Hrs:[/B] 11 [B]Mins:[/B] 49 [B]Seconds:[/B] 30

Congratulations for making the decision to quit! Stay close and post often, you can do it this time. Great accomplishment to cut down half a pack already, take another step and try smoking only outside and not in your vechicle anymore, you will find just little rules like that will help the cutting back too. Good luck and be sure to visit us often.

I tried to quite smoking last christmas when i found out my dad had lung cancer. But that didnt work. Then Jan 25 after i was holding his hand when when he took his last breath. I knew i am going try to quite smoking but i wanted to wait till after summer. Because i didnt want to gain any weight. I had a baby in march 2006 still didnt loose all the weight but didnt want to add anymore on for the summer. Been on Chantix for a week still smoking but cigarettes isnt really do anything for me. I am noticing i am smoking out of habit. I plan on completly quiting next wednesday i herd its alot better trying after 2 weeks but i dont plan on buying any cigarettes after this pack. But i had a little accomplishment today. I would always made sure i had a cigarette when driving my son to school. even though i am only 4 minutes away but i needed that cigarette to drive him to school wich i felt bad after i dropped him off thinking that his teacher can smell smoke on him from me. But yesterday morning i drove him to school without a cigarette and came back home and went back to bed with my youngest son not needing a cigarette. so far went to 2 packs a day to a pack and a half in 24 hours doesnt sound like much but i am noticing the difference and i am positive this time i can do it for my kids and myself [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]9/12/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] -6 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] -240 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $-39.60 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 0 [B]Mins:[/B] 0 [B]Seconds:[/B] -34715
