Now I'm Too Fat
Posted On 09/10/2007 10:38:21 by DeWilda

I really thought that I could quit smoking without gaining a ton of weight. Well, guess what? NOT!!! I have gained at least 8 lbs since I quit and it really shows on me. I  find myself eating when I would usually be smoking a square. I know, I know.....some will say "eat a piece of candy" to me that means a whole roll of lifesavers or creme savers. Others might say "snack on fruit" I do. Veggies too, then I'll go and eat an oatmeal creme pie. It's also suggested that I exercise. Always too tired for that. Maybe I'll get just as sick and tired of this addiction as I did with the other one and just stop. Oh, wait. I'm talking about eating, right?? Can't just stop doin' that. Ok, sooooo, maybe I'll just decide to to treat myself even better and pay attention to my eating habits. Change them even. Yeah, that's what I gotta do. Right now I'm close, pretty close to 300lbs. My God, I never saw that number relating to my weight. That's a huge #. Oh no, I can't get there! No. No way. I've decided.

Don't let the weight gain discourage you. You're doing great as it is! Take one day at a time, one step at a time... and lean on God while you're at it. :)

Hey, your weight gain will even out eventually. I gained 3 stone since giving up alcohol but I wasn't eating whilst I was drinking so I needed to gain about half of that. I have never had a gaining weight problem before now but I know it will sort itself out in time. I love food now especially cake & ice cream, would rather be eating than drinking which is good. You'll do great just keep at it.

ok....i quit.  i now watch what i eat and exercise.  never did either.  it is a change of thinking and life style.  i took me about 6 mos to get into a routine of exercise.  it's worth it.  I FEEL SOOO GOOD.  you can do this. 

i gained 10 # at first.  it doesn't need to stay on or climb any higher.  start the change now.  you are more than smoke free.  you LIVE healthy now.

God Bless.  xo
