I will be turning 34 in December. I remember when I turned 30...i almost cried! I'm over it now. My husband is 40...so he makes me feel younger. Plus, i make fun of his age and it makes me feel better about mine :P Hang in there.....When you turn 40...you'll look back and wish for 30 again.

Weight Loss	I am diving in head first!!! I hope I remember how to swim :P	Aug 20 2008 15:45 (UTC)
Last night, I went to kickboxing class, picked up the kids and headed for the park. I was disappointed, because I was only able to run about 15 minutes. I compensated by walking 45 minutes. I am going to increase my calories today. I ended the day yesterday at 1229. I'm being strict on myself at first, because I have a lot of nervous enery since I've quit smoking. I don't want to turn to food! Thanks for all of your support!!

I can't wait until I hit 8 months. i hope that it gets easier. I am determined to drop the smokes, though. Mainly, because I want to grow old and be able to spoil my grandchildren. (if i ever have any) I heard with quitting the metabolism slows. I'm thinking if i drop my daily intake to 1200 calories, then I will be ok. I'm going to test myself to see how long I'll be able to run. I'm hoping to make it longer than 5 minutes!!! I appreciate your response.

Thank you! I know it will take time and I am prepared for it. (i think) I'm going to try running tonight. Woof, it will be tough. I'm 33 years old and I've been smoking 17 of those years. One of my lungs might fall out cough Great job!! It doesn't matter how it has taken you....45 pounds is something to be proud of!
