Congratulations to Flamel -- just celebrating his 1 year smoke free anniversary today.  Great job!

Anyone else hitting a milestone?

Wish I could say the same. Seems I "quit" every week. Would love to have a quitting buddy!

Congrats to Flamel!!!

Congrats!  Keep it up.  It is all will power.  What has worked for me - thinking of the negative smoking does to our bodies and finding a positive to replace it.  I have been smoke free as of Dec 4 - since 1995.  13 years...    ANYONE CAN DO IT - it just takes determination.   YOU CAN DO IT...

Congrats to flame, good job buddy, keep going :-)

i will reach my 6 months milestone soon

Great going flame. I actually celebrated my one-year as smoke free on November 22. Right now I am trying to take off the 40 lbs which have resulted from not smoking. Actually I have taken off the first 3 lbs.

Yes!!! Six months smoke-free in January! :)  Happy holiday & healthy eating to all!

A year is wonderful... but now I have to do something about all the weight I've gained lately - oops!

Hi everyone!  I just started dieting for the first time in my life.  I just turned 50 a few months ago (I also joined the 50 somethings group).  I have gained almost all of the weight I need to lose in the last 2 years...since I quit smoking.  It will be 2 years on January 1st.  Yep...it was my New Years resolution.  Anyway, 6 weeks later my husband passed away.  And then 6 months after that I shattered my ankle and it to forever to heal, so I was not active for a long time.  It's only been just the past few months that I have started getting around better and exercising more.  I've been hitting the YMCA hard since the day after Christmas and am determined to lose these extra 40-50 lbs.  But quitting smoking has been the best thing I've ever done for myself...even with the weight gain.  Now I just need to keep at it!  It's so nice to know I'm not alone.  Thank you!
