Cartons are like $60 here.........but I'm still a quitter. Over 3 months now!

Well done Riggers! That is fabulous! You should be proud of yourself.

Well I would be..........if it weren't making me gain weight. Pffft.

I know what you mean. I gained about twenty pounds that I have not been able to shed. I need to get it off because the extra weight it hell on diabetes.

I'm not diabetic yet..........but I might get there soon! I really need to shed a few too. Maybe we could start a weight loss thread. lol

Haha! Might be a good idea. I think I'm just a hog, I can't seem to stay out of the kitchen! :p

To think at the beginning of this thread he said packs were $3.50 a pack........over $6.00 (with tax) by the time I quit~5 years later....and I was nearly 2 packs a day!

And I darn sure don't plan on eating any less! Maybe I could just do hubby's workout I keep thinking about doing since he never really got to. A little exercise would do a body good I'm sure :)

Probably right Rigs, something that really gets the heart pumping. Cheers.

Okay BDox, in 12 days it will be 6 months since I quit and I weighed myself on Saturday and I had gained 40 lbs since I quit smoking. This is getting out of hand! So started dieting as of 3-10 (Sunday) and as of this morning I've dropped 5 lbs. Oh just 35 more to go. lol

On Sunday I did workout 1 of his workout videos for 15 minutes and today I am still hobbling around!

Well done Riggers! You can be very proud of yourself. I hope you like celery.

Nah, it's Atkins. No carbs, all the protein you can stomach. So, it sounds great in theory, until I have a sugar craving and fall asleep sitting up.....

Wow, tough enough to kick smoking but then to kick sugar too. Ask me how hard that is. Been there done that. [diabetes]

Oh that sucks Bdox! I just wanna kick it for a little while!!! I would hate to have diabetes! I just want to eat what I want to eat and work it all off but that means I gotta get up and work it off. This would not have happened if hubby was around pointing out every little dust particle I missed..... lol

Yeah, but the truth is that if you can kick it for a little while, you can kick it. Getting rid of tobacco and sugar would probably be among the very best things you could do for yourself. I mean for your health. Next thing you know you might take up jogging!

Anyway, good luck with your effort. You are tough!

alright all I'm done smoking today is my quit day
hope everyone is doing well with there smoking
or lack of same :)
