  1. I recommend the blood type diet

     

    I tried all diets and never stuck to them, but the blood type I have and the year I have been here I have actually lost weight and maintained it!

     

    I stick to it 80% and 20% I eat and drink what I want, and i use that 20% mainly when eating out or take out I have never felt like it's a diet or I am restricted and that's why I think I have been able to stick with it.

     

    I also take a daily good probiotic

     

    I don't do any crazy exercises, just walking mainly.

  3. In the beginning I avoided them like the plague as much as I could, not that I hated them, more I was in the abstaining mode and I did not trust myself!  :dash2:

     

    Then it was disgust at them or even (envy) and if I had to walk past a smoker mainly puffing away to an entrance! I would walk past holding my breath and nose and making myself look silly! go home shower and change clothes, paranoid smoke and nicotine was stuck all over me!  :bad:

     

    Then I was fascinated by them (I was educated on nicotine addiction by then) so I just watched them from a distance and watched the truth unfolding right in front of me! confirming what I had learned.  :ph34r:

     

    Then I felt pity for them and wished they could be free and this is what I feel to date.  :(

     

    I have been through many of these cycles on my journey from envy to disgust to pity

     

    and now I am grateful, that I am just a bystander....

     

    stick to NOPE remember why you quit, what your journey has been like and bring your mindset back to pity for them or disgust, its nothing personal to them , they don`t have to know what you are feeling or thinking BUT it is crucial to YOU and your quit and it is very PERSONAL to you.

     

    I bet if you had a conversation with any of them, most would change places with you in a heart beat! (the ones not in complete denial of course)

     

    so flip the coin and the question should be - what do smokers think when they see an ex smoker? 

     

    answer- Envy of you and amazement  :o

     

    hold your head up, back straight as this is the road we walk now!  B)

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
