  12. I think it is good to try not to gain too much weight in the early stages of a quit but don't obsess over it. You can always lose weight later. You can't, however, lose some of the illnesses that come along with continuing to smoke. A lot of people picked up exercise early on to keep them occupied and keep their mind off of smoking. Replacing a negative habit with a positive one is great. I was also told early on to drink a lot of juice and water in the first few days to speed up nicotine leaving the body. Drinking a lot of water can also help keep you feeling full and less apt to snack too much. However, please remember that quitting smoking is the healthiest thing you can do right now. Gaining a few pounds in the early days is not the end of the world. Many people who have quit have later picked up exercise and leaving an all around healthier life. Quitting smoking is a huge step towards a healthier life and can lead to other lifestyle changes down the line.
  13. Congratulations Hellkat! That first month is the hardest and you are doing great. Thanks for sharing your quit journey with us.
  14. Welcome to QuitTrain, mightyboosh. Quitting smoking is a wonderful thing to do and I hope you realize that you were much better off during your seven years quit than when you came back to smoking. You are right. The excuses you have for going back to smoking are illogical. Smoking offers nothing positive at all. Everything that comes with smoking is poisonous and deadly. It is good that you see that. Stick around. Read and participate as much as you can. There is a lot of knowledge and support here that you can gain to help you become a non-smoker for good.
  15. NOPE !!! Happy Friday everybody

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.
