  4. "The Flat Earth Society has members all around the globe."
  5. I was amazed at the amount of information available about smoking and its harmful effects after I quit. When I opened my eyes and was willing to listen, the truth was right there waiting on me. Denial is a major component of addiction.
  6. Welcome aboard Pixel and congratulations on quitting. This is a vital realization in the quitting process. The realization that addiction has only as much power as we give it and we have full control over the choices we make. That moment when you see that the big, bad monster is in reality a toothless tiger. When you realize there's nothing to fight or fear, you can pretty much just cruise along and enjoy your newfound freedom. Enjoy the ride.

  8. Good work Jackie. Top shelf quit.
  9. Typically when people hit a metabolic wall, they will want to go all out. Eating less and exercising more. And typically this only exacerbates the problem. Try cycling between periods of eating less and exercising less with a focus on rest and recuperation and a period where you eat more and exercise more. Also, variation is always good. Dieters get into a pattern where their food intake is practically identical from one-day to the next for months on end. The body adapts quickly to the monotony of it all and you hit a point of diminishing returns. Even if you have a very specific set-point of calories per day you want to consume, you can try to average those calories out over the course of a week rather than consuming the exact calorie count everyday. I don't have anything to add to what ExTex wrote here, I just thought it should be repeated again. Cardio is an important facet of any comprehensive health plan. However, for fat loss, strength training is superior to steady-state cardio.

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.
