Re: losing weight and kicking the habit.

[Guest guest]

Barbara and group;

Barbara you're so refreshing to read hun. No way you lost a hundred

pounds. That is so great. Thirty pounds is ok sweety. I know I

hate the extra 5x weight too. I love prednisone. Can't get it

though. I am feeling ok. Today has been an ok day. Yes I would

choose pain free also.

I quit smoking today. I thank you and everyone for the

encouragment. Today has been fine for pain. But I was sad all day

when I wanted a cigarette. I just told myself sorry, (great sadness

come over my face), But no cigarette for me anymore. I would feel

sad each time cause I wanted a cigarette so bad.

I know it will be alright soon. It's just waiting to be over the

addiction. I have no other choice to quit or die. I want to live

and my new grandson to get to know me.

I hope Cathrine and Shirley made it. I been sucking on hard candy

all day. I have a nicatine patch on. Everyone is smoking outside.

It's warm here during the day about 55 degrees so no one will freeze.

They already know I will grab their cigarette if I see them smoking

and inhale their lit cigarettes, so they are keeping far away from me

when they smoke haaaaaaa. I told them what wanted to do and

I am sure I couldnt control my self either lol.

I am so glad it's almost bedtime the first day is the worst. My

sadness will soon turn to joy as I save all that money, and save my

life. Barbara Your a darling lady thanks for the compliments. I

love to read your post to people, they are so filled with love and

sincerety. God bless and take care.

gentle hugs

Congratulations to you, Clora, for trying again! This time you're sure

to make it! I'm glad that the other smokers are not smoking around you,

because that would be too much temptation. Gather your angels for

comfort, and they'll help you make it!

I still have a pack of cigarettes, and it doesn't tempt me one bit.

It's a special pack, though. It says on the front, " Apollo/ Soyuz. On

the back it says this in Russian. They were issued to commemorate the

first joint flight of the U.S. and Soviet space programs, back in July

1975.

The pack would be in much better condition, but shortly after I got

them, my young son took the cellophane wrapper off of it.

Sue and group;

Thanks Sue, I feel like I am giving up a very long old friend. I

held in my hands for many years. Turns out cigarettes are not my

friend and I just have to get over him. It hurts but time heals all

wounds they say.

I am gathering all my angels for protection from this stalking enemy

cigarettes. Everywhere I turn it shows up. My purse, my jacket it

wont leave me alone. I smell the house already. I been cleaning

some. The house smells like a ash tray. I didnt smell this before.

Oh how sneaky it is. It is here and was hiding everywhere in plain

sight. I will conquer this aweful demon that haunts me, it will fade

outside, I won't have this in my house anymore.

Right now I am not going to worry about losing weight. I am so

hungry I could eat every thing in sight. But we havent went shopping

so everything has to be cooked lol ( lucky me lol). I don't cook big

meals any more. My husband is at work and the days he works its very

small meger meals. I will start changing eating habits in a few

weeks hopefully. My husband is thin and lean no matter what he eats.

Hi Clora! Thinking of you and praying for you in your battle against that demon

nicotine. Right now you are doing the very best thing you can for your health

by not smoking. Don't fret about the weight, in fact, go buy new clothes, ones

that don't smell smokey! Consider joining a support group thru your local

hospital, that can really help. When you're a few weeks out from the cigs, we

can start losing weight together. I have a ton of baby weight to get off of me

and we can share tips. For now, eat what you need to, you're in a great

struggle and if it takes a few extra calories to get you thru, that's a ok!!!

Hugs, Kate F

Hi Clora - I'm so glad to hear you are trying again to " kick the

habit " . Its not easy, but it CAN be done. And I know you can do it.

Just take one day at a time, one hour at a time or one minute at a

time. After 72 hours the nicotine is out of your system. Drink lots of

Orange Juice (if you can) and water to help flush your system.

You mentioned before that you smoked while you were on your computer.

Are you able to sit somewhere different while you're on the computer?

Change up the routine, if you can. For me, sitting outside while

reading, after a meal and driving were the three toughest spots when

the craves would hit the hardest in the beginning. So, I would not

read outside or sit in a different chair if I did sit outside. I would

find something else to do after meals and I got some really good

smelling air fresheners for when I was in the car, kept the windows

rolled up and cranked the A/C.

I'm so happy to hear that your family is willing to smoke outside -

for your health. That will go a long way in helping you. If they are

bored indoors, maybe they could wash the curtains or paint the walls.

Anything that will help them to stay busy while inside and also get

rid of the smell at the same time.

A friend mentioned that after being smoke free for over 6 months, she

realized that this was her first smoke-free Christmas. When they went

to put up their artificial tree, she kept smelling something and

couldn't figure out where it was coming from. It was the stale

cigarette smoke on her Christmas tree! So, you see, the smell hangs

around for a long time.

I liked Barbara's analogy. I also would rather be pain free than thin.

I also would rather live smoke free than die. Go ahead and cry if you

want. Giving up smoking is like losing a friend. But don't mourn too

long. That damned ole' nicodemon is not worth it. Hang in there, Clora

- YOU CAN DO THIS!!..........Doreen

Kate F. and group;

Thanks so much Kate. THats great, we can lose weight together. I

been in bed sick most of the day. Went to sleep a little bit,

watched tv and cough cough.

I been chewing on celery and carrots today. I had to eat eat eat. It

was the only way to take my mind of smoking. Well it's the end of

the second day. Wow I am so proud of myself. I was smoking 3 packs

of cigarettes a day. I cut down a few weeks before I quit the fisrt

time. So I was on a pack to a half pack a day. Everyone is really

helping me. Thanks you guys so much. God bless and take care. Keep

praying for me.

Doreen and group;

Its been 2 days and one more day to get the nicodemon out of my

brain. I did it before Doreen. Once for a year and than again for 3

years. I didnt even want one when I restarted a year ago. I thought

one or two cigs wouldnt hurt. Here I am just trying a couple cigs

got me hooked that bad.

Thanks Doreen I really like to hear you guys support me quitting.

Going shopping tomorrow if I am not to sick. I will get some orange

juise. I love organge juice anyway. I was so hungry these last few

days and no groceries in the house. Only food that has to be cooked.

I was eating everything I could find. I can't believe I was eating

raw celery and carrots haaaaaaaa.

Sitting at the computer is not hard for me cause I don't smoke that

much at the pc. So I don't think of cigs here. I am reading my post

people sent than getting ready for bed, its bed time. I am so happy

another day and smoke free.

I liked Barbra's anology too. I hope I am not getting pneomonia

again. I had it last year. Good night. I just have a few posts left

to read.

Remember too that protein helps you feel satiated. Maybe get some protein

powder that you can mix into warm milk when you're feeling snackish. I do this

with the chocolate stuff and not only does it seem like a sweet treat, but it

makes you feel full in between meals.

on them until the hunger goes away.

Dennis, you crack me up!! At the same time, I would say that your

No, , I wouldn't do that. In fact it does work for me. I lost 10 pounds

recently using that very plan. I started eating breakfast, cereal and mixed

fruit, then another snack/meal in the late afternoon, then the Ice Cream and

Cookies about 3 hours before bedtime. Right now I weigh in at 174#, it was

182#. It's not my fault it doesn't work for all of you, wouldn't that be

nice??? LOL

Testosterone - the one main difference that allows you to eat cookies

and ice cream and still lose weight. If it wouldn't make my voice

deepen and my facial hair get worse, I'd say give me some until this

weight gets down to acceptable levels. But, since I was born a female

and enjoy being a woman, I'll deal with the curves and pass the ice

cream and cookies onto you - well some of it.........Doreen
